It was a strange weather weekend here in Southern California. It ranged from sunlit blue skies peppered with bright fluffy clouds, to rain, snow (yes, snow) and gloomy skies.

This week, I’ll be heading back to the Midwest to visit family and friends. I’ll be gone for a couple weeks, but I’ll be taking photos galore and posting them when I can. There won’t be any Wordless Wednesdays or Friday Flops for a couple weeks, but they’ll resume when I get back.

I’ll also be away from my email, so if you need to contact me, please send me a note at Info@ChristaThatcher.com and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.

Adios (for a little while)!

You saw the adoptable pooches yesterday, now here are their feline friends! All of these cats are available at the Lange Foundation.

If you’re interested in any of these beautiful cats, they’re available for adoption at the Lange Foundation.

I’m SO EXCITED to be working with the Lange Foundation. I’ve been dying to find an organization where I can utilize my photography skills to help any way I can, and I really hope that these photos help these animals find their Forever Homes. But really, who wouldn’t love to add any of these darling babies to their family?

Now, without further ado, here are the precious adoptables!

This is Mini Suki, a mixed-breed baby who’s hanging out with her brothers, Dexter & Dash. They’re all ah-dorable. I thought about taking them all home.

Fun fact: Dexter was the runt of the litter. As you can see, he’s since surpassed his brother and sister in size. And appetite.

I had the nerve to interrupt his meal.

Then we have Dash.

If you think he’s happy now, imagine how happy he’d be to go home with you!

Ack! Puppy kisses! *dies*

Moving on from those intoxicating pups, we have Warwick.

Warwick has had leg surgery, but oh golly, that doesn’t slow him down. Most of the pictures of him were little black blurs. This boy is rambunctious!

I really fell in love with beautiful Gypsy.  She’s very thoughtful and smart as a whip!

This darling little dumpling is Alex.

The Lange Foundation is planning on removing his left eye, but he’s such a sweet little baby, he should have no problem winning someone’s heart once he’s ready for adoption! He’s already mastered his side-eye

Bentley is such a handsome boy! And absolutely full of energy!

Milo’s ready for his Forever Home AND his close-up!

Lady is a senior gal who’s sweet as can be. Don’t get so caught up in the puppy love that you forget about the amazing senior pups who give just as much love & affection as their younger counterparts. Lady’s just a little lover!

Pookie’s a shy boy, but a GREAT dog!

Oh Lizzie…

Lizzie’s a shy gal, too, but she’s so sweet! She’ll climb in your lap and make herself at home.

This darling little marshmallow is… yet to be named. Maybe Curly? Maybe Charlie? Definitely adorable and waiting for his Forever Home!

And last, but not least, we have Tigger.

He made himself right at home in front of my camera. What a great pup!

If you’re interested in any of these wonderful dogs, please contact the Lange Foundation. They do amazing work to help these animals find homes, and I’m so happy I’ve teamed up with them!

Stay tuned for the Cats this weekend!

I went down to the shore last week to see some incredibly high tides and surf (stay tuned for more about that next week!), and took some time to stop at one of my favorite parks to see how the water was behaving.

As I sat atop one of the bluffs, I noticed something out in the water. It was brownish and shiny. And large.

I got excited. It looked like a big group of seals was just hanging out offshore.

I took about 15 more pictures of the group when I realized they… weren’t really moving all that much.

Hmm…

So I pulled up one of the photos on my camera and zoomed in to find:

Kelp. (For my landlocked readers, kelp is very large underwater algae that grows in “forests.”)

Birds can’t laugh, right?

D’oh!
