COLD DARK ROOM

[DE42]

Saved a beautiful box turtle today. A nice bright yellow patterned one that was in the middle of the road. I would have taken a picture but it was raining and had some traffic.

Good morning, roommates!
Beautiful day here today.
Facebook reminded me of a street cat we had a while ago. I loved him. He tolerated my daughter very well.

I never named him, knowing he’s a street cat and likely to die young, but when he got ran over by a car while we were away on holiday, it came as a shock. Still miss him.

Oh Lena, you make me sad with your sad stories about street cats and dogs .... I know they are living a hard life and I know they often suffer hunger and pain and mistreatment of people.
Because of this I could and would never go on holidays there.
I couldn`t enjoy my holidays when I see suffering animals. It would causing me nightmares.

Well done. Did you help it across the road?

Well done, but take care that you are not run over. Some drivers are so regardless.

 

[Bee62]

You and me both. I will have to walk with caution over the bridge otherwise I will be bowled over by all my lost friends.

Me too..... 9 dogs, a lot of cats, 2 horses, guinea pigs and rabbits, birds and 2 tortoises.

I did I took it across in the direction it was facing and about 5 feet down the bank.

I would mostly have cats, dogs, birds and hamsters.

Hello Dipa. I hope you have had a good day too.

Some people run over them on purpose because they like to "pop" them. So sad

Oh, 40 C is much ! I can understand that you are exausted and feel hot.
We have nice warm weather, 18 C and sunshine. That is warm after the long cold winter, but 20 - 25 C that we often have in summer I like much more.
40 C would be too much for me.

In Germany some drivers like to run over cats or hedgehogs. People can be so stupid and cruel.
It is good you saved the little thing. I would have done the same.

I don't think people hit cats and dogs here purposely but it dose happen here too. Where I live up in the mountains people to drop there unwanted pets off up there and we have several strays running around. We will call animal control but sometimes they get hit or can't be found when they come.

 

[Bee62]

Just because I can..........

I like puzzles, but this one was difficult for me. I am almost tempted to send it to Yvonne to do for me, and post a picture. But I am not sure if I still have it. LOL and or if I have all the pieces. Can you imagine doing the whole puzzle to find that there is one piece missing.

I don`t want to imagine ......

 

[Bee62]

OMW. Whahaha. You might have to wait for Adam unless Dan or Mark own up to having lost it.

Why do you think it belongs to a man ??? I don`t understand.
Have a close look. It is a single banana holder / container. Keeps your one banana safe and warm until you will eat it

 

[DE42]

Idk why people think that "setting them free in the woods" is such a good idea. Most of the time they can't care for them selves and will either starve, get hit by a car, or fall pray to a predator. It's much better just to take them to the shelter. At least there they have a chance.

I have seen both birds now

They have been very busy round the box

That is unhuman. To throw your unwanted pet ( set it free ) on the street.
