Not only are we fostering a dog, but we took in a stray cat. We named her Sadie and she is quite the snuggle bug. I think she really feels like she struck the lottery coming to live with us. She was very unsure of the camera and thought about slapping at it with her paw. Then she settled down and let me take a pretty picture of her.
We made the decision to help The Animal Rescue Alliance, (http://www.tarasdream.org/), by fostering dogs. Yesterday I went and picked up a small Rottweiler mix named James. He is about 2 years old and full of what seems to be endless energy. Hopefully he will find his forever home for the holidays. He is a sweet boy and deserves it.
He is recharging his batteries in this picture 🙂
Glen got a great picture of a pileated woodpecker while he was out sitting in his deerstand. They are a fantastic looking bird. Interesting tidbit, the cartoon character Woody Woodpecker was modeled after the pileated woodpecker.
This post’s title suggests that it may have something to do with the movie Shaun of the Dead…..but it doesn’t. Just a pretty cardinal sitting in an evergreen tree.
Evidence that beavers have been in the area.
It was exciting seeing that beavers have been thriving at Knob Noster State Park, but I would have been beyond excited to actually see a beaver in the wild.
Found this perfect deer track in the mud. It is the print of a doe. We looked all over to see if we could find those of a buck for comparison. No luck.
Glen and I finally got our new furniture. As you can see, Lucy and Lily both think it is awesome! Even though there is plenty of room, Lily still doesn’t appear to want to share any sofa space with Lucy. Cats sure can give an evil stink eye 🙂 My big plans for Halloween are booting the critters off the new furniture, snuggling under a nice warm blanket and watching spooky movies.
It rained buckets here all day yesterday. What to do when you can’t go outside? Take a long nap of course.
