’Freshest schnoodle ever! Seriously, I hope you have people in your life who give you as much joy as you do to complete internet strangers.’


i'm lucky that i walk a couple miles every day...
i head down to watch fishing boats along the peaceful bay
a week or so ago, i saw a seagull in distress
tangled up in fishing line - the poor bird was a mess...
n in his desperate struggle, as he saw me walking near
he stopped n stared - i felt his plea - i'm glad that You are here...
it only took a moment, but my tiny sandaled toe
stepped on the line, he flapped away - n he was free to go!
it only takes alittle while to change a person's day
a look, a smile, a helping hand, or something that you say
there's 'strangers' we will never know, or struggles that they fight
but if the smallest gesture helps
i'll try
with all my might!

there's a sweet n quiet calm
when i am sitting with the mom
we've been together many years
n shared much happiness
n tears

throughout it all, we're side by side
nothing else means more to me

A while ago our neighbors moved out and left their pets behind. The people across the street managed to get the dogs and we took in the cats. Didn't know one was pregnant. Three weeks old and wobbly, we now have four little kittens. (Ignore the dollar store towels.)

’Thanks OP and friends for being awesome!’


we little kits who never knew
the mean that some bad people do
cuz when our mom was left behind,
she knew a Home she had to find!
n yet we kits were nice n calm,
safe n sound inside our mom ;}
'a safe place for my babes is needed!'
Good human friends - her plea they heeded
taken in! they didn't know
how fast their family would grow ...
so Thanks 'OP', with all our heart
for giving us a loving start!
some people choose the 'right' from 'wrong'

His name is Mr. Hobo Highwaters, when he was on the streets and now


u/mac_is_crack

’That is one handsome beast...’


there's beauty there among the beasts
in lonely alleys roam
they scrounge for food, n dream of feasts
and long to find a home...
a ragged Hobo once was he -
life on the street was tough
but someone thought he'd surely be
a diamond in the rough....
so Handsome now, a happy end -
a tale that's quite surprising
with loving care a human friend
saw this
'Highwater'
rising!
thanks to u/mac_is_crack for sharing his story

It's a match!


u/oaksdreaming

’I think they both found the right one to be with...’


'there's somebody for Everyone' we hear the humans say
(we cats are sometimes choosy about getting things our way...)
but i have found the purrfect match! He's better than the rest
this my Special human friend, the one I love the Best!
there's something how he makes me feel - his laughter n his voice
he tells me I am beautiful, his very favorite choice!
the bond we share together - something most cats just dream of....
we look at one another -
all we Ever see
is Love

u/X-a-i-x

’I just want this to be my Sunday afternoon - watching my dog and chicken chase each other for hours. I seek simple pleasures in life...’


i wish you simple pleasures, friend
a lazy afternoon to spend
no worries hanging over you,
no politics or covid flu
no chores to do or bills to pay,
just watch the innocent
at play
two animals without a care,
of human problems - unaware
as round they go, in circles run
n endless chase - they're having Fun!
we humans 'run in circles', too
with way too much we have to do
so watch them, carefree! without stress
i hope it brings you
Happiness

My grandma has severe dementia, but today she became a Disney princess


u/gfxprotege

today i found a princess, landing gently on her hand
(not everybody sees them, but we birds - we understand...)
they're out among the humans, walking round us everyday
we birds are most aware of them, their warm n gentle way...
they mostly turn to 'princesses' when they are growing old
they've learned the joy of simple things -
a bird in hand to hold
as we alight, so softly, on their outstretched hand to rest
we share with them our magic, as we both feel heaven blessed
these special human beings hear our sweetest faint bird song
but some don't even know
they've been a princess
all along

’It never occurred to me that shifting winds would take the little ones out so far....’


the shifting winds caught me one day,
n took me out to sea
adrift i was, so far away
until you rescued me!
the waves - they rocked me to n fro,
confused n scared was i...
the way back home i did not know -
i thought that i
would die...
but then - scooped up! a gentle hand
it lifted me above
my tiny heart would understand
this wondrous thing
called Love...
a bird in hand - of You, my friend,
my 'different feathered' bro....
a second chance at life again -
worth More than you will know!

Lockdown compliments from my wife

’My favorite part is that you’re hamsters...’


we're sharing a lockdown, n so are our pets
so we'll think like They do, so no one forgets...
we humans together in houses we roam,
but think of the cages that some pets call home...
the closer the quarters, the more cramped the space
the more we get Sick of 'that look on your face...'
two birds in a cage, or these hamster friends, small
(enough is enough! We're just Tired of you All!)
so maybe a compliment helpful would do,
a positive something i like about you...
'Pathetic' you're looking... i know how you feel
Today i shall give you
My time
on the wheel ;)
n maybe, perhaps, from the animals learn
be kind to each other - it's for Peace that we yearn!
for they live together, their friendship is proof

Honouring an old dog's last wish


u/rubygrenade

’Fair warning, it's sad. The dog has congestive heart failure and is having a rough week. The owner heard it had snowed 100 km north of her home so she messaged the town to confirm, which they did. The owner took pup for a road trip up north before the snow melted and doggie had a fun day rolling about. They also took her for a walk in the woods and she enjoyed it. Now I am crying again and to be honest I left out the really sad parts!’


if i could feel the snow once more
i'd be so happy, friend!
the ice cold wetness i'd adore
a bit of time to spend...
so many years of snowy fun -
the slipping sliding play!
perhaps a chance, a final one
to in a snow drift lay...
a quiet walk thru woods we'd go -
my very favorite part!
i'll leave my pawprints in the snow
and Ever

'what did you do'? friend, there's Nothing you 'owe'...
the story you shared means far more than you know!
a faith in humanity - 'goodness' in man
simply by someone who does what they can!
the world can be dark, so much hate all around

some humans can, sometimes, be selfish - That is what you ain't...

not everyone can take a kit - there's Lots that you must do

they hang on the tree, n that's all that they do...
but as i get older, i sit n i stare...
there's something that's magical now in the air
am thinking of Christmases we had before,
them wrapped up surprises that pile on the floor!
(sometimes i chew paper when no one can see
am hoping that one is a present for me ..)
n as i am dreaming, someone says 'Good Boy!'
We're gonna make Cards with You - Sharing our Joy!'

I adopted 12 year old Brutus a few months ago. He is sluggish, stubborn, gassy, hogs the bed and drools so much I have actually slipped on my kitchen floor. And I'm head over heels in love with him.

i maybe leave puddles of drool here n there,
i'm lazy n stubborn, but you will not care
cuz no other dog does the things that i do
but No one will make you feel Loved this way, too!
n when i am looking at you, up above
you'll see what I see, friend -

This is Biscuit. We moved our couch today...something rattled INSIDE the couch, so we flipped it over...and now I know why I’ve had to buy so many mice in the past 3 years. She has no remorse and is now snuggling with all 26 of them!


u/I_Like_Peaches_

’The masterful hunter....’


just a few weeks til Christmas, n all thru the house
not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse
for they were all hunted by Me, with great care,
n stashed in the couch! (no one knew they were there...)
til one day the humans heard something inside
no longer their whereabouts could be denied...
I'm Biscuit the cat, n my secret's revealed:
''twas inside the couch
all my mice
were concealed
i don't have to explain - you can bet by tonight
i'll find a New place -
stash them All
out of sight....

It was on that day Finn learnt the truth about the red dot


’The red dot was inside me all along...’


just a few weeks til Christmas, n there on the floor
appeared the red dot - i had seen it before...
but this one looked different, no move like the rest
for This time it seemed a bright glow from my chest!
n then in a twinkling i knew i was wrong:
the red dot was inside of Me, all along!
i stared at my human, their face up above -
My 'red dot' was Shining -
my heart
Full of Love!

Shelter animals try cozy new donated beds


u/jemop15549

just a few weeks til Christmas, when what did appear ?
the shelter we live in brought new Beds in here!
we felt we weren't worthy, but oh, what a gift
a soft place to rest gave our sad hearts a lift!
n now as we nestle all snug in our beds
we share the same visions, n thoughts in our heads...
these beds are so cozy, but what we dream of
a place for our bed
in a Home

we dangerous boys, yes, the Kings of all beasts!
just lyin' around - don't be scared in the least
the humans will pause, though, they'll stop in their tracks
afraid that we'll Jump up, n have us some snacks...

u/bmoneyyy9

’You have been chosen! You both look so happy...’


you went to the shelter, a dog's what you sought
preferring 'adopt' over one that you bought...
no dogs to be found on the day that you went,
then your eyes met Mine - truly Me - heaven sent!
i pawed at my cage, n said 'Human - pick Me'!
i Knew in my heart - with You i'm meant to be
a new friend - forever! so glad you came in

then galloping to slumber deep -
a Brave but sleepy horse
with loving dreams of friend who keeps
