Why I buy puppy chow.possum2023.jpg

Is that a possum? Adorable! I love those little guys, and I love skunks. The way they scuttle around is so cute and fun to watch. I once had a neighbor who would sneak and put cat food at the edge of our yard to feed the skunk families that came through periodically. I thought it was hilarious; my ex vehemently disagreed.
 
I’m so excited for you @monarch64 . Such happy news! I take all the date coincidences as a sign she was meant to be with you.

Thank you, @Calliecake ! I’m getting more excited by the day, but I’m also a little nervous about the puppy stage. I haven’t done this for a long time and I’m thinking of all the ways I need to puppy-proof my home as well as all the sleep I’m going to lose. Lol. It will be worth it, though. I haven’t told my daughter yet, she’s going to be over the moon. (Vet check isn’t until next week, puppy will arrive the week after Thanksgiving if all goes to plan.) I have an Amazon cart full of the basics/essentials, but am waiting to get fun collars and things until the puppy arrives so she can have the fun of choosing some things herself.

That is one of "my" possums, nature's sanitation engineers. They're so mild, I had one almost bump into my leg after eating a big meal.
I don't mind skunks but I don't court them. But my neighbor had a baby one, OMG, CUTE!

Years ago when I still smoked, I would sit outside on the patio in the evenings. I must’ve had at least 3 different troops of skunk moms and their kits walk right up next to me and pass me on their way through the neighborhood. Turns out they were denning underneath my neighbor’s deck just up the hill from my backyard. All these years later we still talk about the skunkfestation those several springs/summers. We have encroached on their territory, it’s only natural they’d take advantage of any cover or food we provide unwittingly!
 
HI:

I always think there were skunks around me....but nah it just the smell of WEED!

cheers--Sharon

Beautiful cat! I hope he's a welcome addition to your household.

Attempting to load the dishwasher in the presence of a curious kitty is… an enriching experience. :lol:
 
Oh My Goodness! so ADORABLE. Keep a photo log and keep them posted here as she grows.
And maybe not appropriate, but heck, I saw this tonight, and as an old parrot head from the 70's, it touched me since it was so recent and made in conjunction with the ASPAC, and now he is gone

It’s funny you brought that up. I am also a parrot head and I’ve known JB had Cavalier King Charles Spaniels for awhile now. That was a small but important factor in my decision to get a CKC! I love the song and the video. And I still get emotional when I hear any of his music.

I'm the same way. I went to college in Atlanta and back then, he didn't even have a band. We'd go see him at a small venue and it was JB and a fiddle player.

Anyway, enjoy your new family member. I'm sure she will bring you lots of happiness and unconditional love! (And I just noticed I messed ups the initials of the ASPCA!)
 
I’m exhausted.

Gigi having a relaxation after our walk.

And I'm just gonna say it that she has her head on is MY dog bed (I understand why Lucky loved this bed...lol)

She has by the way adjusted really well. Its helped me a lot too. But she does get lonely so I'm putting some thoughts into a possible foster after the new year.
 
@monarch64 your puppy is adorable.
Nice pics.
 
This little goofball…

I don’t leave any shoes on my closet floor except my Uggs for quick access—living with a beagle for 16 years has me trained. I do have a pair of slippers with maribou feathers on top that she is of course nuts about. Can’t wear those unless I carry her around, otherwise someone’s gonna get squished or someone’s gonna break a hip.

She’s very at home under the trees. Maybe she thinks she is an ornament.

Even the sweet face on the llama couldn’t save it!
