Rosi the Baby Squirrel!

Rori Dotson took this photo of a baby squirrel she rescued. Here’s the story:
Rosi is an eastern gray squirrel who fell out of a tree and into my life ;-) You can read a little more of her story here. 
In this pic she is five to six weeks old and still doing great... Eating like a horse and growing like a weed :-) This is how she would often end up after one of her feedings. Growing up is hard work and requires tons of naps.  :-)

What does Bill Clinton know about My Little Pony?

Hello Kitty trouble!

I wonder what Hello Kitty did to get in trouble with the police? Whatever it is, I know she won't talk back. She has no mouth! (Thanks very much to Seymour Templar for use of his photo.)

Spinning Kids!

Whenever I see a photo like this, I wonder: Who took the picture?! Anyway, you can see more of photos at the Flickr blog; this one was taken by Mr. Din.

Kitten Cuteness Classic!

A couple of years ago, a person uploaded this video of a kitten hiding in a sofa. If you've never seen it before, now's your chance!

Singing Mice!

Yes, this mouse is cute. But since it's known as an Alston's singing mouse, it's even cuter! These little guys live in the deep forests of Central America. And while they're hanging out in the trees, they sing. Like this!
