Woof Woof Wednesday

Sometimes a certain pouty puppy around here willingly poses in her beloved window.


Sometimes that same puppy refuses to look at the camera.


That's when you resort to toesies shots, right?


Astrid and all of us here wish you a wonderful Wednesday!

Doodle of the Day:

Did you know?
Did you know that cats and dogs walk in what's called a digitigrade manner? Humans, on the other hand, walk in a plantigrade fashion. Weird terminology, huh? Digitigrade animals, such as cats and dogs, walk on their toes. Plantigrade species, like us humans, walk on the soles of the feet. The fact that cats and dogs are digitigrade makes their toes very important for them and their ambulation. This is also, therefore, why declawing can significantly and painfully affect the way a cat walks. Let's keep those furry toes intact, because they're not only adorable, but also incredibly important for our kitties and pups!

Astrid, if only there really WERE pies out that window!
Declawing...bad, very bad! Now we know how harmful it is to cats, so let's spread the word that it's a horrible thing to do to a kitty.
