So glad you are joining me today for the Dogs N Pawz Blog Hop called Tuesday’s Tails! New posts go up on Tuesday but you can link up and post when you want all week-long. The whole purpose is to feature cats, dogs, rabbits, birds, etc. so when you link up is up to you! Even pets from PetFinder, are fine. Let’s just get them all homes!
Dogs N Pawz said “I also want to encourage all of you to share each other’s Tuesday’s Tails posts on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and whatever other social media channels you use. The more we share the more likely we are to get the word out!”
Let’s hop to it! Today we are featuring Betty Boop, a stray 10-year-old doggie. This girl is only half way done with life, can she spend the other half on your lap?

We arrived home today after 15 hours of flying around. It is so nice to be home to my own zoo and I am really looking forward to sleeping in my bed. Before I turn in, I thought I would share some more cats from my trip to Jerusalem. If you have not seen the previous cat post this week please check it out – an incredible 2 million cats and I would like to take pictures of every one of them.

We drove to the lowest point on earth, the Dead Sea, and visited the historic site of Masada. Masada is located on a rock cliff in the Judean desert, overlooking the Dead Sea. It was a fortress built by Herod around 31 BCE. A good amount of the original stone and tile still exist.
As you can imagine there is not much wildlife in the desert. We passed a few ornamental camels along the way, dressed up for tourists to ride on the side of the road, but I was driving so I could not get any pictures. And, one really cute goat was eating brush alongside the highway. The nomadic Bedouins, who live in tents and huts in the desert, have goats, sheep, donkeys, and camels, but I only saw them as we past. Yes, they also have cats (not sure about dogs).

The only life I saw at Masada were the blackbirds with reddish-brown under their wings – are they red-winged black birds – and some little scraggly trees.
Life can find a way even in the harshest of climates. Look at this little tree growing in the side of the rock, in a place where it only rains 3 times a year. I am always amazed.
Heading home tonight and will be back in a few days. I have many more cat pictures from the old city. Stay tuned.

It was a beautiful day at the Tisch Family Biblical Zoological Gardens in Jerusalem with Peanut and friends. I am not sure all these animals, reptiles, and birds were really on Noah’s Ark but they were fun to watch. Sadly, their only lion had recently past away and the bears were hibernating. A zoo worth visiting, for sure.

The cats are always amazed by the lights of the Christmas tree (which you can see reflected in the window behind Noel and Stella). K8 caught them watching the twinkling from a safe distance. Nine, of course, was already climbing the tree, doing his best to undo all the wonderful decorations that K8 and V were putting up.
Don’t forget to celebrate the shortest day and longest night of the year (Winter Solstice) today in the Northern Hemisphere. We gain a bit more daylight every day now until the Spring Equinox.
I can not imagine a life without cats. Happy Caturday.
Keep the furries safe this holiday. Here is a little reminder list of what to be careful of for your cats and dogs (and rabbits and guinea pigs and potbellies, and probably ferrets too) this season:
Bones – Small turkey and ham bones can lodge in the throat, stomach and digestive tract requiring surgery to remove. Also, the fats and gravies that you may add to your pets‘ food can cause diarrhea and vomiting (and ultimately pancreatitis (Yuk!)).
Christmas Trees – These create a whole realm of dangers for your pet. Poorly secured trees can fall on rambunctious pets as the run around or try to climb them. Pine needles can cause GI irritation and perforation. Sharp or breakable ornaments should be kept well out-of-the-way of curious mouths and paws. Christmas trees may contain additives and preservatives, which leech into the water and can be toxic if ingested. Tinsel, yarn and ribbon can cause linear foreign bodies (get wrapped up throughout the intestinal tract) and create a blockage and/or possible perforations.
Electrical Cords – These are always a hazard to curious kittens and puppies. But the extra lights and decorations give even more temptation. Make sure that all electrical cords are in good condition and out of reach.
Holiday Plants – Many plants can be poisonous to you pet. The holidays add a few more to that list and include mistletoe, poinsettia, lilies and holly (the berries are especially toxic).
Lost Pets – The holidays make it easier for pets to sneak their way out of the house with the extra guests and visiting friends going in and out. Be sure to keep identification on your pets and keep them contained in a bedroom if you are expecting a lot of foot traffic through your front door.
Sweets – Holiday candy can cause GI problems and become toxic once ingested. Chocolate is one of the most common causes of toxic reaction in pets. The darker the chocolate the worse it is. Do not place wrapped boxes of chocolate under the tree – dogs can sniff them out. Also be sure to keep the candy dishes covered so playful paws aren’t tempted to fish them out.

Let’s all have a safe holiday season!

Sonya sent me an email with pictures and said that Louise and Sofie are doing fine staying in her care and with all their friends.
They seem to be having a relaxing time while I toil away in China working. Ahhh, it is a dog’s life for sure.
They all went on a walk in the woods which must have been fun.
Sonya said that Sofie has been busy each night protecting them from foxes (or possums or raccoons or something — that they can’t see) and from deer.
They have a foster, Dee Dee, in the red harness next to Louise in the bottom picture, that actually whines even more than Sofie!
Dee Dee really likes Sofie, Sonya said. She thinks it’s because Dee Dee used to live with a blonde Cairn terrier that Sonya just placed in a new home a few days after they come in to rescue.
That is Louise in the middle of the dalmatian pack. The back row is Oreo, Millie & Jolene. In front of Jolene is another black dog, Spunky and Sofie is under the chair on the right.
This sure made me smile a million miles away – Thanks Sonya for taking good care of my puppies.
