Warm & fuzzy owls, goats, kitties, dogs, birds ETC. PICS &LINKS

I loved Mr. Rogers! I would sit and watch it with my kids. I especially loved it when they would go visit places that made things like suitcases and umbrellas. You could learn so much in those episodes. I loved his cardigan sweaters and easy gentle mannerisms. He was the real deal, good inside and out. He died of cancer.

I am feeling old- I remember watching Mr. Kanagaroo and Mr. Green Jeans, and the Mickey Mouse Club, Astro Boy and Kimba, Flintstones and Kookla Fran and Ollie. I positively lived for the Children's Film Festival. I would sit riveted to the set.. all those fabulous international children's movies.. like The Red Balloon. Poor kids of today have cell phones and 2 second blurbs about nothing and can't sit still long enough to finish an idea. The thing that bothers me about today kids is that they will sometimes sit at a table not talking and just interact with their phones. I find that sad. Love all the posts and that gorgeous long haired tabby sleeping.

That little black kitten is so pathetic.. wow. Dick head.. hilarious... what you think and don't voice! HAHA!!

Rosevalley I absolutely love your turn of phrase "can't sit still long enough to finish an idea" - perfect!

I heard a new phrase yesterday "screenagers" - the ones who converse while scrolling on their smartphones etc Trouble is while (rightly) lamenting youth behaving like this I'm acutely aware of many in my own generation behaving similarly. If our generation doesn't have the collective maturity to deal with the cubicle in the pocket then how do we expect the kids to?

Arthur is beautiful. Just want to rub that cute kitty belly!

I love you Arthur!
