Happy Thanksgiving to those of us who celebrate – and Happy Thursday to the rest of the world!
Tina the turkey is thankful for stuffing and pie (and all of YOU!)

“Are you sure they said 11:00? I don’t see anything in there but a roasting pan. Are we too early?”
(That picture was taken back in 2009, the first and last year we ever raised turkeys. I always say that God created chickens and then he said “Huh. I wonder if I could make something dumber than a chicken” and VOILA.)

Posted on social media (Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/Tumblr/ Bluesky) yesterday.
“You got Churu up there?” (Richie)
“Always somebody’s feet in my face,” thinks Jeff.

Introducing Tina to the disc launcher – it took her a minute to understand, but then she was all in!
(Don’t do a shot every time I say “Mama” or you’ll be under the table by the end of the video.)
Sydney and Carmy clammed up as soon as I walked into the room, but I’m pretty sure they were talking smack about how dirty that window is. Do I see them volunteering to clean it? I do NOT.

Up they go, like popcorn in the air. (All video is from before their spay/neuters. They’re back to pretty much normal, but I’m not encouraging them to leap up in the air just yet!)

I was trying to get Tina – who was sitting in the sunshine – to look at me, so I waved a packing strap around… which got the attention of the kittens, who had to come and see what was what. Note how nicely they line up at the end of the video. So well trained! (This was from before their spay/neuters; they’re doing fine today, but I’m not encouraging them to leap just yet.)
Good night innernets. (Sydney loaf, my favorite!)

Good grief, the kittens are nearly as big as Tina! Is she just that tiny or are they just that big?
She’s pretty small – and they’re getting pretty big! Last time I weighed her, she was a little more than 7 pounds. At his neuter, Carmy weighed 4 1/2 pounds. I think he’s going to be a big boy!
Happiest of Thanksgivings to you, Robyn, and the ENTIRE CREW!!!! #Thankful – – for all of it!
A very happy Thanksgiving to the Crooked Acre crew! Your photojournalism should be rewarded! At least it’s appreciated by your throng of fans. 😉
Happy Thanksgiving to you and Fred. That turkey picture cracks me up every year! (I’ve been a fan since March-ish of 2012).
Happy thanksgiving to you all, hope you have a great day.
Happy Thanksgiving and thank you for the flashback hat pictures on line!
Happy thanksgiving to you and Fred and all the permanent residents and fosters.
Aw haha, bless Tina in that video with the disc launcher, she just needed to see where they were coming from to get it but or the whole first half of the video she’s just so confused, i love it!!
10 shots of milk later and I’m ready for a nap! Loved seeing then jumping over each other.
Happy belated Thanksgiving!!
I’m thankful for this blog 🙂
