Mine too, sort of....Chinese Horroscope.

I am now never getting another cat. Not a chance. I am horrified.
People keep telling me....this happens in Australia too.....NO IT DOES NOT.....we do not have wild rabbits in the city.

That's terrible Venus.

When I was like 9, I got a pair of rabbits for Christmas. A couple of weeks later the neighborhood dogs broke into the cage and got one of them. We got home from school and there was rabbit hair all over the neighborhood. The other one died a couple of days later from stress or something.

Venus - So sorry about your baby rabbit. It must be heart broking.

Micheal - Thank you for Bday wishes and gorgeous rose!

And I think Sao's misspelling is so cute)

That's awful Venus Hopefully in time you can forgive cats for what comes naturally to them. Along my daily hikes I see a lot of harsh things in nature. Nature in general seems to be very hard on rabbits, which isn't fair because they are also the cutest.

Nope, No cats if I live in America. Not a chance.
I am still in shock.
Cannot stop crying.

I mean I used to be able to take a skink away from Venus.....a tiny little lizard. Just take it away from her. She would do what I told her to. I trained her.

No apologies needed, Suze. It's life with all its colors and overtones.

Thank's Mags!

Hope everyone is well

Just got home from work, better late than never! I'm in.

Since I can't find the YouTube button on this "new" SR format, ,
here is a direct link to this morning's video of Jobu's new habitat
(for those who are interested), since he outgrew the first one.
Thankfully, being an ambush predator, he doesn't need a huge tank- yet.

Enjoy. I took extra time to find the right soundtrack.

I did that using the tags Lunar, so they still work if you type them in.

thanks for not going down the politics road guys - politics are important and we do need to discuss political things in our lives

but there's a hundred other sites to do that on that won't take away from people helping other people recover, which is what we do here.

I'm sorry about your Bunny Suze.

Suze, so sorry to hear that! That's tough now. You've always been a good person to talk about things so I feel for you! And well done on 500 days, Forwards.

Not having the greatest day or two myself now either. My mood is pretty bad, I think the whole thing with looking for another carer and the continued
isolation is taking it's toll. I normally do a few Zoom meetings but I simply can't be bothered this week now. I'm looking at a computer screen 12-15 hours a day lately,
I'm trying to go out for walks, etc but I'm stuck in my home office the rest of the time (I work from home a few days a week normally but then I'm out and about the other days)
I can't go out and meet people or my friends, the phone and online stuff isn't fully a replacement for me, well not long term. I should be happy that I'm sober a year (which I am)
but the whole Covid thing is wearing very thin now.......I'm ranting a bit I know (SIGH)

Yea I'm not too worried about myself, it's just a hard time for everyone. I wish I could simply go out for a while soon and meet people to any extent at all.
I probably won't be out seeing customers for months now at this rate. For me, Isolating is normally a killer for my mental health! Only for the fact I've been through a lot
of support, treatment, etc the last year I'd be screwed now. Anyway sorry again Suze for what's happened there (((hugs)))
