Fur People Photos
 

[hoping the photo properly attaches to this post]

A photo of our pup, Roxy, lying on yoga mat in our home yoga studio--Sandy's legs and Tibetan singing bowl as props. Believe it or not, in this photo (taken just this evening), we are all listening to an archived radio selection on Independent Expression Radio of Shirley talking about animals, dogs, and Terry.

Please share pet photos here!

Some of our critters:

Summer graazing
 

More 4 leggeds

One of many blue jays

This is Annie - one of our 22 raccoons visitors. Annie wants to be in the house. When we sit out on the deck - she does too. Scared the pants off Mom when Annie came over and patted her foot. :)

Visiting a friend's rescued feathered friend

Angel is Mom's little fur baby

This is our Black Bear Dharma - BB for short

Sorry Annie came out sideways - will turn her around later. Have to get a pic of BB's cats - she adopted 2 ferrel cats this winter and won't eat until they eat :)
Now you have seen some of our critters. Each has a story and provides us with hours of smiles and giggles. I'll find a pic of Elkie (our lovable elk) and post it later.

Come on gang - what do your fur babies look like?
BE

Oh, I almost forgot - wooly bully - who wanders through every now and then ;)

Bunny
 

Great to see Angel, she is lovely. And a BEAR ? Crikey.
You all know I can't resist pet pics so here is my Bunny, snore/purring.

Baby Obi
 

Here's our Bengal kitty Obi at about eight weeks old or so.

Curious Obi
 

And here's Obi at dawn contemplating an unexpected visitor from the park across the street.

Baby Gracie
 

Here's our Ragdoll kitty, Gracie Allen Remington, at about 5 weeks old.

Grown Up Gracie
 

And here's Gracie at about 18 months old.

Roxie at 27 days old
 

This is a picture of Roxie when she fell asleep in my lap for an hour and a half after she 'chose' me the day I met her, two days after my 49th birthday.

"A piece of beauty"
 

was how Shirley described Roxie on seeing her picture for the first time. Here she is at 6 weeks old.

And here she is at 16 weeks
 

on the day that we took her home for the first time.

I am so pleased to see this thread taking off! Brit . . . I hope that is the gentle Black Bear (not Griz?!). Here is a photo of a critter who has been scurrying around our kitchen for the last month. We were finally successful in a humane capture and release of a furry couple. Relocated from our house to the nearby forest preserves. Field mice now....

This is one of my favorite photos of Roxy (at the Indiana Dunes beach). I had been gone for a few weeks in part dealing with the sudden and tragic loss of my best friend and in part mourning and learning in solitude at yoga training in Santa Fe. Rarely have I ever seen such a look of love--human or fur person . . .

Vira (a.k.a. Virasana . . . a.k.a. Virabrahdrasana) . . . yes, that is me behind her . . .

Ladies and gentlemen . . . Mr. Alvy Singer . . . contemplating Bergman's "Face To Face" . . .

Jennie
 

Our sweet Jennie!! She was rescued by us from an abusive situation when she was a wee pup, we only saw her photo and all of us Sisters knew instinctively that she had to come live with us!

She'll be 2 in July ~~ and is the apple of our Community's collective eye :D

My best little fur friend Dominoe. I love that she is always smiling at me.

I blogged about walking with my dog not too long ago. There are a couple of good pictures. I thought I would post the link if anyone wants to check it out.

I love this thread by the way. Everyone has such beautiful little friends :)

Love Jade74

I love this thread and have enjoyed looking at all of the photos of your fur families!
If I can figure out how to get the photos on here I will post some of mine! ;)

Dear Hearts
so nice to see pictures of animals, companions loved friends.
I live now on a property near Young NSW, I rent a small cottage and all around me I have cattle that is raised by the owners.

The catlle is often moved acros the road to another place and I often see small culfs lost and calling to their mothers. In February I noticed that one culf was left behind while the cows were moved to onother side across the road. I spoke to the owner about it , he said that something was wrong with its leg so it can not move as fast as others and it will propably die. He said that he looses about 7 procent of cattle and he is not calling vet to asist them because they charge lots of money.

I am so sad for this culf who is such a great little one. I wached him every day and observe him. I took some water in backets to the tree where he likes to rest under.
I cry often as I feel so sory for this one welfere. I love this one so much I wish I could take care of him and hope that I win money so I can take him to vet.
I feel so helpless and I cant do anything as I dont want to be kiked out of this cottage.
Now there are some cows near him but he is lonely as none of cows wants to adopt him. We also had no rain and water in dams is almost dry the grass is dry and my little one is often near the dam trying to get some water but dificult to acess by him.
I ask for prayers that it will find strenght and love, he or she is such a great one but anfortunately he is called "7procent" in the eyes of the owners.
I will try to downoad the picture of him here. Loving you

Oh Basia...this breaks my heart! I will absolutely send tonglen meditative healing energy to you and your little one in the days to come...

Namaste,
Steph

There are organisations all over Australia that can help with animal rescue and injury.
I just Googled "Wires" in your area, 63 41 33 99.
Or try googling "Animal rescue" or "Farm animal rescue" etc. There is bound to be someone who can help.
Or Call around some local vets and see if they will treat the Calf for a discount fee, or even for free. The Wires People may know a sympathetic local vet. Also make sure you have confirmation ffrom the Farmer that you can treat/save the calf.
Good luck

Hello, this has been my favorite photo for ages, it was my backyard in Connecticut, do not miss the snow though.

Love,
Di

Di,
 

Your photo looks like a postcard. It is so beautiful! Thank you for posting. Love, C.

Thanks Cher O, that was such a great site to see in the morning and evening, very comforting, the same deer from a sactuary; Audubon land that surrounded the house that is now gone, and they bought all the land so building will never happen there again, hopefully, it's just for animals.

Love,
Di

Hello,

This is Bailey, a very vocal furperson who was in a shelter for a day before I got her, she has such a sweet personality and very gentle, will always be my favorite indoor baby.

Love,
Di

Roxie turned 3 years old yesterday.
 

Here she is on Monday evening in the park across the street from our apartment building with her "Auntie Mo."

P.S. In the 'icon' photo next to my name, Roxie is just 27 days old.

Thank you for this thread, I love seeing everyone's photos!

Love,
Di
