In honor of Presidents’ Day, I considered doing a punny version of all 43 Presidents. (Even though Barack Obama is the 44th President, Grover Cleveland made us forever confused by serving non-consecutive terms.) I’m sure you will be pleased to hear that I rejected that idea. Anyway, it’s time for this week’s No Frown Friday:
- Your non-exhaustive list of presidential punny pet names: Chester A. Arfur, Rover Cleveland and Dwight D. Eisenbow-wower.
- Enjoy a few photos of Bo, the undeniably adorable First Dog.
- Did you know that some members of Congress treat every day like it’s Take Your Dog to Work Day?
- Apparently pups get involved in politics at the local level too. Check out this story of a rescue dog who hangs out with his City Council.
- Have you heard about Larry the Cat? He’s moved in as the Prime Minister’s new mouser.
I warn you, I’m about to depart from the theme of today’s post. The following clip has nothing to do with Presidents. Or politics. Or anything, really.

I have no idea why I decided that you needed that video today. It just felt right.
Happy Friday! If you’re one of the lucky folks who have Monday off, enjoy the long weekend. If you aren’t, just watch the cat above react dramatically to this revelation, and you’ll feel better. I promise.
That kittycat has a FUNNY face!!!
That cat video is very funny, watched it a couple times. I haven't seen a cat look so shocked lol…or does it always look like that? Have a great weekend 🙂
Heehee!! Thanks for sharing!
NO WAY is that cat real!!!!
Have a great weekend!
Ok, well I liked your canineified presidents names!
I'll bet you're the pet blogger to do something for President's Day. You rock!
I loved the presidential dog puns and I know I'll be trying to come up with new ones all weekend. I guess Barkbark Obama is too easy, huh? How about Richard Nips'um?
And the slideshow of legislators with their dogs was wonderful. I think it was a great demonstration of how animals can make us more human.
Thanks for letting me indulge my silly side, guys! 🙂
Pamela – I love Richard Nips'um! Good one!
Oh my dogness, I'm still laughing about Dwight D. Eisenbow-wower! A few more: Rufferford B. Hayes, James A. Barkfield or Arfield or Barfield! And who can forget George W. Sniff-a-Bush! ha ha!
aaaah, good laugh!
Your pals, Diane and Cosmo!
Gotta cheap out here, with Thomas Jeffurson.
Funny!
That video was HILARIOUS! I wonder what startled that kitty?
That is one seriously spooky kitty. And any more bad puns, and I will resurrect the late great Graham Chapman to come along and stop this post because it's gotten too silly.
Hehe – great post! Those Capitol Hill pups were fascinating. I didn't realize it was so dog-friendly up there!
Just a heads up! You've received the "Stylish Blog Award". Stop by and pick it up.

Waggin at ya,

I loved the post and that video is a hoot!
I had my eyebrows furrowed when I first saw the thumbnail for this video. It looked scary actually. But then I watched it and it made me giggle. This was crazy, ahaha! Sharing some loving your way as a thank you http://www.naturalk9supplies.com/
Diane and Cosmo – I'm still giggling about Rufferford B. Hayes!
onepersonsview – Unfortunately, I'm kind of a pun machine! It's an addiction and I can't stop… there's a whole category of posts on here dedicated to punny pet names, after all. 🙂
Hawk – Thank you so much!
I don't know how you knew, but I DID need that video today!
