Dear Diary, what a beautiful day it is to oversee my domain.  A hike to the hill overlooking Feline Fields to the right, with the 9th Life Center barely visible behind, Jackass Junction to the left and Bovine Boulevard South further on to the left. 

Ahhhh  I love my refuge !!!!   I love my planet !!!!

Doggie Downs ....  so early nobody is awake yet to bark at me.  Lazy dawgs.  Obie, if you're gonna beat me in Cats vs Dogs to win control of the refuge in the April vote ....  you better learn that the early bird gets the worm and get that tail waggin early early every morning !!!   No sleep ins for the Chief Spokes Cat .... or Dog ....

9th Life Day Rooms to my left, Chicken City to my right, Rabbit Rotunda aviary ahead .....  The birds are always early birds ....  maybe they should enter the April campaign to be ruler of the roost ....  Hmmmm  ....  would YOU vote for a goose or chicken or peacock or turkey to take my place?

Hay ya Dixie .... hay ya goat faces ....  how's it goin?

The cows have never put forward a candidate to run the refuge ....   Nanny was a Spokes Goat, and a dog gone good one too ....  Where did the expression "dog gone" come from?  I kind a like that !!  

Morning Opie, what can I do to help out today?

When enough donations don't come in .....  but we really need somethin ....  Papa Doug goes out and buys it for us wif his own money ....  You have no idea how many rolls of paper towels it takes every day to keep us all nice and sanitized.  Doug knows how important it is to sanitize for our protection.  \\

Opie!!  I'm so exhausted !!!

I scrubbed the WHOLE deck clean ...... no help from da hoomans at all .... none ....   really ....

I guess that about calls it day .....
