    A message from PETA and a gentle reminder to all of us of the very harsh and horrendous cruelty that goes on in factory farms: They are born on concrete without a scrap of bedding. Their “home” is an intensive-confinement facility, a crowded, reeking factory farm filled with misery—no sunlight, no space, and no comfort…

  • The red-caped masked hero!

    Who??  Who?? Who else? I just had to wash the yellow smiley tshirt today. It’s been 5 days now. So I took it off Indy and quickly washed it. Meanwhile, Indy groomed himself but the wound started bleeding again.  Sorry, Indy, this a temporary measure.  No can do, it’s not going to dry in this…

  • Is it Liberace? Elton John? Elvis?? No, it’s Indy!!

    The other day, when Indy started wearing his smiley-tshirt, a reader remarked that Indy looked like a “gay rock star”!  I was tickled to bits (rolled on floor laughing) but the more I looked at Indy, the more I tend to agree that the smiley-tshirt on Indy reminds me of Elvis, Elton John or Liberace!…
