Today is Follow-up Friday hosted by Jodi from Heart Like A Dog. This is where we review the week behind so that we can launch into the week ahead (or something like that).
Noel, the Christmas Cat here. I have been in charge of the blog all week while Mommy is over in Ireland on business. I wish she would come home already, because this is really hard work and I might break a nail, but I understand that she is still going to be gone awhile longer. Personally, I think I did an outstanding job this week and I hope that she brings me something really really special, like an Irish mouse.
This week I starred on Caturday, but had to give up my spot to Lulu Belle, the bigger dog, on Black and White Sunday. That is OK because she is the black to my white – though I don’t like any of those smelly go-outsiders.
Monday Mischief included silly Nine boy chasing light dots up the wall. He is a crazy kitten, I would not be caught dead chasing light dots (but maybe a laser thingy). Mommy had a laser thing once, but she left it on the coffee table and it disappeared. I assume Nine has it stashed under the couch with a lot of other toys of his.
We were forced did our charitable part to show some pretty birdies and bunnies that need homes on Tuesday’s Tail. I would prefer to eat birds, but I guess everyone needs a home.
Taking over Mom’s chair
Wordless Wednesday left me sad because Sofie misses Mommy sooooo much. She was moping on the dog bed with a catnip toy, which she loves to suck on. It comforts her, I guess. And why not, it is full of catnip, which is a wonderful tea. I miss Mommy too. No one has been in her office all week, which forces me to come out into the living room to meow at the other humans while they watch TV. I have to walk all the way down the hall to do that – OMC! (On My Cat!) Those other humans are not the same as Mommy. I want catnip too!!!!!
If you made it all the way to Thankful Thursday, then you know the DogDaz Zoo thanked YOU – yes you – for following us and coming back even when we are silly and don’t have much to say in the blog. We are grateful animals (especially at feeding time).
That’s it for the week. Thanks for playing along with us. Check out the hop below and you can go play with others.

Today is Follow-up Friday hosted by Jodi from Heart Like A Dog. This is where we review the week behind so that we can launch into the week ahead (or something like that).
This week started out ducky, with the baby ducks floating on the river on Black and White Sunday and then Louise and Sofie going crazy trying to eat them on Monday Mischief. I really don’t know what I would do if one of them swam out far enough to disrupt the floating family. But luckily, I did not have to find out.
We are still hopping with Tuesday’s Tails to try to find homes for local abandon animals. This week we had 3 beautiful kitties to show you. Do people like the adoption hop? I don’t know that I have many local followers, but even if it gets one animal a home it has done the job.
The biggest hit this week was Noel, loving on a picture of herself, for Wordless Wednesday. It is not that Noel, the Christmas Cat, is vain, but she thinks a lot of herself. She is the alpha of all alphas at the DogDaz Zoo and she makes sure that we all remember that.
And we ended the week with our brand new family member, Sydney Alexa, who is coming home from the hospital today to meet her big sister Maddy. Duckies, Kitties, Puppies and Babies – now that makes the world go round.
That’s it for the week. Thanks for playing along with us.

Today is Follow-up Friday hosted by Jodi from Heart Like A Dog. This is where we review the week behind so that we can launch into the week ahead (or something like that).
I got home Saturday with Peanut from college. She is now home for the summer. The animals were so happy to see her. Now we are back to life as normal (is there such a thing?) at the zoo.
Blogfriends thought that the Sunday Flat Dogs were very cute, and flat. Now that it is getting hot and muggy out the dogs seem to be getting flatter and flatter.
Stella is so in love with K8 and she never leaves her alone, as you saw on Monday Mischief. She hides in K8’s room almost all the time and waits for her to come home from work to play, play, play. It is hard being the youngest in a big family. I understand Stella, I’m the baby too.
Stella loves K8 (and k8’s bed)
Sofie thought it was pretty funny that everyone wanted to give her boxes and boxes of cookies when she was begging on Wordless Wednesday. Animals have this pleading way of getting anything they want from us weak humans who love them.
On Thankful Thursday we acknowledged Miss Harper Lee for blessing us with the Sweetest Blog Award, and we passed it on to some really sweet blogfriends. I love getting awards but it is so hard to figure out how to only bestow them on a dozen or so. When I was making the baker’s dozen list, I had over 40 names. Always hard to choose. But it was fun to have a food fight with everyone. Here’s a cupcake in your eye!
This week Savannah helped her friends Mollie & Alfie hold an auction for a very sick foster kitty, Leo. We bid on some cool stones and won. But really the winner will be Leo when his vet bills are paid, We do hope you get better and start eating on your own soon Leo. Leo has Hepatic Lipidosis disease. Click HERE to find out more about this illness in cats. Who knew that it was so common. The zoo is sending a lot of healing energy to you Leo.
You can help Leo too (if you are in the USA) – bu donating to …Contra Costa Humane Society Donate page CLICK HERE…when you see this option…
“Please select the program or fundraiser to which your donation should be applied”
..scroll the “options” and click “Leo’s Medical Care”…CCHS is a 501 3c organization in the USA and all USA donations will be tax deductible when submitted through here.
That’s it for the week. Thanks for playing along with us. Check out the hop below and you can go play with others.

Blogfriends really liked the Sunday picture of Sofie and wanted to see the original. So here they are together. You know, I take it back but that is not in the yard by the forsythia bush, it must be down by the river because that is the crazy wild bamboo. 🙂
She is so alert sometimes. I actually saw her point today by lifting her front paw like Louise does. I think they mimic each other sometimes.
There was incredible Mischief on Monday down by the river. The dogs were losing their minds because their were pairs of ducks on both sides of the pier. The ducks just kept swimming and the dogs were running from one pier to another. Ultimately they did run down the boat ramp, but I called them back because the Magothy River just received an F (as in Failure) for water quality (Vital Magothy River Water Grasses Vanish) and I worry that they will get sick. Last year, while fixing the Osprey platform, one of my neighbors dogs spent to much time in the water and got very sick. I hate what is happening to the environment.
I focused on critters on Tuesday’s Tail to get animals adopted. Don’t you just love Guinea Pigs? We so miss our crew. With 5 pigs, 3 cages, and every day run-arounds in the pig pens, it was a big job but they were worth it.
Me with 3 of our Guinea Pigs

Thankful Thursday, I left to go get Peanut at college in New York and we won’t be home until Caturday. I am very excited and I know all the animals will go crazy when she gets home. The animals just seem to relate differently to younger humans. It is almost as if they treat them more like siblings.
That’s it for the week. Thanks for playing along with us. Check out the hop below and you can go play with others.

You can do such cool things with Instagram. I like how I was able to make this look like a picture from the 1920’s or even earlier, when they used a different type of film process. Sofie is standing in front of the forsythia bushes. I think she looks like a proud herder. Happy Sunday!
