Goos Moring Beakers!

   

Lani, I agree, the news coming from Helene is horrific...looking at the pictures and videos, it's hard to imagine people having to go through that. I am so glad to hear that CROW was spared for the most part. I grieve for the animals with nowhere to go...

baz, so glad to hear that you and Zippo are safe. And that your mountain sister and family are safe even though they are trapped on the mountain for a while. So many videos, I was trying to see if the Biltmore Estate was damaged but couldn't find anything specific. Biltmore Village was severely flooded  https://www.nbcnews.com/video/asheville-s-historic-biltmore-village-submerged-in-water-after-hurricane-helene-220337221801 

karen, so glad you an Piper are safe, even though Piper can't run the back yard! Check into a portable pet fence, there are several types out there.  https://www.chewy.com/b/pens-accessories-1468?utm_id=28026253&msclkid=2814fd4f90c615bdac919bb8741a6df3&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Search_NC_Dog_HG_Containment%20%26%20Gear&utm_term=portable%20dog%20pens%20for%20small%20dogs&utm_content=Pet%20Play%20Pens   We were watching the news yesterday morning, they were showing some of the damage in Valdosta. Particularlly the Antique Market that was hit. Oh my, lots of damage in downtown Valdosta!
https://www.msn.com/en-us/weather/topstories/multiple-buildings-in-downtown-valdosta-destroyed-by-hurricane-helene/ar-AA1rkQDr?ocid=BingNewsSerp

Phyl, what's up with your knees? You were doing so good! Did the retention pond overflow?

tsk, good that Tom and Barb's place is okay. So much damage in such a huge area.




Never lie, steal, cheat, or drink. But if you must lie, lie in the arms of the one you love. If you must steal, steal away from bad company. If you must cheat, cheat death. And if you must drink, drink in the moments that take your breath away. ~ Unknown

The Cats Will Know

By Cesare Pavese
Translated By Geoffrey Brock
Rain will fall again
on your smooth pavement,
a light rain like
a breath or a step.
The breeze and the dawn
will flourish again
when you return,
as if beneath your step.
Between flowers and sills
the cats will know.

There will be other days,
there will be other voices.
You will smile alone.

The cats will know.
You will hear words
old and spent and useless
like costumes left over
from yesterday’s parties.

You too will make gestures.
You’ll answer with words—
face of springtime,
you too will make gestures.

The cats will know,
face of springtime;
and the light rain
and the hyacinth dawn
that wrench the heart of him
who hopes no more for you—
they are the sad smile
you smile by yourself.

There will be other days,
other voices and renewals.
Face of springtime,
we will suffer at daybreak.

Good Caturday  Morning Everyone!
                                               
     
                                                                                                                                       
Currently: 61F cloudy , High  66F light rain  with  Low 61F

  :'( Such sad news from Florida, Georgia and North Carolina---especially the lives lost. Again the first thing on my mind when I wake in the morning ---millions of folks without fresh water, electricity, possessions, loved ones and homes!    🙏 s     

Relieved to read that {{{Karen/Piper and Bazi/Zippo}}}are well and safe.  :-*
Sad to read about destruction at  CROW, to echo--hadn't been long since they rebuilt from the last tropical cyclone   🙏 s


Bazi and Tsk Thank you for asking about us---Nashville has some flooding as we were under a NWS flood alert. We got about 4.19" rain fall in our Old Hickory Hills  area  alone.   Remember?  On days like we've had, it's the barometric pressure that make arthritis worse.
The rains have stopped . What a blessing!
Still I always think of the stray, unwanted and unloved  cats esp who have no safe place to go.  :'(   🙏 s


Tig yes. Prayers for Capt. Johnny

Hi CLynn awww Silver Tabbies this AM. Makes me think of 'Tiger'  he was with me in my teen years; cheery kitty quilt

Thanks for supplemental' Helene'  news OG and Bazi

Tsk glad  to read Barb and Tom are "ok", and your friend in Bradenton, too.

Lani  awesome BE last night


  Prayers for: The Fallen of Abbey Gate, Vietnam, Korean Conflict, WWI and II; Police and First Responders.  Our friend and ally the Nation of Israel and peace for her people.   'Little Gray' and 'Little One' ...All abandoned, abused , lost cats ... stray, unloved, homeless stray and feral cats; The Bluebirds of Cane Ridge, Tennessee, Hummingbirds, Bumble Bees  and Honey bees everywhere . As always, Beakers, Cheerios and RRP/families.

GOOD CATURDAY MORNING

BAZI  So many hugs to your mountain family cut off now.  Let's hope it is not for too long.  Wow I didn't realize Etta had passed but sounds like I forgot.

LANI  Yes I remember how CROW had to rebuild - Happy to see when they rebuilt it was "flood proof"

CLYNN  Cute Caturday kitties :)   It is so hard to look at all the flooding damage.  So long before so many people can resume their lives.
Biltmore - Let's hope they took some sort of precautions.  Valdosta damage - Boy oh boy.  Saw that cat quilt on FB yesterday. Love it  LOL

LORI   Thanks for posting LB's pics of darling Penny - Happy B-day #5 - and that gorgeous Tika
Chicagoland
