Pretty cool cats but I don’t know how a zoo would adopt him out to someone who lives in a flat without a yard.
I’m not even sure I like the idea of him walking down the street. So many things could go wrong because he’s still young and hasn’t matured yet.
He definitely is a beautiful guy!

Not many people own houses in Russian cities. Apartment is the default living space. Finding someone qualified and living in a house (probably in a village) would be tricky...

So is it called cougar, not puma, in English?

I found this tiny patch in my front yard and told my husband and gardener not to pull it!![emoji23]

Happy Sunday all.

Not the best picture, in fact, pretty bad. But i was able to capture a pix of our masked midnight marauder. In reality, there were two little marauders helping themselves to a sunflower seed snack.

This one here (pix) sat in the flower pot where i have seed for a good 30 minutes stopping and resting and sitting and standing. All very cute. His buddy ran off.

Is he still young or is that their normal size? Good you’ve caught him on camera! So cute!

That was a Baaaad pun!
I have to go to hospital next Friday for an xray. I will have been hopping around for 6 weeks by then so I am hoping they will let me have an orthopedic boot and start to weight bear which will make life a lot easier.
BUT when I left the hospital the physio told me I would be non weight bearing for 6 - 10 weeks,so I could have a bit longer in plaster yet.
No idea when I'll be able to drive again - even with a boot I won't be able to do that.
Will know more next week.

Waiting for more news on Friday then! Fingers crossed. And arms, legs, toes, eyes... for good measure!

Well, I have 7 sulcatas all together, 3 babies, 3 juveniles and 1 adult.
Now I have to put her enclosure back together. She is gorgeous. Hardly any pyramiding. She was well taken care of. Too bad for the situation, she had a very loving and caring family. We will keep in touch.

She is absolutely stunning! [emoji173]️[emoji173]️[emoji173]️ 7 sullies is a whole tank division!!! [emoji33][emoji33][emoji33][emoji23]

Good afternoon everyone!

The internet is rubbish up here in Buxton... soooo slooooooooooooooow

It’s tipping down with rain, but we have been for a pub lunch. Excellent roast lamb, Yorkshire pudding, roast potatoes, carrots, beans, broccoli and gravy And I may have had treacle tart and ice cream for dessert

I woke to another text from John which started Good Mornooning. It’s so good to hear him sounding like normal Let’s hope he can get back online soon.



So consider John’s wibbles passed on I have also done a phone number exchange between John and Adam so hopefully they’ll be back in touch shortly.

@ZEROPILOT Ed if you message me your cellphone number I will do the same for you

Enjoy the rest of your day. We get back to our lovely fast broadband tomorrow evening x

More great news!!! (Apart from your internet connection.) Please convey to John a ton of return wibbles from me. [emoji173]️ (I’m still not letting my hopes run wild...)

I’d have loved your pub lunch.

You will be in perfect form for Easter - Assistant to Peter Rabbit

Flopsy, Mopsy, or Cotton-tail??

 

[Kristoff]

Thank you so much for helping my family. You are an angel <3 hugs

You’ve clearly looked so well after that gorgeous girl!

 

[Kristoff]

Another nice feature is the option to download high-quality prints

Did you know you can downloaded a free, high-quality digital print of John James Audubon's avian artwork from.

A perfect and timely tip -thank you! - daughter is learning about birds in science and has asked for some hummingbird pictures.

 

[Kristoff]

The way I am now able to swivel chairs around on one leg while kneeling on them to change direction in my kitchen, I'll be in perfect form to join a troupe of circus acrobats too!

A new career? [emoji23]

 

[Kristoff]

Phone number sent.
You can share it with anyone that asks.(Like that might happen)

Makes me want to call you!! Too bad I hate speaking on the phone — I feel I sound better in writing [emoji4]

 

[Kristoff]

It would help if there was less of the wool spider’s knitting (if she exists) around...I think there have been so many of us sick she feels the need to make sure we are warm comfy. And she foes forget we have fewer legs... remember last year’s sock pile?!

Who could forget! Glad the hedgehogs decided to wear them though — less stomping noises at night.

Good Monday All.
It is going to be a good day today. It is raining, need I say more? Have an awesome one.

Congrats on your rain! [emoji85] Have a lovely week, Carol!

We are promised a few days of rain here too.

My biggest news is daughter had her special lesson in the Royal Danish Conservatory (which they offer once a year for free to any child recommended by their teacher). She was the youngest participant across the board, and she did pretty well. She wasn’t shy and was very surprised the teacher at the conservatory was telling her the same things as her own piano teacher. [emoji23]

 

[CarolM]

Never [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

So tell us, just what kind of Saturday would be your ideal Saturday?

Oh so glad it went well for her. And aren't they always surprised when they hear the same things you have been telling them for ages coming out the mouth of someone else. Although they only tend to follow and or believe it once someone else has stated it as well.

Hi and welcome to the CDR!
It must be quite a wrench for you to part with your sully but Littlebit is in good hands, and it's great you'll be able to keep in touch and see how he's getting on.
Hope to see you here again soon.

Yes indeed, at the same time it was easy. Cheryl is a wonderful woman in person and I have no doubts that Littlebit of nothing will have a much better home then I could ever provide.

 

[LittleBit]

Hi!!
So sorry you had to rehome your baby.
It’s so awesome that you can keep in touch!

Yes exactly, poor Cheryl had to deal with my eldest son tear up at the end but Cheryl handled it well. She's a wonderful woman. I am sure she will be having visits <3
