Reggie ~ His Guest Selfies

 We have a sweet guest to show off today.

His name is Reggie and he often 'visits' the salon where petcretary gets her hair cuts. He  was there this past week, and petcretary cheated on us...oh well, maybe that is why there was so much chaos at her workplace the past two times she was there, BOL! 

(Her building was sold by the original company to a new one, and now everything is in flux and chaos mode...eventually sooner than later she hopes, it will improve and all the tech stuff they need to do their work well, will improve. Right now the only thing working well was the time clock for punching in and out, LOL!)

This past Friday was oldest brofur's  birthday, but we couldn't have a proper get together for him, because younger brofur is out of town...so sometime in the next few days we will share a yummy meal somewhere in a restaurant of his choosing...better be good! Maybe just maybe we will get a doggy bag?? We can hope and dream, right?!

Here is Reggie:

This cute visage of Reggie makes petcretary sure there are dachshund genes in Dalton, too.

We couldn't let Reggie own this post, so here we are too, BOL!
Dalton: I am tattling on Benji now...Petcretary was cleaning up a bit in the yard, and Benji  came running out of the woodsy part of our yard with something hanging out of his jaws...he looked a bit proud of his prey, but petcretary made him drop it...it was a young red squirrel...poor thing. Petcretary gave it a funeral...and found two huge digging places under one of the yet to be burned wood piles...so the little beastie had likely gone in there to hide, but the stubborn terrierist known as Benji dug it out. He is relentless...much to petcretary's chagrin. I won't tell if I was helping him or not....teehee! We will spare you the picture evidence...

On a side note, petcretary won this fun shirt from the gifting topia. She won it in a contest that Ms Ann from Zoolatry had. She thinks it is great, and it fits well, and it is in one of her favorite colors. Hopefully she'll get a lot of use out of it. Thanks for having that fun contest, Ms Ann!

Dalton"s Gotcha Day Selfies

Today is Dalton's Gotcha Day! He came to live with us in 2017, so he's been here nine years now! Sadly we did not know him until he was an adult woofie, which may contribute to the fact that whatever baggage of his former life he still has not completely unloaded...maybe he lost the key...

Anyways he is full of beans, spit and vinegar...silly at times, ready to give a kiss, or to beg a scritch, or to bark at whatever he thinks needs a warning. Unfortunately, he still is fearful of his pawppy, when he is not sitting down...walking down the sidewalk stirs up awful memories in him, and he even raises his hackles at times....or gives a nip to his ankles. Whereas when his pawppy is sitting in a chair, he runs up and almost demands scritches! Pawppy feeds him his food and treats...who knows what goes on in his wee doggy mind. At least he has a good forever home with us, since being gotted.

And we love him, he with the huge ears, the almost constant wagging of that wee stump of a tail, and the permanent formal tuxedo that he wears! He loves his way bigger than him little brother, Benji, and they play well together, wrassling, chasing or doing zoomies in the yard...and to the annoyance of petcretary, digging big holes as they try to catch varmints in the yard, especially moles...sheesh, they damage more with their digging than the moles make with their trails and breathing holes...BOL!


Anyways, Petcretary made this card for him, celebrating his Gotcha Day, the first day of the rest of his life! And also celebrating the fall season!

This is the wee pup that Petcretary saw one day in 2017, as she went into the pet shop to get  something for MJF who was still with us back then.
Getting a scritch and a giving a paw in thanks.

I love you, Benji! Here  is a kiss! Thanks for coming to live here, too, my very own little brother! (Even if you are almost twice my size, BOL!)
We are hopping in the Sunday Selfies Bloghop, hosted by The Kitties Blue, at The Cat On My Head.

Pirate Selfies, Chapter Two

 Well, we have some more pirate selfies, and some different  AI enhanced ones, too. Petcretary wanted to go outside and make new pirate pictures, but Friday she had appointments and the lawn was in desperate need of getting mowed. It was almost dark when she was done. Saturday we had rain and mist and it was just altogether a dreary day, so no picture taking sessions that day either...not that we minded, BOL!

So here we are, un AI'd...and the AI ones follow:


Here is one of the original pictures that AI changed into pirates:

Then we had yet another rendition of another picture:
Another edit of one of yesterday's images.
This was from the sidewalk image. Looks like Dalton got muddy when he climbed onto the beach, BOL!
That's all folks! Avast! Ahoy! Yohoho!
We think we won't be on any boats or beaches next time we do selfies, BOL!

Yarghhh! Selfies and Pirates!

Yarghhhh! Ahoy! Avast!
Ahoy hearties 'n mateys! We be late again...we need to make th' scribess who scribbles fer us swim th' plank or somethin' like that. Argh! So we growled 'n yowled to her to get a movin' wit' th' selfies 'n scurvy pirate posties...but no, she went astray to swab th' decks elsewhere 'n she went somewhere else to gather in swill 'n provisions... 
So here be our newest scurvy pirate images, along wit' th' selfies that were taken to make th' band 'o pirates' artworks. 
We be fixin' to fire 'tis scribess we own, 'n get a new one...but well, then who gunna swab *our* decks 'n furbish th' larder wit' grub 'n provisions...'n um...who gunna keep our poopdeck 'n head spit shine. Maybe well just gift her a dose 'o our spit 'n vinegar to set her straight...'n to get her to notate our tribe works when we need it. We do have paper 'n pen 'n a jolly typewriter as well...Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!  
Now we be goin' to get back into our galleon 'n sail away...through all th' seven seven seas to find lovely booty 'n lot 'n grub 'n maybe a keg or tow 'o spiced rum, we have depleted our swill 'n spiced grog from al 'tis scurvy pirate partyin'! me but ur heads gunna be full 'o aches 'n maybe worse on th' morrow...so then we gunna once again lay low 'n let th' wench aka th' scribess do her not so piratey thin's. Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!! Yarrgghhh!!
So here be our likenesses for your pleasure...some be flashbackers and some sent to th' place known to th' scurvy peeps as AI, Yohoho!
This is NOT AI, but it is a flashback from about 4 years ago...
Just for fun we are adding our former blog stars as pirates:
Bos-n Minkorossa-Rumpelmeezer
Captain Pipo-Fang Pirate-Master-Cat
Mr Jack Swashbuckler, Barkaneer
Since we put our own images into some art enhancers and AI we are joining the Caturday Art Blog Hop.

In Memory of Kozmo

Kozmo, beloved kitty of Barbara and Alex at Cats-astrophic  Events went missing a while ago, and his Mom searched along with many others to find him, but sadly to no avail. She thinks he may have become prey to a large owl, that has also taken other people's cats. So horrible and sad.

Anyways, we made this memento to honor his memory. Rest peacefully, Kozmo, you will be loved forever.

New Angels

 We are being wordy on Wednesday, because we have newer angels to let you know about. Some of you actually might already know them, but anyways I made mementos for them.

First is Mirko, a feral cat that Mr John and his coworkers cared for over many years. Mirko was noticed to be very ill, so he was kindly removed from his feral group and warmly loved for a brief time before flying away as a now healthy angel kitty. You can read about it here, and here.

Mirko
Earlier,  near the end of August, Hailey from Sognafaret left her earthly home and went to live at the RB, with her many furblings.

We are joining the wordless Wednesday blog hop...even though we dd have liots of words to woof at you all.

Time For Hugging On Selfie Sunday

It was a quiet boring week around here...which petcretary says is actually a good thing.Next week ought to be a whirlwind, as *she* has something on the calendar for each day, phew!

We are still enjoying summerlike weather, and with some good rains our grass is gree, thick and juicy, as well as growing like the proverbial weeds. And yes we do have lots of weeds. We wonder what our winter will be like as there are acorns by the hundreds all over our yard, and the squirrels are having fun burying most of them...at least the ones that *she* doesn't see to pick them up. She throws them into the far back woods so the critters can eat or plant them there,

 Today is Hug Your Hound Day, not that they don't deserve hugs every day...(And we are terrier dogs...BOL!)

Anyways here we are, hugs and all.

Hmm...we have a wee photobomber, BOL! (Discovered when I went through all the live images of the  'Live Photo', to find a good one to post...)


We are hoping to see lots of huggables at The Cat On My Head who are our hosts for this fun weekly feature!
