I found a nifty post on this website entitled Seventeen Things Worth Knowing About Your Cat the headline intrigued me and I thought I would check it out, I mean you can never know too much about cat’s in my opinion. Obviously I was expecting something like this..

1. your cat is blah, blah

2. your cat wishes it could blah, blah

But when I got there I saw wonderful graphics and a nifty pictorial on interesting cat information. You should check out the page I thought it was quite original, I might have to try the paw at something like that.

Hooray it’s girl scout cookie time!  As you all know girl scout cookies are delicious and I placed an order for the Lemon and the Trefoils, they have a new flavor this year some sort of Cranberry one called “Thank you Berry Much” sounds good but I decided just to stick with the two. Sadly when they get here I know I won’t get to eat any cause me mum doesn’t give me people food. Phooey

I’m sure you are well aware that cookies aren’t good for pets anymore than for people, we can succumb to many of the disease you folks can. So eat them in moderation and if you can’t see you way to giving us a wee itty bitty nibble then have decency to eat them in the other room.

FYI- President Obama signed the Girl Scouts of the USA Commemorative Coin Act authorizing the minting of 350,000 silver dollar coins in honor of Girl Scouts in October 09.

A portion of coin sales will help fund the renovations on the Juliette Gordon Low Birthplace in Savannah, Ga (GS Founder) it will be issued in 2013.  I thought waiting 6 weeks for the cookies  was a long wait. (I guess it takes a lot longer to bake a coin than a cookie)

Please support your local Girl Scouts by buying loads of yummy cookies and later on when they’re done some Girl Scout Coins.

Gotta run,  (really I want to play outside)

I’ve posted some sad stories this week about abused animals and children but also some happy posts too. There is such a mixture of good and bad in the world and while I prefer to just stick with happy news sometimes it takes a shock to get us to notice that bad things are happening around us. If we don’t hear about it then well how do we know how to fight it.

It’s not likely that we can totally wipe out animal cruelty but we can stand up for a abused animal if we see it happen. The majority of folks have cell phones  with cameras now and you can certainly snap a picture.

Now I’m not telling you to put yourself in harms way, but if you think something isn’t quite right investigate a little and never accuse anyone of anything without some sort of proof.

There’s is a difference between seeing your neighbor beating his cat or hearing the cat yelp because your mom stepped on you coming out of a room and didn’t know you were laying there (happened to me this morning) because you never lay in that spot ever.

Do what you can to fight abuse, be kind to us we can’t talk and tell you how we feel.  And watch for us laying on the carpet where you would least likely expect us to be…

Last September during a party a man feed 5 lives kittens to his 18 month old Pit Bull and filmed it on his phone. Thankfully (if you can call it that) he he denied the inhumane act but they had the video to prove he was lying. I want to call him names but I will refrain, that is just sickening.

Those are tears for those baby kittens

Well I’m nearly speechless, I read a sad report today about a lady that had abused and tortured animals to death which is horrible enough, but it get’s worse she made her young children watch her kill them.

They found 42 dead dogs in her backyard alone, their investigation also stated they found evidence of a cat whose mouth and nose was taped with duct tape, then hung from the child’s bunk bed.

The woman had 6 daughters left at home and they are being taken care of by relatives, God bless them.

Speechless yet?

Now here’s something you don’t see every day 25 animals in casts. This website owner gathered all sorts of pictures of animals in casts.

It’s good to know these owners cared so much about their pets they took them to the vet and had them attended to.

Wait until you see the porcupine.. Go on you know you want too.
