Ace of Spaces Pet Thread, December 6

Good afternoon and welcome to the almost world famous Ace of Spades Pet Thread. Thanks for stopping by. Kick back and enjoy the world of animals.

Let's relax a little with the animals and leave the world of politics and current events outside today.

Spot looks like a lovely, healthy kitty! And still a hunter?

This is Tillie my 14 yr old Dachshund/Mix that went to heaven on Nov 24th. I had rescued her back in 2011 after losing my beloved Chou/Mix Sierra quite unexpectedly. Sierra had been my angel and her sudden loss had left a huge hole in my heart. Tillie was only 10 months old when I adopted her and she quickly healed my heart. She was just a few months shy of her 15th birthday when she passed. Over the years she was quite a handful sometimes but I'd do it all over again just to have her back.

She was around 1-2 yrs old in the first two photos and about 2-3 yrs old in the third photo. The second photo is her waiting for the squirrels to come down the trees (she loved chasing squirrels).

Wish to remain a lurker. Thank you and keep up the great work.

Tillie looks like a wonderful dog. So sorry that you have lost her, and also Sierra. The "waiting for squirrels" photo is endearing. Stay in touch.

You asked about pet shelters. This is a small shed in the backyard I transformed into a stray cat shelter. I looked up instructions and followed them. Raised up off the ground. An ingress large enough for entry, but small enough to keep out the elements. Insulated with straw bales. It is shown with Sakura, who is the current stray yard khet. She isn't sold on it. And my hope is by feeding her near it, she will come to see it as a place to get out of the cold.

Sakura may be a stray, but she's a pet. A lovely one.

Were they noisy?

An American raccoon has been in the news recently. And By-Tor has raccoon visitors again.

If you start feeling nostalgic, here a link to last week's Pet Thread, the Ace of Spades Pet Thread, November 29

I closed the comments on that post so you wouldn't get banned for commenting on a week-old post, but don't try it anyway.
