Priceless

I love my cats and any animal God created.They deserve our care and attention simply for being themselves and adding so much to our lives.

Can you conceive of a world with no animals in it? Can you imagine your family without your pets?

What we consider a 'humble' animal; those that we raise for the purpose of killing for our tables, too often SHAME us with their own brand of compassion.

Often they learn to get along better than we do...

Animals, of all species, add a grace to our lives that we would otherwise sorely lack. 
They grace us with their humor...
lion and lioness
Their loyalty, love and companionship...

How DARE we treat them this way????
If we are SHAMED, we deserve what accompanies that shame!

Remember, this summer, to take extra special care of the animals ~ cats, dogs, cows... ~ and practice what YOU PREACH!
 Simple kindness to what we call 'dumb' animals is also simple compassion on our part. Do you lack that?
I find it extremely disquieting that in our day and age there are those among us who still need a whack upside the head as a reminder. What does this lack of compassion say about us?

Cats and Dogs ~~ Go Figure!

Usually on a sunny day I leave the porch door open to get the benefit of a sunny spot where the cats can sun and snooze. This day was heard a mad and violent banging at the door combined with a mixture of strained yowls so terrible it brought me running to the door!


My Drama Queen was have a hissy fight with the door and in particular, with what lay beyond ~~~

Molly violently reacted
It was a visit from the dogs down the lane, so to speak. 







A blond Boxer and a mini Dobi ~ friendly enough dogs but they like to terrorize the barn cats and create havoc on the dairy in general... Just dogs having fun I guess.

The frantic pounding on the door and the screaming yowl from Molly didn't take long to convince the dogs they weren't welcome and Molly, the attack cat, was ready for them if they insisted in pressing their claim.

It was hard to get a picture of Molly in action as she acted way too quickly.

This was not the calm situation presented here!
I hunted through my fridge and found leftovers the cats would turn their perky noses at ~~ so I gathered it up and gave it to the dogs.

There's nothing funnier that a dog with spaghetti on his face!

After the meal and my cleaned out fridge, they happily headed home and left the barn cats alone, who by this time had made themselves pretty scarce. I happily cleaned the rest of my fridge! Molly was happy that she triumphed over the dogs and protected her territory. 


Yes, everyone came away happy from the situation.
