Dreaming on a rose

(Photo from The Daily Mail)

This is probably old news for most of you but I couldn’t resist to post the beautiful photo of the little sweet Dreamy. My daughter has been sleeping with this under her pillow for a couple of days now!

Dreamy was a snoozing baby dormouse nestled in the heart of a rose to hibernate for seven months.

But his blissful slumber was rudely interrupted by a dog. Fortunately he was rescued by the owner and taken to the Secret World Wildlife Rescue Centre in Somerset.

And staff there have made sure they fatten Dreamy up on hazelnuts and seeds before giving him a comfy coconut shell to doze off the rest of winter.

The most precious thing of the week!

A Moose Life

A friend of a friend from Canada sent me these very sweet pictures and they are so good that I'd like to share them with you, animal lovers.

Apparently a baby moose was in distress in a creek. A very nice man got him out of the creek; tried to find the mother & send him on his way, but eventually the moose stumbled back into the creek & needed to be rescued again. The baby moose then followed the man home.



The man has only a very small cabin so he took the moose to another neighbour, who took these photos. The next day they took the moose to a lady who looks after wild animals. She put it in a pen with a rescued fawn.




Needless to say my daughter Vicky now wants to move to Canada. She wants to go around with a van and rescue animals! I wish it was so easy!!!



Isn't he absolutely cute???
