Today all you animal lovers should hug your pets. Francis loved not only birds and wolves but all of nature. We also ought to pray for our Pope, his namesake. He leads a simple life just as Francis did. Don't forget our priests who will be out today to bless numerous pets in Francis' honor.
Our own pet activities included:
1. Shampooing our accident prone rug with our little steam machine..
2. Shampooing our dog with our I-Pethead dry shampoo. Both she and the rug smell nice now.
3. Praying at our home Pet Cemetery with St. Francis.
Of course our other animals weren't left out. Shay the horse was well fed, but in her stall, because of today's high winds. Our eclectic taste-budded Bear the guinea pig got her lettuce, cilantro, carrot shreds, candied dry fruit and grass, and Dottie the dog got a change in diet to Pedigree, which she favors over the last mix of feeds. Her hair will stay long during the cold winter months. No trim for her.
Oh, and the clowns will get their fish flakes and the tank will be cleaned too. The sanitation crew snails will munch on the algae growing on the tank's rocks and walls.
Have a fun St. Francis day and love those wonderful beasties that brighten our lives.
