Lonely Hearts

June 25 is World Beatles Day!

This band was an integral part of my youth; the music, the albums, their movies.

I even saw Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band film in 1978 SEVERAL TIMES at the theater; it starred The Bee Gees, Peter Frampton, Earth, Wind & Fire, Aerosmith, and handfuls of other music stars, but had really nothing to do with The Beatles themselves.

FYI, the film was not well received, except by teenagers like me.

😹😹😹

Some meme's for your Beatles amusement today:

DO'H!

A "Young Frankenstein" joke.

😹

My siblings and I made up dances to go with every song on the Sgt. Pepper's album, and I am thankful for the fond memories.

Henry Update:

On Tuesday, June 23,  Henry's second chemo pill was administered.

No outward changes in any of his habits, for which I am grateful.

Other than a couple of seriously stinky litter box events.

🙀

Next chemo pill: July 7.

Next vet visit: July 10.

You Otter Know

"World Otter Day takes place on the last Wednesday in May each year. 

The day was established by International Otter Survival Fund (IOSF) to help draw attention to otters, celebrate them, and raise awareness and support for their conservation globally. 

The aim is to put otters on the map, and at the forefront of people’s mind!" -- IOSF Website

Otters are watercats, in my book, and they are adorable!

A few sillies:

😻😻😻

Henry Update:

The H Man is doing well.

We have a terrific med routine, and he's eating.

Look at him in the photo above; the dude really has no worries.

And that's the way we like it!

What A Bite

 On May 26, 1897, Bram Stoker's Dracula was published.

The gothic horror story is legendary, and you've got to believe that I've collected a few sillies for your viewing pleasure:

Just wait, as I've collected memes and cartoons for more monsters:

Godzilla

Dragons

Bigfoot

Space Aliens

and more!

Henry Update:

He looks innocent, but Henry bit me.

I was absentmindedly petting him while looking at my phone, and *CHOMP*!

My left thumbnail is purple, turning black, and there's a hole near the tip of the pad.

This occurred days ago, and I've taken all precautions against developing an infection from a puncture wound made by cat teeth.

As I push pills into his maw with my right thumb, we are all doing just fine.

A lesson in staying focused.

Hopeful

For Sunday Selfies,  it's Henry again!

He was much too excited, and put his snoot right up in the lens, but darn, he's cute!

I artified it and made a jigsaw puzzle; click on the image above.

Let's Hop!

Aww, C'mon Now!

I think there are a lot of us who feel this way.

Am tired of wearing my puffer coat, and how a hat smushes my hair.

Of having to wrap a scarf around my face in order to breath when outside.

Our snow shovels have rounded edges now, from being worn away on the sidewalks and driveway.

🥶🥶🥶

Let's Hop!

 

So, it has come to this!

Every once in a while, I must give kudos to folks on social media who have the same twisted sense of humor as I do, 'cause they make me laugh!

Today's topic: cat food

😹😹😹

Cuppa

International Tea Day is celebrated on December 15, in tea producing countries like India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Vietnam, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Kenya, Malawi, Malaysia, Uganda and Tanzania.

As an international tea drinker, I'll celebrate despite not actually residing in any of the above countries, and am darn glad that they grow the stuff!

Spicy

Again, must remark on how much I adore the humor found on social media.

Here's a few sillies that made me laugh; hope you do too.

😹😹😹

P.S. Not a fan of pumpkin pie or of pumpkin spice, and I wouldn't know a latte if one snuck up and bit me!

I LURV toasted pumpkin seeds, however.

Who Let The Doggos Out?

August 26 is International Dog Day! 

While Eastside Cats is sans doggos, we still love them.

A few sillies to honor this holiday are below.

Honoring Orphaned Pets

"National Pet Day on April 11 dedicates the day to those pets who may not always get the companionship and attention they deserve. 

While loving our pets is something we do every day, the observance encourages helping out orphaned pet companions. 

It will improve their health and enhance their opportunities for adoption."

Cheeky-edited

Very disturbing news arrived yesterday, Monday March 31:

Happy Cat Sanctuary has burned; devastating loss of life:

Deadly fire at Happy Cat Sanctuary on Long Island under investigation; one dead

It is reported that Owner Chris Arsenault was the victim, as well as many cats.

Our hearts are broken over this terrible incident.

At this point, Jaegers Run Animal Rescue is assisting with the immediate needs of the cats, as is Strong Island Animal Rescue League, if you'd care to donate.

😿💔😿

April 1 is April Fools' Day, so let's be cheeky:

As a kid, we used to play tricks on our siblings, such as putting globs of wet tissue on the floor at bedtime, so bare feet would step on them.

As an adult, I've had a few tricks played on me, such as someone saying it's their birthday, but it's not.

Hope y'all have a laugh today.
