Fresh opportunities for the best pets… hope everyone gets some good pets today.
Oh my! I had no idea a striped possum exists! How lovely! Pic of a pregnant Virginia opossum in North Texas. Guess she was out in the day because she was HUNGRY!
For those who want to read this clown’s sob story, here’s the plea on GiveSendGo. From the paltry $1300 in donations in 6 days, it appears people aren’t feeling too bad for him. I’ve found if someone’s parents name comes he child after a gun manufacturer, 99.8% chance child will be a douchebag.
Not working on that today, but thought you might appreciate this mini project I’m working on. Ha!
Could be ‘89. Several friends lived GWAR, but I couldn’t get into them myself.
In addition to his name, “outside”, “treat”, and “crunchy treat”, he knows “stop”, “Stop it” and “get down from there”, but chooses to ignore those unless you get out an envelope with a loud, crinkly window and shake it at him.
I have a mama with a litter of 5 + a couple of old guys in my backyard which is smack in the middle of the massive Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. Also a few skunks and many possums. My house backs up to houses with acre lots, they really like it here. Mama peeps in the door if I’m late with the food.
Grackles always win- brash, bold, loud rusty gate sounding call, love parking lot French fries. I believe the one I’ve “pictured” is a great tail grackle.
I had a potato plant spring up by my fence where I’d thrown some overly sprouted potatoes I’d forgotten about. Sadly, my yard you eliminated it.
Backyard buddy in suburban North Richlands Hills, Texas. I have a family of 6, plus some others that come and go.
Happy Father’s Day to ALL the Dads who always tried to do their best for their kids. Happy Father’s Day to ALL the Dads who took on extra kids and did their best doe them. Happy Father’s Day to all the “Free Dad Hugs” dudes- you know who you are. Missing my Dad who would have been 80 this year.
30 minutes ago I was trying to explain to a 9 year old what a newspaper was. I was showing him some local newspaper clippings of my Dad’s 1960s HS football and track and field exploits and he couldn’t process what the clippings had come from. “And everybody read them? Was he famous?” No, baby…
Mine can be “just a little baby” and a “handsome gentleman” in the same sentence.
Me, whenever that ONE co-worker won’t shut up. Eye contact = encouragement so I pick a random spot to stare at.
All Judas Priest fans deserve to see this glorious 80s image of my brother’s face from his 6th or 7th grade school picture superimposed on Rob Halford’s body. I treasure it and keep it in a safe place so that it never gets “disappeared” by him. Breakin’ the Law, indeed!!!
Sometimes the #cat holds hands lovingly, other times the murder mittens come out and hang on tight.
The eternal cat question- “Why do you disturb me whilst I bathe?” #catsky #catsofbluesky
It’s bad luck to compare dead kings to mere mortals, especially to someone with a belly like that 😜
