In A Week When The World Is Mourning The Loss Of Cecil . . .

[Buenchico]

. . . it's good to know that Americans with guns sometimes get just what they deserve:

I hope that the Armadillo is okay.

I am too sleepy to think of a fitting phrase to describe the eejit with the gun.

Has your lady friend returned?

Is this the way to slay aramadillo ?

Patches is still missing, Wolf63 :(
(It's 4 weeks now).

However I still keep hoping that she'll return. In the meantime there are still four felines who are keeping me happy. Lovely videos like this one also help ;-)

At least you know that Patches is capable of looking after herself and she won't end up pregnant.

I am fascinated by this chap. He is on a Facebook page for Twala, Brinjal pointed me in their direction. He is gorgeous but is known for his 'bad hair days'. http://i61.tinypic.com/1fhkxz.jpg

I am off to bed, if I am allowed on the bed that is.

Let's hope that your rest is more peaceful than Shungu's, Wolf63 ;-)

blimey it looks like a nine-banded armadillo
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine-banded_armadillo

rather cinquecinctus ( five banded ) who carry leprosy
as a chronic infection ( I think )

The report says he fired three bullets at the armadillo so I expect he wounded or killed it. Even a Texan couldn't miss three times could he?
