Recently I saw a news story about a Michigan police department who promised to hire a cat if they reached 10,000 followers on Twitter. I thought for sure it was some sort of April Fools joke. Guess what? It wasn’t. The Troy, Michigan Police really did hire a cat! Mind blown! A quick Google search, […]
Has anyone else noticed the eerie similarity between Cats and creepy Elves? No, not in appearance! But I couldn’t help but notice that they share many characteristics. Cats and Elves both sit unmoving in various locations around our homes, silently staring long enough to give you an unsettled feeling, and judging your every move. Also they […]
Sorry cats, after centuries of debate the verdict has finally been reached. Dogs are indeed smarter than cats! According to an international team of scientists from six universities, dogs’ brains have more than twice as many cortical neurons than cats’ brains. These neurons are linked to thinking, planning and complex behavior. Thus making dogs smarter […]
I did it! I grew an apple! Ok, so technically my William’s Pride Apple Tree grew the apple. But it’s my tree and my apple! The Deer didn’t win! Earlier this summer the Delinquent Deer not only ate the leaves off my little tree, they snapped some of the branches completely off. I thought for […]
There we were greeted at the Hedgehog Mountain trailhead with a sign no Dog wants to see. A Bear was seen enjoying our hiking trails! I really can’t blame him. Bear in mind, Hedgehog Mountain really is a nice hike, and there’s nothing on the signs that say, “No Bears Allowed.” Perhaps he decided to […]
It has come to my attention that despite living at my Grandparents’ lake house for a year now, my Kitty Cousins have yet to go swimming! Mind Blown! If I lived there I would roll out of bed every morning and jump in the lake. In fact if I could I’d spend my whole day […]
Up until now Asa and I thought the biggest things we had to worry about in the woods were accidentally stepping on Fairy houses or being led over a cliff by a mischievous Chipmunk. All that changed though on a fateful hike at Ravenswood Park, when we learned there are more menacing creatures lurking in […]
Asa here. Chuck Billy put me in charge of today’s post because he’s trapped in the backyard. This may come as a shock, but my supposedly fearless big brother, like all superheroes, does have one tragic flaw that renders him powerless. Chuck Billy’s kryptonite is Snakes. One slithered past him in the tall grass this […]
Dognabit! The Deer have gone too far this time! Oops, sorry for my potty mouth barking. It is just that the Deer delinquents who have been hanging around in my yard have really crossed the line. They vandalized MY tree AND then had the nerve to snort at ME like I was the one up […]
As you know, I take my job as guard dog very serious. Not to brag, but I have protected my family from Squirrels, Deer, and the occasional UPS delivery guy. However, never before has anyone brazenly broke into my home like the winged intruder who tormented my family yesterday! Oh sure people from away think […]
