'Mammoth™ Modern Insulation' TVC -- Nikolai

Nikolai is living right! :-)

Cutest Tiger Baby in the House

Not a cheetah but pretty cute :-) The difference is that the Tiger will eat you one day!

Monkey taunts tigers

This is hilarious!

My cat can ride a bike better than you can

This cat seems to be having a great time!

Poems By Cats

This is hilarious!

Cheetah Purring

This cheetah can purr. That said, he can't hold a candle to Tommy T :-)

Talent

This puppy has some serious talent!

Hero Pig

I would not have believed this if I had not seen it for myself.

Hello

Anyone that has been to the Mara will tell you that this happens all the time. It could certainly freak you out if you weren't expecting it though. :-)

Relaxed Kitty

Relaxed kitty is just watching the day go by :-)

Kitty Loves Water

These kitties really love water. :-)

Rufus Tower

This is awesome! Rufus is one lucky kitty.

Best Oreo Ever

Could this possibly be the best Oreo ever made? :-)

This might be the coolest cat ever!

A nice sunset tonight. That said, I do wonder what Savanna is up to today. :-)

At the beach, even boring evenings have great sunsets. :-)

Savanna Cleans Her Puppy

One of the cutest things that I have ever seen. :-)

Happy Birthday Winnie

It is hard to believe that this little ball of fur was only 1.5 pounds when he came home four years ago. Winnie is a typical Persian. He has more love to give than just about any other breed. That, and he never met a box that he didn't like. :-)

Boo Boo Sized Box

It is much harder than one might think to find a Boo Boo sized box. :-)

(Click on photo for a larger version).

Happy Birthday Boo Boo

Boo Boo turns four today. It is hard to believe that he has been with us for that long. It seems like just yesterday that he came home to live with us.

Boo Boo is the friendliest cat that I have ever met.

I bet that he would love to have this squirrel for birthday breakfast. :-)

Summer Showers

These little guys showed up on Monday.

We had a sudden shower this afternoon which turned the area between our patio and  grass into a mini-mote. It is a great place to swim, if you are a duckling. :-)

Non Dog Park

This is the best park ever! :-)

Cat Wheel

This is awesome. It is a 'Cat Wheel.' It is used to exercise your cat.

I wonder if it comes in cheetah size? Their logo gives me that impression. :-)

Cat Stubbs For Mayor

Let's face it, most politicians only care about the next election. Most are brain donors. This is not the case for Stubbs! He is the mayor of Talkeetna Alaska.

As an aside, he has the highest ratings of any mayor in Alaska :-)

Meet Savanna

This little girl was born on July 22, 2012. Her name is Savannah and she lives at the Cincinnati Zoo.

I took this photo of her yesterday.

Cool Golf Cart

I have no need for a golf cart but I would sure like to have this. A Batmobile golf cart. How cool is that.

Voodoo Beer And Donuts

Could this be the best beer ever made? Rogue has partnered with Voodoo Donuts of Portland Oregon to make 'Voodoo Bacon Maple Ale.' How could one put that many great things into a name of a beer? :-)

If you have never had a Voodoo Donuts you are missing out!

Love!

Love! This Raccoon and Cat really seem to love each other. This is very cute, aside from the soundtrack.

Harbor The Raccoon

This is a heartwarming story about a raccoon named Harbor. He was rescued by a wildlife rehabilitator named MaryEllen Schoeman. He made a miraculous recovery and shows MaryEllen his appreciation every day.

Big Cat Soccer

Just in time for the Olympics. I could support this team. :-)

Smoking Orangutan

This is Toni. He lives at the Taru Jurug Zoo in Indonesia. He learned to smoke from watching zoo guest.

To help him quit the habit, the zoo moved Toni and his mate to a private island. Sort of a smoking vacation if you will. :-)

LEGO Bridge

This bridge in Wuppertal Germany was made to look like LEGO's. I wonder if it comes with the LEGO people? :-)

Nikon In Space

Ever wonder how much Nikon gear goes on a NASA mission? Turns out, a lot. This is Don Pettit on the International Space Station.

New Aston Martin Vanquish

Given the demise of the Aston Martin DBS, the company announced their new flagship - Vanquish.

It comes with a 6.0 liter V12 that puts out 565 hp. I need one of these :-)

Hovercat

This ASPCA commercial is hilarious!

Bear Family In Your Yard

You know that you have an exciting back yard when a bear family shows up to play! :-)

Bacon Olive Oil

For those that love all things bacon, there is now a bacon olive oil. You can now add bacon to your Italian  recipes.

Very exciting!

Sauber F1 Cutaway

The Sauber F1 team cut one of their F1 cars in half in order to better demonstrate the internal components and how they work.

This is very cool indeed!

Baby Skunk

This was a hilarious situation!

Emily has been telling me about this baby skunk in our neighborhood for the last few days. When we came home from dinner we saw him in a neighbors front yard. The lighting wasn't good at all but I took my little Canon out and took his photo. The photo didn't turn out great so I got down on the ground for a better shot. I was about one foot away from him when I took this photo. This baby skunk looked up at me with a grub in his mouth and went back to what he was doing.

The funny thing was that Emily took a photo of me taking this photo. She said that she was going to title her photo 'What he was doing when he got sprayed.' :-)

Luckily, I didn't get sprayed and this baby skunk went back to eating his grub. He was very cute!

Boo Boo In A Box

Boo Boo loves boxes. To the untrained eye, this might look easy. Finding a box that a 19 pound, 36 inch long Maine Coon can actually fit in if often a trick. When such a box does come into the house, Boo Boo gets excited. :-)

Lazy Afternoon

Nothing says lazy afternoon like a Boo Boo in a box. :-)

Spring 2012 Continues - Another Installment

Just when I thought that baby duck season was over, these little guys showed up in my back yard today. Their momma brought them right up to the back door. :-)

Cute Otter Pups Learn To Swim

Who knew that otter pups had to be taught how to swim :-)

Spring 2012 Continues

I came home today to find these little guys sitting on my patio. They can't be very old. Their mother is very trusting. I believe that she may have been one of the babies that we hand raised last year. :-)

Grand Cayman Sunset - Friday

In Grand Cayman, they call this a Friday sunset. This is by far the most amazing sunset since we have been here. It seems rather fitting given that we return to Cincinnati in the morning.

Grand Cayman Sunset - Thursday

In Grand Cayman, they call this a Thursday sunset.

The Painted Iguana

The Painted Iguana series of statues in Grand Cayman is very similar to the statue programs that you see in cities in the USA. Cincinnati has the pig, Grand Cayman has the iguana. :-)

In Grand Cayman, they call this a Wednesday sunset. :-)

Grand Cayman - Rum Point

Rum Point Grand Cayman is a great place to visit! It is on the North Shore of Grand Cayman and has some very nice shops and restaurants. Very much worth a visit!

Dude!

This 500 pound turtle reminds me of the turtles from the movie 'Finding Nemo.' :-) Another photo from the Cayman Turtle Farm.

Post Office In Hell

Little known fact - Hell has a post office :-) This particular Hell is in Grand Cayman. Very interesting little tourist trap.

Kitty Sings The Blues

This kitty has some serious skills.

The Lighthouse - Grand Cayman

The Lighthouse was once the beacon for sailors on the South shore of Grand Cayman. It is now a wonderful restaurant.

Grand Cayman - South Shore

Another beautiful day in Grand Cayman. The water here is amazing.

Grand Cayman Sunset

Grand Cayman is beautiful this time of year! Turns out that Grand Cayman's annual Carnival was today. Given that Seven Mile Road is the only road along the West end of the island, we were stuck in traffic for hours. That said, it was a lot of fun. For those of you that have never been to Carnival, it is a blast!

Houdini Cat

Winnie is looking rather smug about fitting nine pounds of cat into a two pound box. :-)

Better Than An Easy Button

This would be better than an easy button. Make everything OK is just a website but it might make you feel better. :-)

Buy MacGyver's House

For those of you that never watched the series, everyone knows who MacGyver was. He lived in a houseboat. That same houseboat is now for sale. It is moored in British Columbia. It is available for immediate procession.

This is just cool!

Chrome Ducati

What could be cooler than a Ducati? How about a chrome Ducati? :-)

The Ducati Diavel Cromo will have a chrome gas tank and a gloss black from. It comes with the famous Testastretta 11 engine.

Poor Meow

Poor Meow. He is way overweight at 39 pounds. This two year old tabby was fed to the point where he can barely fit in his cat carrier.

Hopefully, someone will adopt him and get him on a diet!

Cat Vs. The Automatic Feeder

This cat knows how to make his automatic feeder an 'on-demand feeder.' Maybe it should be called an 'on-abuse' feeder. :-)

Has Maru Met His Match?

Has Maru finally met his match? Too many boxes to sit in at one time. :-)

Spring At The Frolick House

The way that we know that Spring is finally here is when the baby ducks show up in the backyard. This first batch showed up this morning.

Viral Video

This video went viral last week. What a great setup.

Forget beef jerky. The best jerky is made of bacon!

R2D2 Cake

This could very well be the best ever!

Duck Playing Fetch

Duck that thinks it is a dog. :-)

Easter Basket

Cats will always put an empty Easter basket to good use :-)

Happy Easter

Nothing says Easter like Boo Boo relaxing in the afternoon sun.

Peeps

The best thing about Easter is Peeps. Did you now that it takes six minutes to make a Peep?

Who doesn't love peeps? :-)

Bacon Taco Shell

This could possibly be the best idea of our lifetime! :-)

Darth Vader On Washington National Cathedral

It seems that the Sith Lord is on top of the Washington National Cathedral. Very interesting story as to how this came to be. :-)

Darth Tabby

Don't mess with Darth Kitty. :-)

Vito Vincent

Only in La La Land. Vido Vincent needs an agent. Not an unusual story unless you are a tabby. :-)

When Vito lived in NYC, he was on Colbert and 30 Rock. He decided to move to LA to see if he could make more of his career. He now spends most of his days at The Grove sitting on the patio. Not unlike most aspiring actors :-)

Heartwarming Story

This may be the most heartwarming story that I have ever seen!

This Would Make A Great Joke

A cat, an eagle and a fox walk into a bar........ You have to admit, that would be a great start to a joke!

This is really amazing!

Physics Lesson

OK, I am no physicist but nine pounds of cat shouldn't be able to fit in a four pound box.

This must be magic. :-)

Perfect Food

Could this possibly be the perfect food? A grilled cheese donut. It is available only at Tom+Chee here in Cincinnati. How did it take someone so long to come up with this? :-)
