Sick of the negative stuff in the news and in with the positive.

Oops! But it had a happy end! :slight_smile:

I can’t imagine how hospital staff in the ER handled that. I wouldn’t have been able to handle it because I am terrified of snakes

I dare not see that clip. I hate snakes.

I hate snakes, too, but goodness, I’d rather watch snakes than what is being shown on TV. :smiley:

They are going to have cats at the Westminster Dog Show
:slight_smile:

“I hate snakes, too, but goodness, I’d rather watch snakes than what is being shown on TV.”

I’m seeing a lot of snakes there as well. :wink:

“snakes. Why did it have to be snakes
”

@musicprnt - is that right?! Best news of the week. :smiley: can’t wait to see those purebred doggies chasing pampered kitties. :wink:

:x that Bengal in the photo!

And the cats will say “what are those things?”, especially when they see the teacup dogs lol. The cats aren’t in the judging part of it, they are in the 'introduction to breeds" part of the show
I saw a funny, satyrical piece on this, with someone ranting on about how nothing is sacred, how this is just another sign of society going to hell, etc grin.

Cats and dogs, living together-mass hysteria!

Double bonus points to @MotherOfDragons for quoting both Raiders of the Lost Ark and Ghostbusters within 5 posts of each other.

^^It’s been one of those days.

I think the cats should be the judges.

When are cats not judging ?

A friend sent this to me this morning. If it doesn’t put a smile on your face, I give up. :slight_smile:

A really nice video about not putting other people in boxes (originally from Denmark)

The Budweiser commercial with the lost puppy who finds his way home is making the rounds again on social media, but I can’t watch it because it make me cry (I have no idea why animals finding their way home makes me sob embarrassingly, but there it is).

My mom knew her and her family as they grew up in the same town. And my mother’s oldest sister’s grand-daughter had her as a professor when she was getting her MSW at Berkeley. It’s a small world.
