Thankful Thursday....

Mom took yesterday off from work to head to our local zoo with grandma and grandpa and the kid. It is an annual trip when the kid is up here in the summer. Mom says she is lucky that we live in a town with such a great zoo and one that is committed to conservation.

 our newest polar bear - he joins a pair of sisters

a red panda - the kid said this was her favorite animal

 that goat has some SERIOUS horns

 the  kid was moving her finger around the glass and 
the penguin was following along - pretty cute

 with the youngest kangaroo - they live in an enclosure where you can walk right in


The kid goes home on Saturday. Mom says it has been fun having her up here. We say while she is a good kid, we are glad she hasn't been over here so much.

  14. We're kinda with the kitties. Random stray kitties and random stray kids sometimes lead to problems.

    The CB says today is Ivy's Purrrrthday. If that is right, Happy Purrrrrrthday, Ivy.

    (If not, never mind, we guess)

  17. Wow, that sure is a great zoo. Mommy says we have a Red Panda at our zoo…she thinks even more than one, but no polar bears, penguins or kangaroos. Her very favorite zoo animal is the Giant Panda, but she loves all the others as well. Glad the kid and humans had some fun. We don't see why any of them needed to visit other animals, though. Purrs and hugs, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
