Being involved with Logan is essentially having a boyfriend and a pet. Wade seems uniquely qualified to take on the challenge of rehabilitating and socializing his new rescued beau.

Flora the spaniel was keen to get some posing in on my last visit to Bradford Cat Sanctuary!

Some great photos of how Scooter likes to sit with his paws dangling off a surface. I love his big handsome Ron Perlman face.

I also got this excellent close-up portrait of Sid the Supervisor Cat looking beautifully into the camera!

If you'd like to donate towards the Bradford Cat Sanctuary, they're always in want of donations toward their vet bills and general running costs - and particularly are in want of kitten food at the moment!

War Paws evacuated some dogs to the UK two years ago when Ukraine was invaded, and has others waiting in Romania, but there's been a lot of prejudice rising against 'foreign dogs' in the UK recently, and they have had no enquiries for either foster or adoption.

If you might be interested in fostering or adopting a dog refugee in the UK, please take a look at their dogs?

This one is called Karim. I would offer to foster her myself if I didn't have a very old frail dog who doesn't need the stress of an unfamiliar dog in her house. More details.

Kiki hanging out with our bun son, Astro.

We are slowly working towards letting Astro out for more free time with the girls. Weirdly enough, the issue isn't dog v bunny, it's the girls going into Astros cage and eating his hay 😂.

A better look at our son bun, Astro

My dumb and dumber muse and model:

[scourge-lover]

Clare was raised by cats and acts like a cat. She will bop me like a cat would. She makes very cat like noises. She attempts to make biscuits. She rubs against your legs like a cat would. Do not touch her unless she wants the attention. Do not give the other dogs attention she deserves that attention more. Jumps onto everything.

She's an honorary cat.

Meant to do this on National Dog Day, but better late than never...

I lost my 14-year old boy back in February and, since I can't live without at dog, I adopted a new boy in March.

Meet Trajan:

He came from a shelter in Southern California, where he had been for over a year. They DNA tested him and discovered he was a combination of different Northern breeds so they reached out to shelters in Alaska, where I saw him on a website run by a friend of mine who finds homes for retired sled dogs.

They were calling him Pepperoni, but I thought he needed a stronger name. I also think he is a GSD/Karelian Bear Dog mix, not the Malemute/Husky and Greenland Dog that the DNA test showed.

This was his reaction to seeing snow for the first time:

I think he is going to like it here in Alaska.

We have also discovered he is unclear on the proper use of dog beds...

He believes every source of water needs to be thoroughly tested...

Balls must be stored in holes...

And, of course, no one ever feeds him, or gives him any attention...

It has been a big adjustment going from 14-year old energy to 2-year old energy, but we will get through it.

On Dogs

I think the hardest part of losing a dog you love isn’t having to say goodbye . . . . It’s the way your entire world changes without them and the emptiness that’s left in your heart when they go. unknown

Everyone listen. If you ever wanted to volunteer in an animal shelter but thought 'eh, they don't need my help, there's a lot of people there' trust me. They do need your help. Yes even if there are a lot of people they are exhausted. They get so many calls of dogs and cats needing rescue. They often take them in to their own homes because other volunteers/workers don't have a place for more animals anymore. I know a shelter volunteer who has tons of kittens at her house. Another one who feeds stray cats. People who spend tons of their own money on helping those animals because there's no one else that will do it. Any help is always appreciated, even if you can be there only once per month. So please, support your local animal shelters. They need it

Im working on drawing Stuilly dogs right now, so far I have decided on a disabled retired German Shepard (1), a Rottweiler they got as a puppy (2), a senior chihuahua that is blind (3) and a pug (4). I want another dog that is possible deaf and therefore wears a schock collar for commands etc. Help me guys please 🐒 also for names I don’t have any ideas yet, but the chihuahua is definitely gonna be the princess of the pack and Stu and Billy carry her around a lot!!
