Please turn the temperature down. Thank you!

Since the weather has become so warm, I have decided to dramatically reduce my fur count. Please collect excess fur in various locations around the house at your leisure.

Good morning. I am currently available for petting, brushing, ear massages, chin tickles, belly rubs, bum scratches and other fussing.

Jethro is now farming algae

IT’S ABINGDON BEER FESTIVAL I want to try the burgers 🍔

My human @hgloy.bsky.social rescued a neighbour’s cat from outside purgatory in the middle of the night. Then the cat scratched him. That’s all you need to know about cats. Anyway he’s had more success in his non cat helping life.

Is it #TongueOutTuesday?

Redemption apple!!

Monday’s are tough!!!

Sorry this path is full!

Sunday is sploosh with friends day

Today I had a positive calorie walk - first I tried some delicious treats with my friend Bee - then I found some bread that was a bit dry but still delicious - then I met one of my favourite TGs Bob, who can always be counted on for a bit of sausage It was wonderful!

I’m gonna shake that bath right off of my fur

BACON!!!!

Sadly yesterday I had a bath. My fur is all fluffy and I smell like shampoo. At least I got a peanut butter turtle for my struggles.

Good morning

Throw the ball… throw the ball …. I’m getting the ball … I’ve got the ball AGAIN!!!

I found a particularly good stick 1/2

APPLE!!

BA NA NA NAAA

On Sundays I enjoy a group dog walk. I don’t want to brag, but I‘m definitely the best sploosher!

Today I taught a small human how to give a dog a treat. Being a teacher is so rewarding!

Abbey the Fence-Breaker! Are these sticks for me? No! They are a fence, you say? Then call me: Fence Breaker! #AbbeyHaiku #HaikuDay

TREAT GIVERS (TGs) #AbbeyGuide - Never forget a TG human - When encountering a TG assume the treat receiving position (demonstrated below) - Ensure TG knows how underfed you are by the desperation in your eyes - TG are often willing to offer multiple treats, so be a gentle & polite recipient

Today’s #TongueOutTuesday is brought to you from Albert Park, with support from a pink ball
