Strange News

The Friday Five will have to wait while more pressing matters are addressed, but I did want to quickly share a sliver of good news that I've neglected to mention.

Remember this fellow?

After weeks spent in a local shelter, and a few days of downtime to recover from a cold, Strange P has gone home. Not here mind you - we could not accommodate him in the long term. But a couple from Stowe, Vermont met him, heard his story and fell in love. He has been residing with them for a couple of weeks now, and I am confident that this is the last I'll hear of him.

I'm ok with that. My heart is happy. Thanks to all who tried to help spread the word, and to Petfinder for making the connection that led to his adoption.

Next week is wordless. I have recent pics I want to share, and I dare not deface them with cartoon balloons.   :)

Happy weekend to all!

  8. This made me a happy dog knowin' that Strange P is no longer well, strange.

    I'm sure he will make this couple a wonderful companion since you taught him that not all 2 leggers are bad.

  10. It always warms the heart to hear of happy endings for our animal friends.

    What?! No defaced photos next week? What will we do for our zing of daily humor... maybe I'll have to go to the Onion's website instead. (JK!)

  36. Hi Guys! Sorry I have not visited in ages! I've joined this thing called Google Reader but I'm still finding it hard keeping up with all my friends (I really think my human should give up her day job and just help me do blogging stuff full time!) Anyway, it's nice to catch up on your posts when I do finally get here. I LOVED your "cartoons" with Mr President!! :-)
