This is 'wild life' at rest, so I thought I would post it here.
Have a nice day.

If your dog was holding the remote, that would be special!

Well, my cat keeps trying to escape out the back door, and he bit my wife earlier, so I feel that qualifies him for the Wildlife category. He full of independence and refuses to be tamed -- so there's that too.

Morris, thanks for the comment. Ollie has not figured out the remote yet, but he's learning. Every night he lays on the sofa and watches TV with my wife -- it's only a matter of time!

I recall watching a nature documentary when I was about 13 and a big cat was stalking a zebra. My cat leaped from my side and went right up to the TV to watch.

Just ignore the Grinch, Greg.

IMO, pets aren't people either (I know some may disagree).

Maybe we need an "animals" forum, that would cover people, pets, and wildlife

Great pic of the couch potato pets.

They are in control, the minute you let them into your heart, Greg!

Good capture, Tony -- a stark reminder that life is difficult, and not as we would like it to be.
In regard to the 'Grinch', my wife will tell you that I can be one too.
I take it all with a grain of salt, sadly for some the 'wrong side of the bed' is the only side.
I love your amazing photography.

Thanks for the comment. Typically, the cat is fairly lazy (he's 11 yrs. old), but our pup 'Ollie' is only 7 mos. old and most of the time is like a wild rabbit -- drives the cat nuts. Good thing about Ollie is that he knows how to properly recharge when needed.

Now that reflects the state of things in our house. Our dog ,Chester, has us just about trained to his likings!

Really cute shot.

Yes Birdie -- like cute little kids, they are masters at manipulation.
