Now where is that disclaimer that NO humans were harmed/injured during the setting up of these pictures?

Whatever...

They raised a smile... thanks Doc!

Let me add this very funny picture I took of my cats and let's call it "The Yawn":

I live in Japan so the page is in Japanese and you have to scroll down a little to see my two kitties sitting in the window, performing a mouth examination :)

I was just taking some pictures of them while they were sitting in the window when Kormi, one of my cats decided to yawn at the very moment I pressed the shutter. The resulting picture is quite funny, I would say! As some people commented, my other cat Gluffy who is looking into Kormi's mouth is probably saying "Well, I can't see any fish bones stuck".

Although I have tons of pictures of my cats, this is one of my favorites.

Humor always makes the day better. So do animals, in my humble opinion...
     and my big yard protecting dogs are afraid of cats! Guess they learned about those claws and remembered it well.
 Thanks for the smiles, and please don't stop including them!

Yes, indeed those are some cute pics and some great comments

I agree that animals can brighten our day. I own 2 Greyhounds and a Whippet... my first Greyhound consoled me when I went through stillbirth and went crazy with joy when my son was born alive. She also loved to go to political events, the park, anywhere as she was a social butterfly and oh the laughs that could create. She'd never met a fuzzy dog, for instance, at the track and here she was in the pet store, confronted with something that sure smelled of dog but didn't in the least look like a dog!! (She learned). It's a dog that nuzzles up to my husband when he comes home from work stressed. It's Apollo the Whippet who is learning a knack for ball games with my son when there is just too much energy between them. Indeed, pets do help us.

I was listening to my chigong lessons CD the other night.  The Master said, put a smile on your face while doing exercises.  It makes all the muscles in the body relax.  I experience that It creates some sort of well being almost instantly.  Then I dreamed that night that I could fly when I smiled and sung "fly" in a high note.  Up I went.  Woke up smiling.

Eeeel

Thank you soooooo much for this great laugh!!  Great reply Reesacat!  Made my day!!
