A squirrel? Yes, this young boy has a squirrel who just won’t go away.

Happy Thanksgiving
I know later tonight will get busier as I actually start to cook again in my kitchen, so I wanted to post this greeting to all my friends in cyberspace now. I wish for all of you a wonderful Thanksgiving Day, and many things to be thankful for now and in the future.
I would love to meet each and every one of you — maybe someday! Enjoy those you are with, and live each Thanksgiving as if it might be the last time you were together. Experience it to the fullest extent, and most important share it with others who may not have family to share it with. May God bless and keep all of you and those you love this Holiday Season.
Oh, and if your turkey should suddenly go missing, you might check out any new lamps in the house!
A Thanksgiving Poem
The year has turned its circle,
The seasons come and go.
The harvest all is gathered in
And chilly north winds blow.
Orchards have shared their treasures,
The fields, their yellow grain,
So open wide the doorway,
Thanksgiving comes again.

Happy Ending!
Watching the videocams at the Memphis Animal Shelter can be very sad at times, but when I see things like this my heart is “so happy!” At least this one will hopefully have that happy ending and Second Chance as well.

Every year, six to eight million unwanted cats and dogs enter shelters in the U.S., and three to four million are euthanized according to the animal welfare organization Found Animals.
Now American billionaire Gary Michelson — a surgeon who has invented hundreds of patented medical devices and procedures — has decided to tackle the problem with $75 million of his own cash!

Pillow Talk
What do you do when it is time to go to bed and Momma Kat is still on her computer? How do you get an “elevator ride” up that tall bed when you are a little short Chihuahua girl? You have to wait for the momma, so you just pull one of the pillows onto the floor behind her, curl up, and wait it out. Yes, this is Sophie Rose’s solution!
Adopted?
I watched on the videocam at the Memphis Animal Shelter yesterday as this lady and her daughter visited. The mother seemed to fall in love with the homeless doggie in this cage. I hope they adopted it later.
Just wanted to encourage everyone to please adopt and give a Second Chance to these neglected animals. Breeding needs to be discouraged for this very reason. Have you taken a trip to a shelter lately? If not, you will be amazed how many full-blooded breeds you will find there — not even counting the ones rescued by the different breed rescues.
Please — think before you breed. Give these animals a Second Chance please.

Where Was Humanity and Compassion?
It certainly was NOT at the Memphis Animal Shelter. I have been literally sick at my stomach finding out what has been occurring in my hometown. These poor defenseless animals have been deprived of food and water in many cases according to the records, and many died of malnourishment. I will spare everyone the picture of one poor baby which broke my heart.
