Favorite Animals

Izzi ... Mini Aussie
I have had pets, dogs and cats mostly, all of my life, but I have never had a pet as smart, versatile and loving as Izzi was. She was the center of our lives for the 14 years that she was with us. So yes, a favorite animal ... they don't get any better!
Friendly and Playful

Loving
Though Izzi was our dog, we bought her for our Granddaughter.
At the same time that we had Izzi, we were blessed with a pair of boy kitties, born in the office closet to a cat I had rescued. We took her to Spay and Stay to get her spayed and they said, nope ... can't do it. She is about to drop kittens ... after the three little boys were old enough to be separated from their Mom, we found a home for her (Latte`) and for one of the little boys. The remaining two became Da Boyz ...
two goofy and fun loving little inseparable boys. So they became the cat versions of our favorite animals.
When it comes to wildlife ... the Fox is a favorite. We had a family of Fox living in a grown over lot across the street from our house on the lake. The babies were left on their own when Mom and Dad were hunting. The Kits played while Mom was away :)
This is Peek-a-Boo. She lived in the tree in our back yard and became something of a family pet. Here she is bringing her babies to show us :)
The original Dumbo and the original with the Dumbo my parents tried to replace the original Dumbo with ... that was never going to happen :) (above)

What a bunch of sweet critters!
So many beautiful photos of adorable animals! Izzi is wonderful, what a sweet dog. Those raccoons look exactly like the ones who come to visit us almost every evening in the summer and fall. Beautiful animals, but a good idea not to get too close.
I hope you're doing okay. I'm missing your visits.

This Canadian is horrified at the idea of becoming the 51st state and I am sick of hearing your duly, democratically elected leader talking about it in the inane manner of a five year old. Izzi was much smarter, less devious, more loveable and more predictable. The next four years are going to be very difficult, and even were something to happen to tRump you would be stuck with Vance and that might be even worse. The world will never forgive you for electing these people with all the seats of power firmly in their control and the Extreme Court in their back pocket. You have sealed your own fate.
