He's trying his best to look intimidating, but it's hard with such a lovely, fluffy tail!

How could you not be with this little sweetie coming to visit? 🥰

Fantastic - life may be tough, but you're tougher!

Hope you enjoy a wonderful birthday, Betty! Although the cats get all the internet attention, we know it wouldn't be possible without you! 🥳

I hope you're feeling better today!

It was unforgettable. Got to see a lot of places and I love riding on trains so it was a dream trip for me. Hope you're having a good Tuesday so far!

I love all those smells too, and paint as well! Guess we're both weirdos. 😉

Yikes! I don't think I'd do that on two feet, let alone a bike!

Many years ago, in 2004. We took a train from Beijing to Ulan Bator, took the Trans-Siberian across Russia, then crossed Europe by train to reach Belgium. It was a great journey!

Sounds like he's surrounded by people who love him fiercely, and that's the best thing you can say about a person. 💗

They do seem very tranquil and calm, and don't mind putting up with us humans. But I think if they're threatened they can probably defend themselves quite well. I would love to see one in person - I was hoping to see one when in Mongolia but alas, only dromedaries!

I know they were used on the Silk Road route, so they had to be able to face all kinds of weather conditions. But we do tend to think of camels only in the desert, since that's what we mostly see. They're beautiful animals!

It's interesting, and makes you think about what's important in life. Typical of other books I've read translated from Japanese, it's a very direct writing style - short sentences and no flowery language. I hope you enjoy it if you find it!

My gif didn't attach! Attempt 2:

Don't be silly!

Cartoon of two hedgehogs, one is on a teeter-totter that's under a tree and the other is stuck to the bottom of a tree branch by his needles. He's saying 'bugger.'

It's the 'closet full of clothes and nothing to wear' syndrome all over again.

oh I missed that! Since I've been watching it's been just her (?) on the next alone, but now I see they're both there again. I like your pun! 🥚

and don't forget the 'genius' part!

You need that wine the way the Royals are playing now.

👏 wow, that's a lot! It's a good idea to make a ta-da list of things you got done that day, because often due to circumstances the to-do list goes by the wayside. Good job, you!

I just finished reading 'If Cats Disappeared From the World', so I've been thinking about the same kind of thing.

'engineered for survival' but all I see is cuuuute! You just want to snuggle up against him.

I saw TDI busy with the cup, and also thought that it's a hopeful sign! That's a great picture of the sunlight on the nest!

You seem to be having a very good game day! Maybe consider buying a lottery ticket.

This isn't even the most decisive and important war America has ever fought in my lifetime.

So nice to meet you, Fritz. I hope your mom is spoiling you today (who am I kidding, she probably spoils you every day!)

Hope you can catch your breath and relax on the flight. Are they serving alcohol?

Oh, and she's (he's?) gorgeous!
