I just put together one of those massive cat trees the other day!! Now i just have to teach my older cat that this is one thing that she CAN jump up on.. Lol gosh i wish we had flowers like that here!!!

Those plumeria flowers are very very pretty. I love the deep red ones, the naturals and the scents are calming. That green frog looks like a Volkswagon with legs parked in the wrong place...Would it eat the dog? LOL

((((hugs)))) LindaO

You and Debber should team up. smile

The frogs are beautiful... I love the sound of them in the pipes. Especially when there are a number of them all singing away... I have seen 5 or so sticking out of a pipe and singing away.....
OUr dog does occassionally get one, but not toooo often.... thankfully. I hate it when we find a dead one drowned in our spa cos he couldn't get his way out... I do however like it when it is a cane toad dead.. the only animal I am happy to see dead is one of those nasty creatures.

Yes I had heard the flowers are known differently elsewhere in the world. We call them Frangipani but I do believe that America calls them Plumeria, thier botanical name I think..... we have lots of variety just as I imagine there are in Hawaii. I love them and my husband often picks them for me on his way home from work and I arrive to a beautiful array of flowers on the kitchen bench... or him holding them with sap running down his hand.

This cat stand was only $200 off the internet so its not very sturdy.. the old cat doesn't really use it much...

I don't know why but I LOVE frogs. Used to find them in the showers at parks. Like I said, dont' know why - just like em - thanks for the pics Linda! I'm thinkin, I should follow suit, take pics of what I am grateful - maybe i'll post em. Smokie (the grey cat) is sleeping curled up alongside me, Betsy the Wonder Dog is in her kennel - good grief she will do ANYTHING for the darn ball!; Fred the cat, what can you say about a cat named Fred? he's about the most loving cat in the world - even when I was holding him so my friend could squeeze his abscess he was purring (though he did cringe a bit). And friends - I have a few, people I'm Oh SO Happy to See (but i doubt they'd let me take their pic and I would NEVER post online without approval). Linda, a pictoral of grattitude sounds like a good idea - thanks!

Thank you Linda these are great!

No pic of a Cane toad eh? I know they are a very invasive species. I saw a show on tv once, there was a mashed one on the road, and some stupid male was trying to mate it!

Very prolific little suckers. I have always wanted one.

Not their fault some idiot human intro'd them.

thanks again and more more more! love,debilyn Yea Jerry we passionate animal lovers are passionate women in general!

Lovely pictures Linda thanks for sharing.

You know I had a hard time finding those flowers in the US as they are some of my favorites. In Florida they are called Frangipani and in other parts of US they are called Plumeria. I first saw them in Bora Bora and they were everywhere. I remembered how lovely they smelled.

Thanks for sharing

Great pics!!! So fun to see your furry creatures!!! (And not so furry .. lol) We had a cat tree and the cats hated it in fact they peed all over so we had to trash it thankfully we didn't pay for it .. it's just funny how they choose what they are happy with and not so much.

Hugs P :)

I heard the other day that if we have an animal that we really connect with, or like alot, it may represent our totem animal.

Mine is cats

If yours is frogs.... then maybe look up the animal power of frogs. I think it is about cleansing and purification.

We expanded our animal collection to 6 this week. 3 dogs, 2 birds (the new one is an african grey parrot), and 1 cat :)

Wow that's one heck of a cat tree! My brother's GF has one similar. His name is Dexter and he just loves it!
