Good morning & welcome to Whiskers Wednesday

If you wait until you feel ‘better’ to start living, you might be waiting forever
Go live your life
Do it sad
Do it anxious
Do it uncertain
Healing doesn’t always come before the experience.
Sometimes the experience is what heals you

Yep! This is us at the moment. We had a very reduced supply from Saturday. Today, we found out that the water isn't safe and it should be boiled. Try doing that for a small zoo... 🙁
Try going days without water. That’s what people in Tunbridge Wells have had to do.  

Families, care homes and schools are in limbo while South East Water still can’t say when this will be fixed. Thank you Mike Martin for stepping up and holding those responsible to account.

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.

But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.

The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me, a partridge in a pear tree. Ate it.

Heron family in black and white. I used to visit this place every Spring, but sadly, the surrounding trees have grown too much and there is no longer a clear view of the nests #photography #birds

Here is my peace plan for Ukraine/Russia.

1. Russia gets the fuck out of Ukraine.

2. Putin goes on trial in the Hague.

3. Russia pays everyone for everything.

4. Trump gets impeached, convicted, and sent to jail.

Thanks for your attention to this matter.

I've seen this in theatres many times. I think the last one was fairly local and hubby dropped me off. Neither of us knew that the High Street had been pedestrianised since we were last there. I had to walk through the Saturday afternoon market wearing a red basque, black knickers and stockings... 🤣

The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975)
After listening to the sound track all day, I had to rewatch it.

Brad and Janet run into trouble on their honeymoon - a flat tire, and the only place in sight is the castle of the lovely Dr. Frank-N-Furter.

Don't be shy-who else loves this movie?

The Israeli military’s genocide isn’t over, it’s expanding.

The Israeli government has violated the truce nearly 500 times in 44 days, killing over 342 Palestinians in Gaza, according to Gaza’s Government Media Office, including 28 Palestinians in the past three days.

Joy is about understanding, recognizing, and deeply internalizing the profound truth that everything in this life—every emotion, every circumstance, every moment of pain or pleasure—is inherently temporary, fleeting, and impermanent in nature.

It might seem odd that cats like cardboard boxes, but I don't think it's strange at all. If I could fit inside a cardboard box, I'd stay there all day.

And we're still vacuuming up wasps from around the house. We use a bug vacuum, so they aren't hurt, but so far they've been found in the attic, the bedroom, the kitchen, the front room and the bathroom. This is not good with 12 cats in the house ☹️

Well... that went about as badly as it could have done. Our normal vet came out earlier than expected for Madison llama, but it meant the pet cremation company couldn't arrive at the same time. Never mind.

It took longer because he used a sedative first, but that part was pretty stress free...

Trump and Putin are in lockstep against Europe and NATO

It is time for the EU, NATO and the UK to face the fact that the US is now an enemy

Trump's 28-point Ukraine peace plan in full
The document states Ukraine must cede land it currently controls. The plan closely resembles the list of demands repeatedly outlined by Vladimir Putin.

I will share one image tonight. Taken on a street photography outing in London many years ago. I had left our two llamas at home in the middle of the countryside, but found this one on the Millennium Bridge. Hint - it was taken from underneath, looking up 😉
