They are one of my very favorite animals -- playful, clever, curious -- just enchanting to watch.

5. My doggy girl has always done that when feeling uncertain... or

otherwise in need of comfort. Curling around my feet or hiding behind my legs (a trick for a 75 pound dog, I must say). Even at 11 years old, she still loves to nestle next to my feet.

Cute as can be, that little guy. Glad he has found a good home.

12. Why all the ice cubes? in that last pic?...did she drop her soda?

Or do otters prefer cold water?
