I spotted a fledging Mourning Dove sitting in the left lane of a busy street this morning. I pulled over to rescue it, and moments before I could get it, a speeding SUV ran it over. I drove home crying and went to my backyard to feed the birds. And I found this. After unsuccessfully attempting to free her big fat head from my “squirrel-proof” feeder, I drove her to my vet as she CONTINUED TO EAT MY BIRDSEED THE ENTIRE TIME. Shout out to my local vet who knocked her out, got her out of the feeder, gave her fluids, and released her far from my backyard. How was your morning? Any rat-proof feeder recommendations?

Pugs, like many dogs, can have an amusing fascination with light due to their natural curiosity and keen sensitivity to movement. Whether it's a beam of sunlight, a flashlight, or the elusive laser pointer, the shifting and darting patterns can trigger their prey drive or playfulness. To a pug, the dancing light might mimic a moving object, sparking their instinct to chase it or interact with it.
