Your Afternoon Animal Fix + Found Parakeet

If you have any fun or interesting animal/pet photos please shoot me an email to princeofpetworth(at)gmail(dot)com with ‘Animal Fix’ in the title and say what neighborhood you’re from or upload to the PoPville flickr pool with your pets name and neighborhood. I can’t guarantee I’ll get them all posted but I’ll do my best.

Drauglis writes, “Beaver Kit being moved from one lodge to another. Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens, Washington. There were three adult beavers swimming around and slapping their tails. The one kit was moved to a lodge near the edge of the ponds, but a few minutes later the (presumed) mother and the kit left that lodge and swam out of sight, headed fro the mouth of the lagoon. I had heard that there was a “tidal anomaly” today (a newscaster’s phrasing) that was going to result in an unusually high tide. I wondered if the animals sensed that this was occurring and thus decided to move the young to a safer place.”

After the jump found parakeet in Columbia Heights

“Dear PoP,

A parakeet followed my husband home from the Columbia Heights Giant this morning. Just flew over, perched on his shoulder, and refused to leave. Husband and parakeet are now at our house.”

If its yours or you know who’s it is please have them email me at princeofpetworth(at)gmail

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
