The Deer Whisperer

June 5, 2013 By 43 Comments

Let the comparisons to Bambi begin!

“We were unpacking the car from a trip when this fawn stumbled across our yard and into Maya’s arms. The fawn had a good sense about Maya and followed her every step. They were inseparable. Maya knew it needed its mother, who we believe was off eating and recuperating from the birthing, so she led it back to the woods. We have not seen the fawn since.”

-Cuteporter Brad H., whose daughter Maya obviously has a bright future working with animals.

Unusual Flower Sighted

September 18, 2012 By

This delightful daisy relative can be found in high elevation fields. In latin it’s named Bellis cervidae which means pretty deer.

To fully appreciate this darling little flower, take a hike up to your favorite alpine meadow and see it in person.


Kim Williams, I hold this image dear to my heart!

Double Happiness Announcement!

September 17, 2012 By

Two faces to wash, and four dirty hands
Two insistent voices, making demands
Twice as much crying, when things go wrong
The four eyes closing, with slumber song
Twice as many garments, blowing on the line
Two cherubs in the wagon, soaking up sunshine
Work I do for twins, naturally comes double
But four arms to hug me, repay all my trouble.
-Author Unknown (BUT I SUSPECT HALLMARK)







Dearest Peeps! We’re very happy to announce that Cute Overlord Meg and hubby Sparky just had twins. The entire family is thrilled at the two healthy additions, including Aunt Chief Sister Officer. No names yet—maybe “Maru” and “Winston”? We’ll see. Hopefully we can get some sleep soon. Hooray! Hooray!

Now it’s your chance. Tell us what the common thread is! Comments encouraged.

The Latest in Desk Accessories

August 16, 2012 By

The makers who brought you Keyboard Kat and Pocket Protector Pet, now introduce their latest accessory: Desk Dik Dik.

Just think, you could be the proud owner of your very own desktop anipal! These little darlings are a mere fifteen to sixteen inches fully grown and love to whistle. (Whistle not guaranteed.)

Plus, it’s hilarious when you answer the question, “What have you been doing?” with, “Playing with my dik dik!” Well, it’s funny until Human Resources comes by your cubicle with an order to attend a class about office propriety.

Supplies won’t last! Get yours today!

We’re Tocking Tock-City

August 15, 2012 By

One day of the year, Rudy’s booked. The rest of the year he’s offline. Sweet gig, eh? Here’s The Original Red-Nosed Reindeer hanging out, um, some place that’s raining. Luckily his buddy brought a bumbershoot.

Whiskers And Horns

August 3, 2012 By

Paws and hooves

Short and long tails.

It is not our differences or our samenesses

That determine our capacity for friendship.


Sometimes, I think we could achieve world peace by imitating the animals, malikimran.
