RULES OF ENGAGEMENT —
- You know how this works, but as always, a gentle reminder:
- Pooties are cats; Woozles are dogs. Goggies are dogs, too, and moggies are cats. Birds...are birds! Peeps are people. PWB Peeps are Pooties, Woozle, Birds People. Neat, huh.
- No trolling the diary.
- If you hate pootie diaries, leave now. No harm, no foul.
- Share any and all pootie/woozle photos or issues that you would like .
- If you have health/behavior issues with your pootie or woozle, feel free to bring it to the community. We just may have someone whose experience can help.
- Whatever happens in the outer blog STAYS in the outer blog. This is a place to relax and play; please treat it accordingly.
- There are some pics we never post: snakes, spiders, creepy crawlies, any and all photos that depict or encourage human cruelty toward animals. These are considered “out of bounds” and will not be tolerated.
- There is no such thing as stealing a photo around here, but if you would like a pic from the comment threads, please ask the poster. He/she may have a copyright to those pics. Many thanks!
- It should not need to be said, but ANY/ALL photos that imply or encourage human violence against an animal will be considered verboten! Whether it is “comedic” or not.
Ifn you are going to make a big statement — aim bigly and do it publicly.
Sometimes a good sign should be followed by another good sign, and even some good action.
If you find yourself in a protracted skirmish, be sure to dress appropriately.
When the new guy in the neighborhood is bloviating his arriviste credentials, point and laugh, and then share the joke with secret code.
Sometimes when dealing with an imperious noisy being, it helps to make small caricatures of them to bring them into perspective.
Sometimes when your friends watch too much teevee and begin to freak out, it’s time to intervene!
When people move into your neighborhood, and you know they like to break things, greet them at the door appropriately. Bring frends.
Keep a weather eye on that shallow arriviste in that big house.
**INTERMISSION BEGIN***
** END INTERMISSION**
Soon we will engage more deeply. But for now holding our friends close and spending time with them helps nurture our inner self.
Hang out with frends in the sun, and socialize to renew, and strengthen those bonds
Share books, and deep thoughts with them.
Share laughter. Laughing with old friends is such a luxury.
Go to art shows with friends.
Sleeping is good. Sometimes it’s good to be sung to sleep by a small frend.
Because soon…..
