Have you hugged your person today?

I just had to share my favorite photo with the best mommy ever!

If you haven't hugged your person today, do so immediately!  It's good for the soul...and everyone smiles!

The Importance of Oral Hygiene

Today, my good friend, Poncho, who used my techniques to get a pool of his own - see "Tips from the Cub Guru," is demonstrating the importance of oral hygiene! 
Brushing your teeth daily will help prevent dental problems.  But what do you do to keep your teeth shiny, white, and healthy if you're a tiger????  Even a cute, sweet, and have I mentioned handsome tiger cub, such as myself, isn't a great candidate for brushing.  Our diet of ribs and chicken quarters help keep our teeth clean and free of plaque.  But what can we do for the bacteria that causes bad breath???  We want kisses too!
Poncho, the brainiac that he is, has come up with the perfect solution.  Using an oral rinse twice daily - we prefer the sparkling water from the hose - gives us fresh, clean breath, and makes us oh so kissable! 
Pucker up, Ladies!  Rawrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! 

Is Florida really the sunshine state?

Another lovely rainy day here in the Sunshine State (at least that's the nickname "mom" told me).  I honestly don't mind the rain...water is fun to play in...and the rain makes my pool more of a warm bathtub!
There's only so much time I can play in the water....so mom came down to my room and we started going over some more choices for photos, notecards, and embroidery.  Since my early babysitters were dachshunds, mom and I started picking out some nice pictures to use and are brainstorming quotes to match the photos.  I may only be 5 months old, but I' a genius when it comes to brainstorming ideas!!!  Keep checking out Etsy Store - http://www.featuringanimals.etsy.com/ - to see what I come up with next!

Nice People - Great Products

Hi Everyone - for those crafters who like to design notecards like I do and want a professional look when shipping to customers, I did all the hard work (surfing the web with paws can be tough....but I have to work hard to make a great shop for everyone!!!) and found a great place for clear sleeves.  Amber Shaw has a cute site with a great product (and shipping) and an even better mission - all of her proceeds go towards purchasing cardstock, envelopes, and postage so that our troops can write home to their loved ones.  Check out her site - I give her 5 Chuffs (even better than 5 stars for tigers)!!!!
