Case of the Mondays?

From an early age, I was trained to hate Mondays.  Thanks, Garfield.  Who knew cats hated the beginning of the week so much?  They don’t even have to go to work.

Anyway, although the title of this blog suggests we’re all puppies, all the time… today’s post is cat-themed.  (It happens.)  The following video sums up how I feel about Monday, while also making my Monday morning so much better:

(via Life with Dogs)

Classic, right?  That cat is my new hero.

Need more?  Well, you’re in luck.  Apparently animals jumping is so hot right now.  If you haven’t seen it yet, go watch this video of a Corgi diving into the water.  I use the term diving very loosely.  It’s really more of a belly flop.  So adorable (and you know I love those Corgis and their short little legs).

If you’re having trouble getting started today, just watch the cat video on repeat until you feel better.  It’s possible I have watched it over a dozen times (maybe more?) since I first saw it.  It’s my neverending moment of Zen.

Before I go, I want to say thanks to Sharon over at Grouchy Puppy for giving us another cool award.  Instead of selecting a few blogs, I’ll just point you to the Puppy Love blogroll at right… there you will find many wonderful pet bloggers to visit.  And I definitely encourage you to visit Grouchy Puppy – it’s awesome!

Happy Monday!

It’s National Donut Day, people.  Let us rejoice, and bask in the sugary glow.  It’s also time for another No Frown Friday – feel free to bask in its non-sugary but still lovely glow.

This week’s NFF has an unlikely (and non-donut related) theme… cats!  That’s right… even a self-proclaimed puppy fan can appreciate our feline friends.  After all, I’ve always had a soft spot for Garfield.

  1. First up, your punny pet names:  Madelion Albright and Gerard Leopardu.
  2. These photos of a tiny lion being raised by tiny humans have my
    cute-o-meter going crazy.
  3. Kitty parents and puppy parents alike should be able to appreciate this lint roller cat.
  4. Check out this heartwarming tale of three kitties who were rescued by a U.S. Marine.  Rumor has it these cats will only agree to live in places that begin with the letter J.  Cats are always so finicky.
  5. Here are some shots of the National Zoo’s new clouded leopard cubs.  I think they broke the aforementioned cute-o-meter.
  6. Finally, are you wise to the wonder that is Winston the cat?  Allow me to introduce you to this banana connoisseur:

(Via fourfour.  If you want to see more Winston – and I know you do – go here.)

Although today’s post is dedicated to cute kitties, I would be remiss if I did not include some safety tips.  Behind that cuteness lurks the heart of a warrior.  (Tigers and lions and tabbies, oh my!)  Is your cat trying to kill you?  Know the warning signs.

Have a good weekend, and be careful out there.
