So did your kittie get an extra hug today and the pup an extra bone? After all , it's World Animal Day today.

I'm a bit perplexed that this seems the first thread ever in GD mentioning it.

Cuddling Pebbles and Gizmo. Hmmm, time for anti flea drops.

Here, some churches celebrate this day with an "animal blessing". You bring in your animal, and the guy in the front of the room wearing the robe will give it a blessing.

In that article, even a sloth is brought into be blessed!

Happy animal's day little Pebbles and Gizmo... Extra cuddle Gizmo for me Andre! :biggrin:
 
Gizmo tells that he is honored, in between hunting spiders. :-p
 
Duke has had visits with my father, and with the neighbors today, and lots of treats, too. Not because of an official day, but because he's my guy.
 
I haven't tormented my cat today. Does that count?

My wife and I got a big thank-you and our yearly calendar from the WWF today. We'll have to give another donation - our neighbor's little girls will love the matching WWF aluminum water bottles that WWF offers as a "gift" for an additional donation.
 
Jelly got a mani pedi at the vet this morning. (No toenail polish - we like the natural look).
