We’ll post links to sites that have Friday (plus or minus a few days) photos of their chosen animals (photoshops at our discretion and humans only in supporting roles). Watch the Exception category for rocks, beer, coffee cups, and….?
We add boarders all day Friday plus intermittently on Saturday and Sunday so visit frequently.
Do link to the Ark every week!
You can find out how to board the Friday Ark at the Arkive page.

Note for Haloscan Users:
Over the past month or so Haloscan started (the end of July) handling of trackbacks has improved though it is still pretty broken for carnival type posts. Now, instead of rejecting every attempt to ping it accepts single pings for a while and then will start rejecting them. I will keep trying to track back to Haloscan boarders but can make no guarantees for any particular week.
Note for Typepad Users:
Typepad continues to behave similar to Haloscan for trackbacks. I been able to get trackbacks to most, if not all, Typepad based boarders. I have to do it one at a time and wait a while in between pings but Typepad does not go into semi-permanent rejection mode like Haloscan.
The sick ones get all the attention
Bear, whose recent medical problems have been documented here, doesn’t ever seem to get his picture posted. That’s because he’s pretty camera shy. …
Sasha and Dexter spent more time together this week, but there was less time for photos.

Whenever I get my pilates mat out to begin the torture, the cat sits right in the middle of it as if he’s the one that’s going to work out. Oh, how I wish that were true!

The Ayatollah is their Supreme Leader. Only K T Cat is referred to as the Maximum Leader, for she is the Maximum Leader of the Feline Theocracy. Just so that you can recognize her, here’s what she looks like, stretching out luxuriously on the floor
