Animals

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

They never grew out of the fairy tales about wolves and ranching.

LOL, I keep the canned cat food in a cabinet off the kitchen by the side door. The cabinet door doesn't have a latch, just closes with a spring. Well, the current cat ("Gigi") loves to grab the edge of that door and let it slam shut gently. Enough to be heard throughout the kitchen and contiguous family room, where I spend most of my time. I got tired of the antics and started putting a brick in front of the door. But then Gigi got ill and I had to take her to the vet. She's now confined to barracks and I have relented and let her have her door slamming all she wants. The other thing she's started is to climb onto the desk in the family room and sit down right in front of the computer screen. A little can of Dust-Off solved that problem. Now all I have to do is pick it up and show her and she gets out of the way.

They actually are cute, but I'm surprised they're out in daylight. Never heard one trill before.

They are terribly nearsighted. Sadly, where I live now they are everywhere. My dog has gotten it twice at night. In the warmer months I'll see one at least once a week on my block.

Yeah, Lady GG said her reward was "no questions asked" but that undoubted doesn't mean the cops won't ask questions since the walker got shot. I'm not sure I believe the "found tied to a post" story, though. Naaaa, I'm sure. I don't believe it.
Bingo.

I can't find it on their website, but there was a hilarious segment on last nights local CBS news. The story was about a bear up in a tree who couldn't/wouldn't come down. "Rescuers" arrived and tranked the bear who fell out of the tree. From what looked like a long way up. For what looked like a hard fall. That's not the hilarious part. Apparently the studio people (and especially the animal-loving weather chick) had not seen the segment and were aghast at the falling bear. But the lead news guy got it together and continued his script, emphasizing that the bear was not injured and was safely relocated, but among background comments of "Oh sure it is" ... "that was awful" ... "he hit so hard"... etc. Then they flipped to the weather chick, who was still standing there agape, saying "wait...I have to follow that?"

Here's the rest of the bear story. Colorado Springs. This doesn't show the actual fall, but apparently the bear really is OK.
