Lots of cute critters around here, but I have to say I enjoyed the skunk the most. Any critter that can raise their tail and clear a room can be my runnin' buddy any day!


Three things crossed my mind, in no particular order:
Its a very small room
The critter can jump a l-o-n-g distance
or, let's not go there...

Grace always raises Her tail, but then She doesn't have racing stripes on Her back, just on Her chin.

Pretty Cat Steve, Yours? And what's His or Her name if the Cat is Yours?

That's Macintosh. He is 17, and the same cat I posted a couple of years ago that was sitting at the table with his plate in front of him.


Steve

He was much younger then.

Artist turns dead pet into a flying helecopter!



I think every caring pet owner will be doing this in future.

No, I doubt it Es99, I'm not really crazy about this idea. I sure wouldn't do this.

One side of my brain is saying that that is wrong on several levels. However, the other side of my brain, the dominant side, is causing me to laugh uncontrollably!

I'm with you on that. I was just going to have my kitty made into soft slippers when she passes on, but now other possibilities are opening up..ones that can traumatise the children in the process. It's a win-win.

All this reminds me of the old story about Roy Rogers (you kids can Goggle the name).

He had his dog Bullet stuffed when it died, then he had his horse Trigger stuffed when it died. His wife spent her remaining years hoping Roy went before she did.
