Peas and carrots

It’s time for another No Frown Friday!  To paraphrase Forrest Gump, this week we’re talking about animals that go together like peas and carrots…

  1. This week’s punny pet names would be perfect for your very own feline-canine odd couple:  Felix Ungrrrr and Oscar Meowdison.
  2. Speaking of odd couples, I enjoyed this slideshow of unlikely animal friendships.  Some of these stories are familiar.  Others are new.  All are sweet.  My personal favorite is the tale of Tarra the elephant and Bella the dog (not my Bella, but I do enjoy the coincidence).  These two friends have even inspired a children’s book (link via Pet Project).
  3. Sometimes animals take the odd friendship to the next level – forming an odd animal family.  I got a little misty reading this sweet tale of a chihuahua who adopted nine kittens.  (The mama dog’s name is Buttercup… double coincidence alert!  That was the name of my first kitty.)
  4. It seems that animal odd couples are everywhere – here are more photos for you to check out.  It’s always good to have extra cute on hand, after all.  The face on this pup alone will keep my cute-o-meter full for days.

In closing, I leave you with the following video… it’s the story of a dog-cat odd couple set to a rockin’ soundtrack:

(Another video of this pair can be found here.)

Who says only birds of a feather stick together?  These odd couples have the right idea – it’s what’s on the inside that counts.  Have a great weekend, darlings!
