Here's a pic of Maddie having a think on the bed.
What was on her mind? Probably wondering about the atmospheric conditions that made her sunpuddle so diffuse that day. She was an intelligent cat. If she were here now, she'd be telling me to get on with thanking people! And so, I shall.
Ellen of 15 and Meowing has stopped by at times and commented. She's got a lovely blog with lots of links and some nice pics. I am particularly fond of Snowball in her after-the-lion-trim state and the Joanie in the box pic. Joanie is a lovely beast!
Feeling like you've not enough animals in your life? Head over to The Painter Pack! What a magnificent collection of creatures! The diva-dog CoCo Bean just had an 11th birthday. Sophia Belle (Maine Coon) also celebrated another turn around the sun by taking over the huskie's new bed, as did Sammy, a very Border-Collie looking fellow (although he celebrates it in his own home). Sammy seems to have *some* feline in him, as he apparently likes perching on the backs of chairs. Beautiful Ninja-kitty Salem is yet another animal with a birthday in the past month. Must be hard buying all those presents!
Over at Alasandra, the Cats and Dogs Scylla is having a moment with the rose bush (which seems to have apologized for that unfortunate incident with the tail...). Beautiful photos! Socks is quite the handsome gray tabby (with socks!). They've got a couple of canine buddies, Fenris and Tuiren, who seem to act like bouncers at a club, letting no one in unless Scylla and Socks give them the okay. What good guys.
It's not the same at Peeballs and Pooplogs without Orbit. Handsome, wonderful, melty Orbit. We know how you feel, people. We really do. We didn't know Orbit, but I think I would have loved him, too. The writer of the blog is going through a lot of the same ambiguous feelings that LadyRanger and I are regarding finding another cat. I hate it that they are wondering these things because they lost their beloved orbit, but I take some comfort from the fact that I'm not unique. Thanks for writing about it, sir.
Here's another pic of Maddie looking thoughtful. Probably thinking that I should do a better job of thanking folks. Wish I could, but I'm doing the best I can. Thanks all!
john: maddie would say you're doing a fantastic job; giving high paws and shout outs to each and every one....
writing a bit about the blogger and their companions is as dai$y would say...beyond FABulous..
I know each and everyone appreciates the time and effort it takes to go to such lengths; highlighting and linking back to the blog itself, I know we did and we've made some new friends along the way....
the second photo is SO maddie; thanx for sharing it ♥♥♥ she is and always will be a beautiful girl ~~
