Paging Christopher Robin…

Just because an animal is large, it doesn’t mean he doesn’t want kindness; however big Tigger seems to be, remember that he wants as much kindness as Roo.

Today’s dose of cute is for fans of Winnie the Pooh.  Piglet and Tigger come to life at a park in China, where a tiger cub who was rejected by its mother is being raised by a sow. Send this one to somebody who would appreciate it…If you don’t know anybody like that, you’re hanging out with the wrong people.

This would make a wonderful exhibition to take elementary school students to…it would teach them about love, diversity, maternal instinct….and later, when the tiger is bigger and hungry, it’ll teach them about how little time it takes an adult tiger to slaughter a handful of pigs. Now THAT’S entertainment!

I love playing with dangling strings. That last one tasted kind of Charlottey.

Not only are pigs one of nature’s most intelligent animals, they are also one of the most devil-may-care.

Bristle ball. Way more painful to cough up than a hairball.
