Not So Wordless Wednesday: Outtakes

Taking photos for yesterday’s blog post was interesting because someone kept sneaking behind the photographer and trying to get into the goodies from The Natural Pet Company that weren’t in use…

It must have been that intoxicating catnip smell. Not to mention the plastic bag itself! Pierre is actually as much of a fan of plastic bags as is he is of toys, so you have to be careful… or listen for the telltale plastic crunching noises.

Pierre: There’s no cat around here trying to steal anything. Go back to taking your pictures.

He even made off with the top torn off of the catnip bag. It was madness behind the scenes!

Special Notice!

Since you’re reading this on the internet, you have heard by now about the devastation from the floods in Colorado. As of Monday, flood conditions are spread across 200 miles, covering 15 counties. 9 people have lost their lives. First responders have rescued 2200 people and over 500 pets, and over 11,700 people are evacuated, with hundreds of people and pets staying in using 26 shelters.

Many shelters aren’t pet friendly, and local humane societies are opening their doors to take in displaced animals during this unprecedented emergency. If you have been wondering how you can help, the following shelters are doing work to house or provide supplies for displaced pets:

  • The Longmont Humane Society started an online fundraiser specifically for the displaced pets. You can make a donation here.
  • The Humane Society of Boulder Valley has been taking in pets and is taking donations here.
  • The Larimer Humane Society is accepting pets and housing some lost pets from the heavy flooding that hit Loveland, CO. You can make a donation to them here.

Thanks to The BlogPaws Disaster Response Network  for sharing this information.

    When we get goodies it’s a free for all here.

    We didn’t know about the floods. But we’re now sending our very best purrs to all those affected.

    MOL! The mom always has a hard time taking pictures of us when we’re reviewing foods or toys. We never cooperate!

    We’re purring loud for all those affected by the terrible floods.

    MOL, Pierre! You make reviews so much fun for your Mom! 🙂
    The floods at Colorado are devastating and so hard to watch. We’re glad the local humane societies are doing their best to help.

    Pierre, you are the pillow of our admiration! Good werk behind the scenes.

    And I (Ayla) wanted to compliment you all on the good observation in your comment at our blog. Yes, that was my dining spot. But Marley learned to jump up there an eat my saved food. And when he jumped down onto the waterbed in the middle of the night while TBT was sleeping, it was like a cinder block fell from the ceiling. So now I get my meals on the floor with the door closed for 10 minnits or up on the high windersill what Marley cant get at (yet). An since I no longer eat up there, its a good sleeping spot again. ~ Ayla

    Its a bit like that around here too! Break out some snacks or nip and craziness ensues.

    Those floods were awful, and our hearts go out to everyone affected, especially the poor animals.

    There’s always at least one troublemaker no matter what you might try to do. But Pierre looks so innocent! Purrs and hugs, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
