Ark Animal Sanctuary – Week of October 5, 2020

Ark Animal Sanctuary – Week of September 21, 2020

Lately a lot of kitties have gone missing. It seems like we get messages or phone calls daily.   There are so many predators out there and they are coming closer and closer to town. At the sanctuary alone we have seen bobcats, lynx and yes even bear.

Primordial pouch

Have you ever seen a cat with a big sagging belly?  My cat Zoey, whom I had for 18 years, at one time weighed in at 19 pounds and her belly hung and swayed back and forth when she walked.  I always called her “fatty cat.”

A dog’s eye view of social media

I have a lot of friends that love dogs as much as I do. We always “dog talk” daily and laugh at the funny antics our dogs will do and the things we think our dogs would say if they could talk.
