Dora, Bella and Harry

Our cat Dora the Explorer, a natural bobtail. Her mother was a bobtail, but some of the other kittens had normal tails.

...yes, Dora the Explorer again, in a relatively docile mood. Took this 5th October. Today is Wednesday 7th. We have just put up a cat net on our back deck as Dora has worked out how to jump over. On a trial run she nearly fell off the other side which is about 4-5 metres above the ground, very high. Dangerous, but she has had a taste of the great outdoors, and is desperate. We are concerned about the native birds, and about her... ticks, snakes, etc.

Meet Bella, our latest family member. West Highland White Terriers have been part of our family since 1983. Ian was looking for a Westie online, when he found a photo of Bella and her two siblings. Bella was born 6th July 2022 in Glen Innes, New South Wales, Australia. She is a West Highland White x Jack Russell Terrier. This makes her a "Jack Highland Terrier". The traits of the breed are - cheerful, affectionate, and alert, full of energy, loyal to their pack of family members. They’re intelligent and can easily be trained. Independent, frisky and fun-loving. www.hepper.com/westie-jack-russell-mix She has settled in well, is very happy, and absolutely full of energy. She loves our cat Dora, and our Westie, Angus. Bella is a joy. 285. - 26.11.2022 A picture and your story

3/365 Have had this motto for many years, having worked for IBM through the 70s-90s. “THINK” was the slogan developed by Thomas Watson Sr. when he was a sales manager for the National Cash Register Company, exhorting his salesmen to use their heads, not their feet—their job was to think. As IBM CEO during the 1920s, Watson continued to encourage innovation and “THINK” became a ubiquitous slogan in IBM paraphernalia including notepads, advertising, products—even the title of the company magazine. By the 1950s, IBM sales staffs distributed “THINK" signs like this one to their customers. americanhistory.si.edu Scavenger Hunt 25Scav2024 Language Second year Scavenger Hunt www.ipernity.com/group/2445860/discuss/197768
