Misdirection

"I'm telling you, just keep eating until he leaves the room. He'll be so pleased we're actually eating hay he won't notice we pooped all over the rug."

Yesterday's Dreams

Soooo...these treats we didn't get yesterday...?

Why do I get the feeling I'm getting the same look/question every day until I hand some over?

Dark Delights

"Did you say Shady dropped by? Did she leave us any treats?"

No, sorry MrB, no treats, you can go back to your hiding place. Hang on, I gave you 'nana like 5 minutes ago you piggy bunny..!

Curious...

Anouska

I am very sad to report that my dear Anouska is no longer with us. Following a lifetime of back issues, her pain and immobility became a serious issue these last few weeks, so after exhausting all our options her vet and I decided it was kinder to let her go - at around 10:25 this morning, 11th June 2018, she crossed over to the bridge.

She may not have been a big fan of the camera, but her life with us was still well documented both on this blog and over on Big Ear, Tiny Tales. There is no better way to remember her wonderful personality and signature sun-lit flop-naps than re-visiting those pages, something I will surely be doing many times over the coming weeks and years.

My dearest Anouska. You were a special little soul that I will never forget. It felt such a privilege to be able to give you more than four years in the kind of home you wanted, after who knows what you had endured for the first part of your life. Rest pain-free and in peace, my beautiful old girl.

In Daisies We Stand

One corner of the garden has been infested by a plague of daisies. Why couldn't it be dandelions?! Ho hum. At least they make for a pretty backdrop.

"Would you like us to dig them up so you can plant dandelions?"

Hmmm...you guys, gardening/landscaping...I somehow doubt that would end productively for me.
