Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

Still no sign of the wee cub - it's just heartbreaking.        
I know "hope springs eternal", but it's not looking good

I keep telling myself that she's Ok - but.........the waiting for news is just awful.
There's a LOT of Bear Power being directed her way - that's got to be good.

I just looked at Lily's FB pages........this is horrible! Like everyone else, I'm hoping that Lily knows what she is doing, and that Hope is Ok...............but it is  an awful worry. There were posts about a bear who left her cubs in someones yard for several days, and then came back for them. It's going to be a LONG day, waiting and hoping for positive news

Hi all
just a reminder of my raffle for my avatar bear -it will run to the end of the month. Tickets cost $5 each, and all the money will go to the NABC, and benefit their bear research. You can buy tickets by donating to the NABC  (EASY as pie and they take paypai)    on www.bear.org       then just let me know and I'll allocate tickets.
there are more piccies of "Does my bum look big in this" on my website.

Utterly , utterly charming and adorable!        And the two sharing a green bean  must have been watching Lady & the Tramp.........
In this hectic world it's nice to see a critter who takes everything SLOWLY, and wears a SMILE all the time........what do they know that we don't?
Thanks so much for sharing

Funny about your cat, Sophie...........our cat, Fuchsia, does NOT like strangers, and she made no exception for Wendy. Couple of days ago, Wendy was sitting here at the computer and Fuchsia actually jumped onto her lap - then I walked into the room- Fuchsia, with a look of pure HORROR, realised her mistake and almost LEVITATED sideways!
Poor Nounours - whenever we have visitors she really doesn't quite relax - probably scared she might miss something. Got back from the station a while ago, and Nounours only made it past the front door........she is still there , dead to the world!

hey! careful........... Nou :crackup:

Thanks, Clare!  :hug:
The "duck" one would have to be my favourite - we were just mucking round with the two black bears, and then I thought to get one of Wendy's "puddles" into the picture........turned it into a poster for our ill-fated show a couple of weeks back - the one the volcano prevented her from getting to!
