Why Do Groundhogs Get All The Attention?

Does it bother anyone else that this big, ugly rodent gets a day all to himself?

Its just a dirty animal that lives underground. It has no education. It couldn't possibly know how to forecast the weather. What is it with humans? If you want to know when winter is going to end LOOK AT A CALENDAR!

I may be below humans on the scale of intelligent animals..... but even I know you look at a calendar to find out when winter ends.

By the way, it's March 20th folks.

Just sayin'......

So Yoda Will Be Quiet...

Yoda bugged me all day yesterday and is being a pest this morning, wondering why I don't have any cat blogs linked to Yushay's Ark. The first reason is, I don't have to! It's my blog! But...sigh....in an effort to get him to shut up, I have added a few.

I think I mentioned earlier that Yoda is this "look at me, everybody loves me, look at me" Himalayan. Everyone fawns over him. He is up for adoption, looking for a good home.Now I gotta tell you he's got some seriously piercing eyes. I think he wears blue contacts.

Anyway, Yoda here you go! Now give it a rest, will ya? Geez......

MMMMMmmmmm......fresh biscuits....mmmmmmmmmm........

Hey I've Got Another Follower!

"Nikki" just linked to me as a friend and is now following Yushay's Ark!  Way cool!  I've also had visitors from Canada and the west coast of the U.S.

This little pup is going to get a swelled head if this keeps up. Hey Doc, ya got anything for swelled head?

Morning Snow; Less Than A Week To Go

Its snowing here this morning. A light snow but covering enough that it looks as white outside as this blog author's beautiful, luxurient, silky fur covering.

I've taken my morning walk through the building. Quiet for now, but it will get busy, for sure. There's also a lot of activity, excitement and anxiety among the humans as we all prepare for the Grand Opening celebration of Noah's Ark. Day 1 is less than a week away!

There are a lot of places that call themselves "animal hospitals" but very few anywhere in the United States that truly are hospitals. This place never closes and we see patients from all over the Central Ohio area day and night. We....yeah I consider myself one of the team also. Just call me Dr. Y!  LOL

Hmmm......I wonder if I can get a white lab coat? Something in an extra, extra, extra, extra, lap dog small?

Yawn......time for breakfast.

Action Over The Weekend

I forgot to mention earlier that the Humane Society in the county to the north of us, Delaware, came flying in here over the weekend. They had with them a two-year old chow mix that was badly dehydrated and severely emaciated.

Turns out some neighbors up there saw the dog wandering a neighborhood and called the authorities. The veterinarians and techs here gave the chow IV fluids, food (he chowed down?) and water, and the pup (as I am a ..... dog of maturity, let's say ....anyone younger than me is a pup) has improved significantly. Delaware County Humane Society officials picked it up today, and are saying nice things about the great vets and vet techs here who made the difference. The chow, they told us in a telephone call a few minutes ago, is doing great!

That's why I like it here. Humans making a difference for us animals, who, let's face it, rule the world. I mean, its humans picking up our poop, and not the other way around, right? But seriously, there aren't a lot of animal ERs anywhere, let alone veterinarians working on weekends. Another fine job by Team Noah's Ark!

Now where was I ...... sniff, sniff ..... mmmmmmm ...... oh yeaaaaa baby ...... fresh biscuits!

You Like Me, You Really Like Me!

I just received my first comment on this blog. Its from Life With Dogs. Pretty cool site about three dogs and the antics they get into. Oh yeah, and there's some info about their humans, too. Thanks for stopping by guys! Hey I just noticed they are "following" me now too!!!  Way cool!

They dropped by to tell me they liked my new pic!  My site has only been up since Saturday afternoon. Maybe there IS something to this blogging thing.

Yawnnnnnn....time to lie down for a while.

Hurdles? Barriers? Miss Renee Knows None

Around 4am or so this morning I was playin' on the computer and found this image.

It reminds me of Miss Renee, the woman who owns Noah's Ark Veterinary Hospital where I hang out. I'm going to write more about her later, but she is, in a word, AWESOME.

She is someone who doesn't know the meaning of the words "can't, or "no." While humans can let themselves get bogged down in red tape and then nothing gets done, whether it to be to help animals in trouble, or even people, Miss Renee knows how to find answers, cut through the bureaucracy, and get things done.

This illustration IS Miss Renee! Later, when I'm not so hungry and ready for a morning nap, I'll fill you in on what I mean. Where's my biscuit......?
