A Corgi Limerick for Ye - Third (and final?) Edition


Behold ye these Corgis of Cardigan
Whose faces tell a tale of longsufferin'.
Though regularly charming
Next time, without warning
They'll poo in her shoe if she does this again.

♣♣♣♣♣♣♣

However, friends, not to worry. Like the tricky Irish elves themselves, even petulant corgis masquerading as Leprechauns and pots-of-gold-at-the-end-of-the-rainbow must deliver the goods when seen by human eyes. (And by goods, I mean all these other silly photos of Jon Farleigh and Dewi "suffering" through the St. Patrick's Day shoot!)

Enjoy! :-)



Is it me or is Dewi not completely believable as some sort of mythical wish-granting creature?
Seriously, he looks like he was just plucked out of the shire, possibly along with a hobbit or two! :)









Totally worth his weight in gold.



Ears, wings or end table? :)



The Eyes

The String of Drool ;-)

The First of Many Feline Photo Bombs
(I have FIVE cats, people; what did you expect?!)

All begging for a treat; yes, the kitten got one, too. I do not discriminate among species.

These do not look like the faces of corgis who poo in shoes, do they? ;-)

Do you see it, too??? hehe ;-)

And rounding it all out with some highly unusual feline insolence...

Yeah, well at least I'm not dressed up like a kindergartner in a parade!
(he says while sporting the bandana from his human sister's
American Girl (brand) stuffed West Highland Terrier) 

Happy St. Patrick's Day, everybody!

Wherein I Admit to Keeping the Kitten and [gulp] to Having 4+1 Cats

Remember this guy?


Not sure? OK, how about now?


Perhaps if you go back to October 3rd, it'll ring a bell...

Alright, fine! I'll just say it: It's Bertie. The stray kitten I found outside on October 2, brought in, tried to find the owners for, but learned he and his littermates had been left outside on purpose, took to the vet to get vaccinated and neutered, and then left you all hanging about whether I was going to keep him or not.
 (The last time he appeared in a blog post was October 30, incidentally.)

Well, I did. Or should I say we did (I do live with four other humans, you know)... 

KEEP HIM, PEOPLE!

He's our cat. Numero cinco. AKA a whole flipping pile o'cats live in my house.

And you know what? 

YIPPEE! I LOVE MY KITTIES!

Now, pass me a muscle relaxer and draw me a bubble bath.
Actually, don't. I don't do muscle relaxers...or baths. ;) That would mean I'd have to keep the tub clean.

So there you go. I'm glad we had this talk.

Here, have a parting shot (or two) of Bertie and Maddox hanging out (this morning). They're BFFs (for real).



By the way, Bertie is also BFFs with Lulabelle (frap friend) and Dewi (he grooms Dewi's ears). He is only an FF, however, to Eva, Tigger and Jon Farleigh. :-)

"Easter Egg" Alert!

If you scroll to the bottom of my (previously published) not-so-original and even-less-nursery-like song OLD MacDONALD WAS CRAZY, you might find a "new" final verse. ;-)

Elvis Presley's (Let Me Be Your) Teddy Bear (as Covered by Jon Farleigh)

Preface:
Originally recorded by Elvis Presley in 1957 for the film, Loving You...
(Notes: If you're too young to know it, have a look/listen HERE, now. I beseech you. Also, Jon Farleigh changed two words of the original lyrics.)

(Let Me Be Your) Teddy Bear


Baby let me be
your lovin' teddy bear.
Loop a leash around my neck
and lead me anywhere.




Oh let me be (oh let him be)
Your teddy bear.

I don't wanna be a tiger.

'Cause tigers play too rough.
I don't wanna be a lion.


'Cause lions ain't the kind you love enough.

Baby, let me be...



...Around you you every night.
Run your fingers through my hair...




...And cuddle me real tight.
Oh let me be (oh let him be)
Your teddy bear.




I don't wanna be a tiger.


'Cause tigers play too rough.
Don't wanna be a lion.


'Cause lions ain't the kind you love enough.
Just wanna be...your teddy bear.



Loop a leash around my neck
and lead me anywhere.
Oh let me be (oh let him be)...




...Your teddy bear.
Oh let me be (oh let him be)
Your teddy bear.



/(^.^)\

Happy weekend, poopsies.
