happy Tuesday! You can link up with Alyssa here! She is a real sweetheart by the way! And a cat lover!
1. Please check out this video made by The Humane Society and cruelty-free beauty bloggers. They spread a very important message which should concern all of us. Animal testing is unnecessary, horrible, outdated and nobody needs to torture another being for a beauty product, there are alternatives. So please consider this when you buy beauty products.
2. By the way: it is Be Cruelty-Free Week. Please help to make every week a cruelty-free week.
3. Here you can find an infographic about ending animal testing. Please have a look. For the animals.
4. Yesterday I accidentally found out that they made a movie out of one my fave books, A long way down by Nick Hornby. And Breaking Bad's Jesse is in it. I really really hope that they movie will be good. I am always a bit nervous to watch the movie version of a book I love because it often is disappointing. You can watch the trailer here. I guess I will probably re-read the book before I check out the movie. I guess I don't need to say this, but I highly recommend that book.
5. 10 signs your kitty actually loves you. Well, it looks like Lumpi and Tiger really like me. Phew. Tiger loves to lick my hair.
6. I always put the laundry in the washing machine and then forget about it.
7. Somebody told me today that their neighbors cut out a piece of their cats' ears so that they are easier to recognize. I don't know who did this, if these people did it theirselves or the vet....I thought I have heard and seen everything so far but it seems like I was wrong. What kind of horrible idiots do that to their cats? I have even met these people before but I did not know that they did that to their cats. Well, I will definitely tell them what I think if I ever see them again.
8. I really really really really want to see Grand Budapest Hotel.
9. I am really into the combination of chocolate and mint right now.
10. I love donkeys.

Happy Tuesday and thanks for reading!
Why would anyone do that to a poor kitty?! That's so sad and so disgusting....people are just cruel.
ReplyDeleteThose donkeys are the cutest! I wanted a donkey so badly when I was smaller because I had a children's book featuring a donkey who had the same Hawaiian name as me.
I really don't understand why these people did that. It disgusts me. Those people are horrible!
DeleteThat is so cool! A donkey with your name. :) Love it! I love donkeys so much!
I hope you give those people a big piece of your mind! What jerks! (And other, uh, less printable names.) I hate people like that.
ReplyDeleteI want to see that movie so badly too! I loved Moonrise Kingdom so I'm hoping this will be really good too.
Chocolate and mint are the best! Right up there with chocolate and peanut butter.
Those donkeys are adorable! But then I love all animals :) so I think all of them are adorable. And it looks like my cats really love me--they've even gone so far as to bring live birds into the house and set them loose for me!! I could kind of do without that part, honestly. :P
Yeah I will definitely tell them how horrible they are when I see them. And some other things...I hate them.
DeleteI have not seen Moonrise Kingdom yet, can you believe it? I guess I need to watch both asap!
I guess chocolate goes with anything. Haha. :)
I know what you mean, I love all animals. But donkeys are so great, I would love to be able to live with donkeys (and all the other animals).
Your kitties must love you a lot. You had live birds in the house? :) That is crazy! How did you catch them?
I always forget about my laundry too, every single time. and I love mint, especially chocolate and mint.. yum!
ReplyDeleteI am glad I am not the only one. Sometimes I remember it hours later, it is really bad. Chocolate and mint is so good, I never realized that before!
DeleteAww, cute baby donkey.
ReplyDeleteSurely you can recognise your own cat by the collar that you put on it?!
Yeah you would think so! Horrible people!
DeleteDonkeys are so awesome! :)
There are actually a few movies that I want to see and I'm totally not a movie person... maybe this weekend?
ReplyDeleteWhich movies are on your list? Hope you can watch them soon!
Delete4. I will probably watch this JUST because Aaron Paul is in it. Le sigh...
ReplyDelete7. That is just horrible. If you're so worried about losing them, keep them inside!
9. YUM. Like Andes mints!
Thank you for always linking up, Katrin!
Yeah, he is really cool! :)
DeleteI agree, why would people do something like that? It is just horrible and does not make any sense!
Never realized how good chocolate with mint is!
I totally want a donkey now!!! :-)
ReplyDeleteLots of them! :))
DeleteEvery week should be cruelty free week!!
ReplyDeleteThats so terrible about your neighbours cats!! Any who doesn't regonise their cat anyway??
It totally should!
DeleteAnd yes, you would think that people are able to recognize their own cat! Come on, people!
I love the "10 signs that your kitty actually loves you" link. I found 5 of the ten in my cat. I hope that means she loves me! And I cannot believe someone would clip their cats ears to make them more recognizable?? Anyone who loves their pet can recognize them in a moment's notice. I think that's just cruel.
ReplyDeleteI am pretty sure she loves you a lot, Keith! :) And I really can't believe that people do that either. I mean, you could show me a million black cats and I could always tell you who is Lumpi! I don't understand cruelty. Horrible people!
DeleteI love how you help us be aware of things like Be Cruelty Free Week! I wouldn't have known without you and I really love this! And I also loved the 10 signs your kitty loves you link - Molli does the slow blinking and bringing gifts as well as sleeping in my lap and kneading me ;) The donkeys are so cute and I think I need an After Eight now! Chocolate and mint is super yummy :D
ReplyDeleteIch drücke Dich noch Mal ganz feste, liebe Katrin :)
Thank you so much, Beate! It is important for me to share all these things!
DeleteIt really looks like Molli loves you a lot! Aww! Hope you enjoyed the After Eight!
And I love donkeys so much, I wish I could live with donkeys. :)
Have a great weekend! Ich drueck Dich ganz ganz dolle!
Happy Belated Cruelty-Free Week! I can’t believe Breaking Bad’s Jessie is in that movie, that’s so awesome, and I miss Breaking Bad now! I love donkeys, too, that photo is absolutely cute!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Rika! Same for you! :) I miss Breaking Bad too. I really want to re-watch the show at some point! Donkeys are some of my fave animals, they are so cool!
DeleteI've never heard about cutting a cat's ear, that's not very nice at all :(
ReplyDeleteSince I've been back in the US I've been forgetting about clothes in the washing machine. In France my washing machine was in the bathroom so I saw it all the time. Here it's in a laundry room... I put it in the washing maching, close the laundry room door and then forget all about it until hours later! I've had to re-wash clothes way too many times!
No, it is terrible to do something like that. I mean, you should be able to tell which one is your cat without that!
DeleteI know what you mean! I had the washer in the bathroom before and it was no problem to remember it but since it is in the basement....no chance. Glad I am not the only one!
