A community member's beloved dog, Anubis, passed away today. His cremation fee will be $215 at Pendleton Veterinary Clinic. Can you help by calling 541-276-3141 and donating over the phone? Thank you 💔

If you are grilling today, please be safe. Never leave your grill unattended and have a fire extinguisher nearby. My neighbors had a housefire yesterday. Everyone is safe, and their kitty is currently staying with me. She's scared (understandably). Here she is this morning #cats

Happy Adoption Day to Toe, as in Tic, Tac, Toe! Toe was the last of her siblings to be adopted, and we're so happy for this sweet kitty! We have a full-full shelter and many animals who need YOU! We're open Tuesday through Saturday and would love to help you find your fur-ever friend 💗 🐾 #cats

4.14 miles, 769 foot elevation gain. Beautiful wildflowers, painful, stinging wildflowers. The fiddlenecks hurt the worst. There's a lesson there. #CharityMiles #everymilematters #getoutside

This account is called "Dog Podcast," and it's nothing but horrible AI videos of little kids hitting animals or yelling at them or being somehow mean, and then all these comments praising this behavior or thinking it's "cute."

I just texted my 15-year-old, "Are you ready for your date?" but my phone changed it to "fate," and WHEW. Definitely a different vibe!

I know this is a HUGE stretch, but May 27th at 5:30 p.m. in Pendleton, Oregon, there is a Cornhole for Charity event, and I'm trying to recruit people to play for @pawspendletonor.bsky.social . Anyone? Anyone? We have donors who paid for two teams to play.

Enjoying the garden and the yard before catching up on grading. There's even a Wilson's Warbler! #backyard #garden #flowers

The anti-pitbull people are literally THE WORST. They will comment anti-pitbull propaganda on any post.

Happy Adoption Day to Sparrow! What a beautiful kitty and Cat Dad! We once got a message from a concerned citizen because she wasn't sure if men were "really" adopting these cats because she had a stereotype of who cat adopters are. 🫠 Let's hear it for the Cat Dads! #cats #ADOPTdontshop

When I see a rapist pedophile fake praying for attention and others praying to give him strength, I know I made the right choice to walk away from organized religion years ago.

FRIENDS. If you are on Facebook, can you please-please share this shelter fundraiser? I paid for some ads out-of-pocket, but if people can share for free, that helps a lot. Thank you! www.facebook.com/share/p/1BBw...

Might I introduce you to the separation of church and state? Maybe they are unfamiliar with our founding principles...

This is one of those memes I'm going to save for whenever life gets difficult ❤

I was not prepared to open Canvas today and realize that there are stickers to put on assignments. Were these put in our courses by the hackers? Please say yes.

If you see one of our dogs at a public event wearing their "Adopt Me" gear, don't hesitate to stop and visit. Our dogs love getting out of the shelter and meeting new people 💗🐾

Jax loves everyone. He had a home with another dog and a family and a little boy and had to come to the shelter when his family's circumstances changed 💔 He has so much love to give, so we hope you'll share this post or tag a friend who might need Jax in their life. #dogs #adoptdontshop

Do you have room in your heart and your home for a giant lap dog? Meet Jax! Jax visited the Pendleton Downtown Association Street Fair yesterday and LOVED meeting everyone! #dogs #adoptdontshop

Happy Adoption Day to Bennet! 💗🐾

Sometimes, you have to make decisions when moderating the pet groups 🫠

I must share -- in our town, there is a married teacher couple who play Mr. and Mrs. QU to show that QU *always* goes together. A wedding's held at each elementary school. "Shout out to Mr. & Mrs. QU - the QUirky couple QUietly entered the ceremony dressed in aQUa. It was QUite the day for us all!"

3.44 miles, 607 foot elevation run. Beautiful run! I was inspired by Olivia Hankel visiting my class today. Look her up if you don't know who she is! 💗 I'm going to experiment with wearing fleece leggings as long as possible because of all the stinging desert plants. #CharityMiles #getoutside
