Yes, my zoo! There's no other way to describe it!
It's crazy and crowded and fun and certainly never boring!
And this concludes the A to Z Challenge!
It was more fun that I thought it would be and I met lots of new, great bloggers.
Hope you'll join us next April when we do it all over again!

The perfect way to end! I like your zoo!
ReplyDeleteyes, I had to use 'zoo' didn't I? ha.
DeleteHey, that reminds me of my house!
ReplyDeletereally? haha...glad to know I'm not alone! :)
DeleteI like your zoo AND I like hearing what they are up to all of the time!
ReplyDeletewell, I love your little farmette! :)
DeleteYes betsy Zoo is perfect for you I think:)
ReplyDeleteyes, it is a zoo for sure. ha. I think Pat named it that.
DeleteI get the fame
DeleteFor giving you the name
yes, and if your head swells
DeleteI will pop it well!
haha.
I live in a zoo too! Life is never boring is it?
ReplyDeletenever! But I love it that way!
DeleteAnd I admit
ReplyDeleteFor the end of the A to Z bit
I knew that is what you would chose
For I didn't even need any clues
As I use it all the time
When I come here to rhyme
And still crack up with marmy on the roof
Acting like quite the goof
For the A to Z has come due
And you really truly absolutely have a zoo..haha
I know! I just said you gave us that name
Deleteand it stuck and has grown to some fame!
It shouldn't be called by any other
as zoo is just perfect for this mother.
Yes, Marmy still does the neighborhood patrol
he'll be up there when he's old!
He's taken Grey and Charcoal up, too!
I'm sure the neighbors think we're a bunch of loons!
haha well at least you know their about
DeleteWithout even a shout
As they pitter patter on the roof
Like some goof
Just need to teach them morse code
Then you'll now whether person or toad
Who is coming near
And can give an oh dear
haha Maybe all nine could be up there at once
Deleteand if a toad comes, they could all give a pounce
landing on their head
oh, that would cause dread
but would be funny to see
as I hid inside. tee hee.
hahaha all nine on the roof at the same time would bring you fame
DeleteNo crown wouldn't be needed after such a game
They'd always know you as roof of cats
Who scare away the rats
and I'm sure you're the best Keeper out there! :) Hope you have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteIt should be a good week. Right now I'm looking forward to the quiet house tomorrow and doing some housecleaning all alone! ha. Hope yours is wonderful, too!
