True!

Luckovich certainly has earned ‘em.

OMG!!! I LOVE-LOVE-LOVE this part:

“NO ONE makes it on their own.

Even hermits need goats.”

That may be my new Quote of the Week!!!

Thank you for this report on your kitties.

Obviously your efforts were noticed by that feral tom that he was motivated to come and seek your help for his own problems.

And the fact that he’s slowly proceeding toward healing shows how effective your efforts were and continue to be.

Terrific video!

Teaching AND verifying AND validating.

Learn something new every day!

YES, DAMMIT!!!

Accept NO substitutes OR tall tales. Accept NOTHING a Republican tries to sell you, ESPECIALLY if its first name is Donald.

And whatever is coming at you from the GOP, all you NEED to know is that it’s not based on either truth or any kind of reality.

THIS!!!

Haven’t we contributed enough by now?

THIS is the absolute most EVIL man in Republican politics.

Or, heck, just make it the most EVIL man who walks the earth these days. You’ll know where he’s just been. It’ll smell like sulfur.

Wishing you good luck and a fine time, this weekend!

Leave any expectations behind and just have a nice time together.

And don’t worry if you’re feeling a little bit rusty about these things. You’re both in the same boat, so you already have a lot in common!

We HAVE a chimpanzee to whom to ask questions.

He never bothers with us, though. He has Karoline Leavett to “handle” it for him. It could be it’s own sitcom: “Leave it to Leavett.”

It's sooooo hard to lose a good friend, two-legged OR four-legged.

Our fur babies are just that: our babies. No wonder we’re so in love with them. No wonder we hurt so deeply when they leave.

Our animals offer unquestionable warmth and companionship to us humans, especially those of us who are childless, or whose kids have grown and gone.

Rest in power and peace, Bellatrix (and please say “Hi!” To Mousetrap if you see him).

About calimary

Female. Retired. Wife-Mom-Grandma. Approx. 30 years in broadcasting, at least 20 of those in news biz. Taurus. Loves chocolate - preferably without nuts or cocoanut. Animal lover. Rock-hound from pre-school age. Proud Democrat for life. Ardent environmentalist and pro-choicer. Hoping to use my skills set for the greater good. Still married to the same guy for 40+ years. Probably because he's a proud Democrat, too. Penmanship absolutely stinks, so I'm glad I'm a fast typist! I will always love Hillary and she will always be my President.
