Happy Day

Thanks to everyone who enlightened me on these beautiful flowers that I posted about yesterday.  They are indeed hollyhocks and I absolutely adore them!
   This afternoon I took abandoned kitty to the home of one of our international teachers who will get her to the vet to be cleaned, shaved, spayed and treated for a cold and injured paw.  
I can't tell you how happy kitty was to be inside again.  She explored her surroundings and then plopped herself right down and started rolling around on the carpet.  It was a joyful moment indeed!  The good news is there may already be someone interested in adopting her.
 While I was there, we spied this little guy tap-tap-tapping at the window.
And guess who has a birthday today?
Jingles turns 8.  Such a pretty girl.

Happy Tuesday!

Jingles posed so nicely for her birthday portrait!
I loved the hollyhocks we had in our yard in North Dakota when I was growing up. They don't seem to grow them much where I live in California.

Believe it or not... I learned those flowers' name in English before Portuguese (I still don't know what they're called here) but the funny thing is I spread a whole bunch of seeds last weekend at my dad's property! Just because I fell in love with them last year up north and managed to save the seeds to plant here :)
I'm glad kitty is doing well--and happy birthday to Jingles!

Happy Birthday to Jingles. I hope she got a special treat in honor. Hollyhocks are beautiful. So glad your days are clear and dust free. It is hard to believe April is almost over. Feels like our world is spinning ever faster with all the 24/7 technology. Birthday hugs to Jingles...

What a great day it was for that poor kitty. Yep, crazy cat lady, you did GOOD!! I hope you have found a home for this one, it is very cute. I don't understand why people get rid of cats or don't neuter them and allow them to roam free. That is such a pain.

On a brighter note, Happy Birthday to the birthday girl, sweet Jingles!

Serena Lewis said...

Happy Birthday, Jingles!!!

What a sweet feathered visitor you had too.

Enjoy the rest of your week ~ xo

I have always loved Hollhocks as my grandmother grew them in her garden. I used to use flowers as dolls. Tell Jingles Happy Birthday. So glad the other kitty is going to find a new hom.

Happy Birthday to Jingles. She is a pretty kitty indeed.
I love hollyhocks too. They always remind me of a cottage garden.

OMG! Happy Birthday to Jingles, Tammy! She is a BEAUTY beyond belief.

And that abandoned kitty's face is adorable. I HOPE she gets her new home soon.

You have an important mission there in Kuwait! Susan

What a beautiful kitty. I'm glad she may have a home soon. The pretty photo of the bird looks like it's a snowbird on a snow covered branch, but I know that it can't be snow there where you live. It's beautiful though.
Thanks for the photo editing tips. I haven't been blogging much, but I've enjoyed catching up and seeing all of your photos.
Blessings,
Marcia

Those Hollyhocks are fantastic...I only had a half a dozen in our garden once and those naughty things did not come back the next year...they were lovely for one season at least...but those are WOW
