Good morning! Will be 79 or 80 today!  Whew!  Bermuda shorts and a short sleeved tee!    Probably the last warm day until the Spring warm up!
Happy Zippo  continues to improve.   I too
wonder  about Maxi   .terrible fires in Southern California!  Hope the condors and other wildlife cane find safe havens.

Day care and long term boarding!   The hounds and tge small dogs get separate out door play time.    She subs at various vet clinics  but now specializes in behavior issues.

🦥Sloth Preschool Update:

NEW ARRIVAL
Lula: Lula arrived at TRR after being found next to her mother, who unfortunately passed away.

Clyde, 2F Sloth: Clyde has shown consistent growth, excellent appetite, and an adventurous personality. If you see a sloth moving around the structure, moving from top to bottom and all over the place, look closely as it's most likely Clyde!

TayTay, 2F Sloth: Tay Tay has been gaining weight consistently and maintains a healthy appetite. She has begun spending more time outside in the trees as she is now getting ready to graduate to Sloth Elementary!

Waylon, 3F Sloth: Waylon keeps eating on his own and gaining weight! He has a tremendous appetite and he demolishes every leaf presented to him!

🕊️In Memory Of:  😢
Miztli, 2F Sloth, and Buki, 3F Sloth: These two remarkable orphans arrived at TRR after surviving tragic circumstances, but unfortunately passed away from their injuries a few weeks after arriving at our clinic. Although you might not have met them officially (but you may have seen them on the porch), we decided to include them in the update as a testimony to their resilience and as a reminder that wildlife rehabilitation can have its ups and downs.

Ken, 2F Sloth: We are absolutely heartbroken to announce that Ken has unfortunately passed away. He encountered several health issues on his path to recovery but ultimately passed away due to a parasite. We will miss him greatly but we are sure that he is cheering on his fellow sloths on their path to being released.

A friendly reminder: We are a critical care facility - Even though you do not see this on camera, the animals are under 24/7 vet care.

CLYNN  The Chantilly cakes are in the bakery case - Don't have to pre order.  Awesome Sequoia photo.   Like PUFF said - the smell must be beyond description.

PHYL   Didn't seem like too hard of a job for that falcon to grab lunch  LOL 365   In the mosque photo - notice all the "towers" in the backround - communication or power?  Old and new.

LISA  Cute AM greeting

KAREN   Thanks for clarifying the hound park.  What a great space for the dogs.  Bet she is a much sought after vet!!!

Lani tks for the Sloth Report, lots going on with those  pre-school critters.

Karen luv those 'Peanuts' kids---always! Tks  ; Also appreciate the backstory on the 'boarding and training facility'; Wow! 80F for you  today. 

Lisa luv that cuppa Christmas Cheer---you use Bailey's Irish Creme? Right?  .  Good news from the ENT; good luck w/the  insulated (?)metal doors.

TSk towers attached or adjacent to a mosque   are called  minarets  . And are  designed to  call tthe faithful to prayer, issued from mosques five times a day, can be heard loud and clear throughout a town or city.

Tig glad the tootsies are happy. What color did you have then painted or are they naked? LOL
Sorry about the eyeball pain---were the tags frozen with liq O2?

Dinner: traditional meatloaf (ground beef and pork) in a beef gravy , baby red mashed potaotes. Meatloaf slices each topped with Fr. fried onions and real blu cheese melted 'just so'  . Mixed veggies in butter sauce & garden salad. No dessert. But lots of vino.

Good Morning Beakers!

   

Lani, I'm with you on the Chantilly cake, maybe for after Christmas tea with Nancy (nr). She invited me for tea on Saturday, sounds like she has some good treats planned!  We had a dusting of snow along with wind yesterday, TWC was calling for snow Thursday night and some on Friday. Now it's freezing rain Friay night turning to rain, 39 and rain on Saturday. 20-30 mph winds today. Iowa. What a sloth report, they must be very busy there!  Makes me sad that something happened to so many sloth moms.

karen, thanks for the updates on SWFL, it won't be long now!

BL, sounds like you are in heaven, with all of the things you love!

Phyl, your dinner sounds good (except for the bleu cheese...)!  Love the kitty in the tree, I am expecting to see that any time! Of course, I would go find my phone and take a picture before I got the kitty down!  Thanks for Amy's Blog, always interesting!

Puff, I agree, the smell of the Sequoia National Park would be heavenly....  I even love walking under my two pine trees, just for the smell!

Lisa, you are finding such cute Christmasy morning greetings!
