Sunday Pause (Paws): Trying To Fit In

11 Replies

It’s Sunday! Time to kick back, relax, and do some thinking.

I‘m not sure how long you have been blogging but have you ever noticed how sometimes you seem to have a lot of interaction (or Likes) on your posts and sometimes hardly at all? When it is hardly at all it makes you start to wonder why. Is it that your blogging community is busy and just not seeing your posts or maybe they just don’t like that particular post?

Some of you have been with me for a while on this blogging journey. You know that I have changed things along the way as probably many of us have. Lately it kind of seems like I am not getting a lot of interaction. It made me start wondering if it could be because I have been using cartoon images a lot more often and not writing as much. I started thinking about that and if I should try to change my posts. But I realized I really don’t want to, at least not right now, because I am finding joy in creating the cartoons.

Thinking about all of this made me also think about how we worry about our popularity or if we are fitting in. Not just with social media but with everything. But is that really what matters?

Today is my sweet little Cino’s 12th birthday!

She is not a pet…she is my baby, best friend, comforter, & entertainer. She is a partner in our mission to change how the world views animals. She is family and so much more.

Happy Birthday to her and prayers for many more! 🙂

Sunday Pause (Paws): AWWW

4 Replies

It’s Sunday! Time to kick back, relax, open your mouth and let out an “AWWW.”

I‘m going to keep this post short mostly because the picture says it all. But also because I am writing this late at night and I have been busy with other things (nothing like waiting until the last minute to get your taxes done). It was a busy week at work, we had a crazy spring winter storm, and, as you know, my mom has been sick. Calgon take me away!

But then you see a picture like this and you can’t help but forget about all of that stuff for a minute and say “AWWW.”

It’s Cino’s Birthday

Eight years ago this little angel came into my life. She was so confused at the Humane Society when I was visiting her in the adoption room. Both of us unsure of one another. But then there was a look and a “meow” and that was all it took for me to make up my mind.

She spent many days hiding behind the toilet in her new home. Then one night I woke up to a cold wet nose. It was then that we became buddies, it was then that we became family.

It is my honor & pleasure to celebrate her today.

Happy 11th Birthday Cino!

Sunday Pause (Paws): Photography

18 Replies

It’s Sunday! Time to kick back, relax, and capture life’s great moments.

One of my friends is a photographer. I’ve seen what great work she does and have seen many of her photos of people with their pets. So I thought maybe she could take some pictures of Cino & I. I had it pictured in my head how great it would look. She found the perfect basket for Cino to sit in and a blanket to put under it that would look good with her coloring. We were set.

We decided to get together last Sunday and do the photo shoot along with just hanging out and visiting since it had been a while for us. A great way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

I knew Cino most likely wouldn’t cooperate and I was right. Continue reading →

Do Pets Know?

Today when I was walking down the hallway toward the apartment I could hear Cino’s collar tags jingling around, her pawing at the door, and her meowing. It made me smile! I felt like she knew it was me and I was coming home. In fact it gave me such a happy feeling I started walking faster and I started talking to her at the other side of the door as I was working the key in the lock. I was as excited to see her as she was to see me! After all, I get to see this cute face. 🙂

Sunday Pause (Paws): For The Season

8 Replies

It’s Sunday! Time to kick back, relax, and enjoy the season.

This time of year, the Christmas season, I spend most of my time shopping, decorating, and wrapping presents. All of it is preparation, then it comes and goes in what seems like a minute.

This year, I am trying to really enjoy the season by spending more time with loved ones. Last weekend I spent an entire day making Christmas cookies with a few long time friends. Yesterday I spent the day with my niece. We went to a craft show and out to eat. Today our family is going to see “The Nutcracker.” Great memories in the making. This is what it is all about.

It is good to remember that although there are many fun activities this time of year, the season is not about what we can get or can get out of it, but actually should be more-so what we can give. Maybe give an offering at church, volunteer at a homeless shelter, or donate money to an animal organization. There are many people and animals out there in need.
