RN Awesome!
I swear I either heard about an evacuated wedding on the news or saw an article. The people were air lifted. Was that this fire?

RN I finally got a Venmo account. I was sick of people saying they weren't signed up with Zelle. It seems like everyone has Venmo, though.

RN I was just thinking about how a part of my dog sitting job came with such an interesting perk for me that I never expected. I meet and become an important person to every kind of person there is. Young, old, men, women, every skin color and race, rich, struggling, whole families, couples, singles, everyone that falls into LGBTQ, disabled, and more. Needless to say, they are important to me as well in many ways. Besides helping me pay my bills, some have actually become friends.

RN, that’s super nice, Naja.
I love dogs (and cats) and I love hearing all your experiences with them.

I was lucky that my jobs at CSC and Transamerica have a a huge diversity in co-workers and several of my volunteer gigs did as well.. It really enhances life, for sure. And my city is divers as well.
It is super nice that your love of dogs has led to enriching your life with diverse dog lovers. (and even diverse dogs)

Then maybe we have to sit back and immediately exit Youtube until they find a better business model? I am experiencing the same problem.
Perhaps if we don't buy into it, they will have to change it?
I don't actually know, but I suspect we can all rage against the algorithm before the algorithms take us under.

Watching the dedication of most pairs of birds is amazing, and bald eagles are so special.

I was saddened to hear that Jackie had died. It was fun watching the live feeds from Big Bear as she laid her eggs and watched over them with her partner Shadow.

Naja, what made you ask that?
No.
My cat doesn't like other cats.
Plus she is my last pet. If I outlive her (she is just 15) and if I am still able, I will foster cats for a rescue as long as I can do that.

How is Gunner doing? I hope they are getting along. Gunner is adorable, I always had Labradors. Lucky for me I get to see a black lab a couple of times a month. Jersey is a guide dog for John, who is a fantastic guitarist and sings and writes songs. Jersey is very laid back but perks up at snack time.

RN Pretty much all the tiny dogs including Gunner are getting along fine except that Cappy likes to let out a little growl or snap if another dog comes up to her too fast. But it was only the first day of their week. She'll get used to everyone. She and her brother want to sleep on top of me changing positions all night so I didn't get much sleep.
I asked if you're interested in another cat because out of nowhere my brother is getting really sick from cats and we are trying to rehome his orange female cat named Chicken. He's had her since she was a tiny baby and she's always been an indoor cat. I had posted a picture about 5 years back of a baby pool filled with tiny orange kittens when they got her so she's still pretty young.
My mom took their other cat Willow some time back because Chicken liked to pick on her. So it's just as well you don't want another when you already have one. You'd probably end up with Jackson on "My Cat from Hell". hahaha

Adorable.. But I have aged out of fresh cats.
There is a cat food available that is actually working for some people with allergies.
Purina Pro Plan Live Clear. But maybe they have tried it.
A friend from years ago was allergic and had 3 cats but she would send them for baths and apparently that helped.
I went through the hell back when I adopted Angelina and my black cat Critter just loathed her. Angelina was bigger, younger, big claws, while normally sweet Critter was declawed, but Critter ruled.
Angelina ended up with cancer, and Critter lived to be almost 23.
Katniss isn't fond of other cats either.
Chicken is gorgeous!
