Spotlight Thursday – Meet Ava

Spotlight Thursday

Welcome my friends to SPOTLIGHT THURSDAY.  This is the time that I will introduce you to one of my fellow anipals so you can get to know them better.  Some of them, you may already know.  We hope that you enjoy this new series!

Name:  Ava

Age:  3

Location:  Georgia

What were your first thoughts when you met your new parents?  I couldn’t figure out why they wrapped me in a blankie but then I realized it was cuz it was cold outside and they didn’t want me to get sick.

Web Page:  N/A  (My friends – Ava will be checking in throughout the day for comments/messages.  Please welcome my friend Ava to the blogville world.)

What was the defining moment when you knew you were in your forever home?  When I stuck my tongue out at my mommy and she let me get away with it.

.

What has been your biggest “Oh no, now I’ve done it” moment so far in your home?  When my mommy found out I ate poo-poo.  I thought it was chocolate!  Whoops.

.

Who do you have wrapped around your paws more – mom or dad – and why?  Both of my mommies.  I’m fortunate to still have my real mommy.  She still tries to clean me.  I let her clean my face but get upset when she tries to clean my belly.  

And my other mommy cause I roll over on my back and she gives me raspberries on my belly.  It tickles and puts me to sleep at the same time.

.

.

What’s the biggest misconception that humans think about you?  Humans think I’m mean – but who could resist this face!?

 Hope you enjoyed meeting my friend Ava – check back next week for another Spotlight edition!

 

Dear Bacon

Dear Bacon –  What?  Who are people to judge?  There I was walking in the woods minding my own business.  That’s when it crossed my path.  It was so huge.  So ugly.  So mean looking.  Shivers to Smokey the Bear.  This thing was huge.  What can I say?  Even bears hate spiders.  They are evil little creatures.  Are you afraid of those eight legged freaks too?  Signed Sitting on Top of the World

Dear Sitting on Top of the World – I agree with you whole heatedly my friend – SHIVERS!  To be so small and somewhat innocent looking, those legs and eyes set me off every single time.  They are a wicked bunch who think the entire world is out to get them.  In thinking such, Yes.  I can admit it.  I’m so afraid of them. Heck we had one outside our front porch here at the Hotel Thompson that was so huge that it could carry me off.  Is there any room up there for me too?

Dear Bacon –  I’m just trying to set the record straight my friend.  Not all of my kind is mean or aggressive.  That’s how the bad owners try to make us feel.  Take for instance me – I’m full of love and kindness as you can see by my friends.  I love everyone and would not hurt not a soul.  Signed Love Actually

Dear Love Actually – Bravo my friend.  You make a great example in setting everyone straight.  We are only as our humans are.  Full of love and life shows the kindness in your humans – just like mine.  We wouldn’t hurt anyone… except for maybe licks and kisses.  Keep up the great work!

 Dear Bacon –  It’s time to have a talk with my master.  After balancing the budget for him, there are some cuts to be made.  I think we should start in his food budget and see how he likes it for a change.  What do you think?  Signed Bulldog Accounting

Dear Bulldog Accounting – I think you may be on to something my friend.  If we cut their food budget and the things they enjoy, they might see the light when it comes to cutting our food supply and the things we enjoy.  Great strategy.  Let me know how it works okay.

 Dear Bacon – I am ready for the battle.  I will protect and serve you my oinker friend through thick and then.  I have my sandals and sword and will travel for your safety.  Signed Warrior

Dear Warrior – Aaww – that’s a great friend that would pick up, travel to my side and protect me through thick and thin.  You are such a great and brave warrior.  But in these parts here at the Hotel Thompson, I don’t have much to worry about.  Not really.  I think most days all I do worry about is whether or not tonight I’m having a salad or side dish from mom/dad’s dinner.  That’s the highlight of my worries.  You see, I have it made here at the Hotel Thompson.  I know that.  I say your talents and bravery should be for say a woman of your kind… that way you can win her heart forever every day together.  What do you think?  Keep me posted because I think personally any woman would be honored to have you at her side – her shining knight hero.

Dear Bacon –  Roar!  I’m a bear.  I’m a fox.  I’m a dog.  Listen to me ROAR.  Barks!  No not really.  You see I am a dog.  However, I look like a fox or a bear.  Neat huh?  My humans love that about me.  At first people are like WOW – look at that bear.  Then they learn that I’m a poochie.  Then they are like aaaww isn’t he cute?  I’ll take it – I’ll take all of the attention I can get.  Right? Signed PandaFoxPooch

Dear PandaFoxPooch – I think that’s awesome!  You can have the best of three different worlds.  Just think of the tight spots you can get out of with your multi-talents.  Too cool my friend.  And you have the entire package – the looks, the coloring and the roar and barking.  Carry it with pride!
