Vote for Toronto Cat Rescue!

Poppy hard at work

Please take a moment to visit the following page and vote for the Toronto Cat Rescue.

Founded in 1994, the Toronto Cat Rescue is a non-profit, volunteer organization that has been helping homeless cats where ever possible. My sister had the opportunity to adopt from them, and got a wonderful, loving companion. Poppy, the kitty, was on death row, but TCR pulled her, and found her a warm loving home in my sisters arms.

Please take a moment to register and vote at the website below so that the TCR has a chance at a $25,000 grant that would greatly help their organization and the homeless cats that they support.

Still not here...

So, since I'm still being kicked out of my house on Saturdays for open houses, hubby and I thought a trip to the zoo with the neighbours was in order. MUCH better than hanging out in the car (that now has that subtle dog smell. No, not from Brandy. For what ever reason she always smells like soap and not dog. The other one, well,  let's just say his odour is rather unwelcoming in small spaces).

I'm actually surprised I was able to find time tonight to actually sit down and make a post - 4 showings (and much car time) later.

My favorite animals, you ask? They are, of course, the big puppies (in this shoot the wolves and dholes). But they're all pretty cool in their own way, I'm just biased to canines, what can I say.

Without further ado, here are the fruits of my labour after about 3-4 hours walking on a rather blustery day through the Toronto Zoo whilst being kicked out of my house.

Hubby's favorite animal. Can't blame him, they're pretty impressive.




Hmm, I honestly don't remember ever seeing jellies at the zoo, so this was a new one for me.













This is a Dhole, in case you're wondering. Very vocal little guys.
