It's very, very difficult to remember that given what we are facing starting Jan 20, but the world really is filled with good people.

but the cats, and all of their new feline buddies, were waiting on the porch.

all of those cats have now passed,

oh, very glad for all of the pets and their humans who survive this disaster, and i hope they all find their homes.

that on TV, at least owner and pet found each other. I cried too, poor things, but animals are smart they have that instinct. I researched pet places I can donate too.

Climate change is real. But deniers will learn the hard way.
