i haven't laughed that hard in years! they shared it with me at work so of course it became a "thing!" i just love that kid. he's going to be a politician or a big shot lawyer. his arguing skills are amazing!

thanks for the great info! our favorite shelter is not a big operation but the take really good care of all their animals. they have mostly cats but they take a few dogs as well. i kinda don't think they're going to shut down tik tok but canada has removed it from all government issued phones...including justin trudeau's kids govt. phones! we'' have to wait and see what happens here. i think we know which side will vote against- just because.

i love that video SO MUCH! my co-workers said it to me every day for a couple of weeks but slowed down a bit after that! that kids is at LEAST in high school by now.

hahaha! when you're hooked you're hooked! whenever is see him looking at our shelter's website i think "uh oh." but we'll do anything for them and as i said, i never say no. they time that i was officially "the problem" we were at our neighbood pet shop getting food and litter. one sunday a month a small local cat rescue would be there with adopable kitties. i jokingly told them- "see that really tall blonde guy over there? just tell him they've all been adopted!" it became the running joke -"al and linda are here. all kitties are taken" when we'd walk through the door. one day he was in line trying to check out. i was chatting with the cat lady about some kittens - not super young but young-ish. they were left with their momma in a box on her front steps. they were all adopted except one who was licking my fingers. she said no one wanted him because he has polycystic kidney disease and will have a short life. i just said "we want him!" got Al out of line and said he's going with us. he went home and got the crate and that's how we got Avery! the shelter provided all the vet care and he had a couple of really great years with us and the other kitties. no regrets, believe me. here's a pic of my boy avery! he was so funny - jumped in the shower with me every day and would jump out an roll around on the bath mat!

one of his was -
"LINDA! did you see that cat on the news that some littles assholes shot with a BB gun?" yes, i did. it's awful!
"i'm going to get him!"
maybe call the shelter first?
click. well, the cat in question was already adopted by the vet caring for him "...but we do have a total love bug you might like..." that was chester.
another was "charlie (his co-worker) found a little cat on their porch but landlord only allows two cats! and it's winter!"
sigh. okay. please don't call me at work. just introduce us when i get home. i'd never say no. that was rosie,
so you're probably a close relation if not a twin!

are you my husband's twin? i had to ask him not to call me at work about "a cat..." - just go get them! i don't need the whole story. we've had up to six and only one was me telling HIM about a cat! but i love them all!!!

i hate tik tok but THAT was a a great idea!!! our shelter puts photos and descriptions of all the animals waiting for adoption. i might forward this to them!

thanks! she is just a bundle of joy. i'll give her a pet and some treats from you!!

she does, but it's all adorable!

she actually "talks" to us. i can ask her if she wants some treats and she'll chirp and run to her treat station! if i can't find her i walk around the house saying "meow meow Lily! where is Lily?" then i hear her chirping from somewhere and she comes running out and says "MEOW! here i am!" she's amazing and so adorable.

thanks! she loves ALL bags, especially that bag! i emailed the pic to our vet and she replied "Lily is laughing at you!" i have to agree. here's another black kitten in pink bag pic...https://i.imgur.com/q10alDc.jpg

the oldies need love as much as the kittens! we've always adopted adult cats & cats with physical issues. last years we got our first kitten! WOW!!! they're fun and crazy! with thought maybe a younger cat (not a kitten) would maybe inspire more play with the older guys...it's a picnic every day now! here's the little troublemaker who now runs the house. meet Lily! she jumped straight up from the floor into my grocery tote!

come back later. but probably not...

wow! hope you got some of nana's gorgeous genes! she looks so cool and confident as well as so fashionable. no housedresses for THIA nana! xo

more like the 1920s, i'd say.

i hope these initial poster in this will be taking some english language classes including spelling, punctuation and grammar if and when they go back to college.

i like it! i do weddings for a living and have seen sooooo much worse! he looks happy and cute.

this is far too beautiful to eat. can you save all the bits and let them dry?

it's a really interesting story! they frequently do thing like this to attempt to keep the patient's motor skills as normal as possible. there's a really good series on netflix called "Lenox Hill" about the famous hospital. part of it is about the neurosurgery team. it's so interesting and very emotional to watch. the other part is the maternity ward. i highly recommend it!

that's weird! i read the whole article AND saw the pictures. nothing gory. maybe if you're on your phone it doesn't display everything. maybe try and ipad or desktop?

why don't you read the article? it explains everything in plain english.
