Free Range Free Chat

Happy Presidents Day, a great day to start our new Monday Free Chat dedicated to animals, pets or wild, and I’m celebrating animals back in the White House, especially the newest addition, a cat named Winston in the Biden household, much needed (I’m sure!) to teach those dogs who’s in charge and who is not. . . .

Today we’re looking at presidents pets, but its a free chat, so fill us in on your own pet stories, animal fascinations, crazy ideas and all that make up this News Views Republic of Animals.

BTW, Gifs, photos, memes, tweets and video clips are fine, just make sure video clips are short enough so they’ll be watched– no more than a minute or two– but the best of the best? Your comments, stories, theories and insights—- so animal lovers of NV– whatcha got?
