Goodbye Mister Bear

We had to say goodbye to Mister Bear today (black/right). He had been our loyal little bear cat for over four years. He most likely had FIP, which he picked up early in his short life, but it developed into a fatal version and took the life out of him in a short week and a half. He'll be reunited with his brother (left/b/w), who disappeared almost two years ago, and has been patiently waiting for him. We'll miss you boys!

Thanks to Dr. Evatz and the staff at Wasatch Animal Clinic for their excellent care of our little Bear (and us).

Friday

Wow ... on many levels.

The Feeder Files

What happens when you set out a "deer" block to feed some animals? You get some animals, but no deer.

Snow, a Film and Two Cats

This film is several years old now, but is worth watching and has a sweet message from a little boy who tells the story through the filmmaker.

Daisy Jane | 2001-2018

We said goodbye to our little "muffin" on Saturday. She gave us many opinions, specific instructions, and mostly lots of love. She came to us and left us in the same way—in a cardboard box. We'll miss her pink nose, cuddly nature, and 3 a.m. wake up calls (well, maybe not that). We love you DJ.

Seattle Rising

Having lived here for 22 years, I've seen a ton of changes in the area including two new sports stadiums, a loss of a pro basketball team and traffic galore.
Enjoy this structural rise of Seattle. (H/T Geekwire)

I remember when Nicholson NY launched this fun Flash game in 1998 as a Holiday greeting. Flash for web is all but dead, but this lives on for now as a swf, or it can be downloaded as an app. Play or download. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
