I will try to get video but Douglas now has a sweet potato dance. I started them on dried sweet potato pieces and he wasn’t sure at first but now he loves them and rejoices over them, throwing them in the air and hopping about before devouring

This is Zebby. He finally managed to catch his tail. Super proud of the accomplishment and would like to pretend no one saw the part right after. 12/10 (IG: zebbythegolden)

Upgraded her to a donut because it’s a lot easier to navigate and more comfortable. Saska is feeling a bit better and has a lot of energy today.

The Portland Frog army has now infiltrated Tulsa, OK and they’ve made an unlikely alliance with the T-Rex infantry and Sharks on Hoverboards mercenary forces.

This is truly terrifying.

Instead of a cone of shame, we’ve tried instead using a travel pillow to keep the dog from scratching her stitches. She can get around much easier but now she looks mournful like her connecting flight has been delayed. AGAIN.

Fame, for Diane Keaton, was never an excuse to look away.

PETA called her “a true friend to animals,” a phrase that may have suited her better than some honors. It was friendship, after all, that defined her approach—not ownership or pity, but solidarity.
