My favorite strip! And my absolute favorite quote, from Opus, "A happy dork in the periwinkle with sunshine on his nose?"

I can relate! Rescue after rescue. Now I have to admit I did go crazy with rescuing lockdown birds, but then other birds started showing up (when you’re a bird person people find you to take more on).

So inside we have 3 dogs, 2 cats, a rabbit, and 12 parrot species.

Seymour the pound cat and Pancho the lockdown rescue Chihuahua:

These two “showed up”. Daisy was found under my husband’s truck as a starving 5 week old kitten. Suki outlived her human parents and the family was split on what to do with her…she is a force of nature and the four siblings (one of whom was a former coworker) did not want to take her on, but their mom’s dying words were “take care of Dad and take care of Suki”. I met that coworker again by happenstance the week of 11/2022…the week their dad had to go to a nursing home/memory care facility at the age of 94. Husband said “no”. I said let’s just give it a trial period. After 1 hour of being in our house, husband said she’s ours now.

Rico, sad lockdown rescue. Now much happier!

Moses the Cockatiel flew to a colleague’s husband’s shoulder in their yard. I gave advice on bird care until they could locate the owner. After a few weeks of no luck, they asked if we could take him on. View attachment 4285267

The rabbit. Gus-Gus (Colonel Gustard) arrived 2022 when my daughter passed by a neighbor’s house and saw him in a small cage in their garage. She could tell they were packing the car for a trip and asked if they needed rabbit care while they were gone (temps were in the 90’s—he would have died in that garage). They said she could have him. I said we would foster him until we could rehome him. After that first golden hour daughter declared “I love him”. She went to college and now I’m full time rabbit mama.

It’s a lotta work but I can’t imagine life without each and every one of them!

Wow! I love your critters.

Ok. Ima goin’ to take a picture of each daily comic from my $1.74 first edition from 1986 (payed a lot more than that then) and post here daily! Hopefully, the laughs will be priceless. “Bloom County”, “Farside” and “Calvin & Hobbes” were my favorites

I like Herman, Ballard Street and Close to Home, personally. I bought my dad the box set of Far Side for Father's day last year.
