The Mega Pawsitive Fundraiser

[mama africa]

I'm thankful that Buddy had a great poop this morning, and he doesn't sound as congested as usual.

I'm also profoundly grateful that, by the grace of God, Buddy continues to overcome so many challenges. Yes, some days are better than others, but every day is still a blessing.

I'm happy that this will be Oscar's 14th Christmas with us. We seem to have a knack for adopting or taking in cats with significant health issues, and use up their nine lives all too soon. So this is a wonderful new experience for us to have a furry senior citizen ruling the house with an iron paw.

This one is even better, @cheeser

The last three months I forced myself to make a selection of photos taken on trips I made in the past. I decided to share some with the TCS members, because of their high level of cuteness.

This is a baby llama in Chile.

Enjoying more great posts and pix!
A big HAPPY BIRTHDAY to you, @segelkatt

The high winds have died down here, a real blessing as there are at least 3 major wildfires in So. Cali and the hero firefighters and first responders have their hands more than full. Feeling good that the folks up at the Wildlife Waystation in Tujunga Canyon are pros at this, not because they've become so through many fires, but because they have so many precious lives in their care. *PRAYERS* for ALL in the fire zones! and most especially for all the animals and those who care for them. Also for the staff of the Skirball and Getty Museums, which house priceless works of art and history.

Just so grateful that we are safe.

What a nice picture, @Shane Kent !!!

Maybe you can ask other TCS members to borrow their cat to make a giant Cat Sled. My Missy is in good condition and ready to go

So, I have this awesome volunteer that comes in on Wednesdays and his wife loves to bake and she always makes stuff for the staff. Today it was eggnog rum gingerbread houses:

Here's what it looks like now at my lunch because teachers in December, lol:

And that's my positivity for the day.

My pawstivity for the day is IT'S HUMP DAY!!!! Halfway through the work week even though that doesn't count for me seeing how I live on a homestead (small farm).

This may seem like a very small thing to be happy about, especially considering some of the other great reasons everyone else is giving but...I just found my Main Mouse after hours of looking for it. I'd jumped up to answer the door and apparently threw it under the bed. It's such a relief because Back-up Mouse is a grumpy old thing that likes to go where it wants, not where I tell it to go.

 

[foxxycat]

Yes it is hump day and finally almost over-want my couch and a good book or movie..Yay for relaxing after work!

Is there such a thing as a small happiness, margd ? I think that's a major good thing, personally.

Lunch time for the Three---and me! Looking forward to that. My usual -- hummus on a pita bread, some of my favorite Moroccan olives, a banana, and a cup of coffee. The Three will have a poultry selection.

I remembered to post the Question of the Day for today! Last week, NCIS wasn't on, and the phone was on the charger, and I totally lost track of when I was. No NCIS last night, but the phone reminded me. OH, and a dear, sweet neighbor is coming over tomorrow to help me assemble a couple of bookcases and a desk!

@Shane Kent I bet the cats would enjoy the ride!
@basscat glad YOU are alive after the "Scene From Christmas Vacation" thread!
Best wishes to all for PAWsitive mind, PAWsitive vibes and PAWsitive life!

 

[rubysmama]

I know it's only 19 days till Christmas(!!!), but I'm pawsitively thrilled that all the rain we had today wasn't snow.

 

[tarasgirl06]

Just posting a pic of my two boys - can you tell they're BFFs?

Enjoying this wonderful pic, @pippapurring -- what sweet little faces! Wishing my 3 were affectionate to one another like this, but grateful they love ME, at least!

NEW YORK 1303 most importantly were THE folks here in California wearing BIRKENSTOCKS or FLIPFLOPS with those winter jackets???? I live here and find footwear choices by ANY AGE GROUP a hoot....A friend went to NEW YORK for New Years and every picture had snow on THE GROUND and BIRKENSTOCKS!!!!!

 

[Alicia88]

I had a nice, long nap. I love sleep. Sometimes I wonder if I have cat DNA. Maybe that's why I get along with them so well. Lol

I know it seems like a teeny tiny pawsitive comment but I took my first holiday gift to the post office today. On my way out I held the door open for someone with many more packages and offered to help him carry them in. He thanked me profusely. And just for good measure, here's a pic of my rescue pride and joy.

 

[Max's Human]

KUDOS Neely for being a kind hearted stranger, the WORLD needs more deeds of human kindness!
What a GORGEOUS kitty and the picture looks like a professionally done picture♡♡

 

[krisrath11]

It was freezing out today at work! I can home, took a hot bath and am now covered in Fluffy critters. They love their mom and want to keep her warm lol.

 

[betsygee]

I had a nice easy day--some household duties and then a long walk. When I got back home, I noticed the first paperwhites have bloomed.

 

[tarasgirl06]

betsygee how beautiful! Miss paperwhites, which we had at our Mojave home. I was so surprised to see them come up -- the original owner of the land had planted them. Here they are:

After cats, I'd say flower and plants are my favorites! *Oh, and computers and smartphones, of course*

I am so jealous of your weather right now! I’ve dreamed about living in California, but I like my current location, to stay close to family. One pawsitive about living in a cooler climate is that snow is so pretty! I love walking through the woods to see trees dusted in glittery snow.
