I ❤️ Koi! And of course I ❤️ Koi Ponds too 😊
Lately I’ve been studying Kanji & symbolism in Japan. Last Wednesday I wrote about how the Kanji for Koi & Love are 1 in the same… 😊 I LOVE that! Koi also symbolize several other things in Japanese culture that are worthy of note!
Swimming koi represent advancement and determination. Fish symbolize wealth & surplus!
In the Koi Pond, the synergy of the Koi & the Pond & the Waterfalls come together & Love & Friendship are manifested.
This is the Kanji for Koi as well as the Kanji for Love.
This Kanji means Friendship.
Tomorrow is Valentines Day, a day made for Love & Friendship! We could start a new tradition – Take that special someone to the Koi Pond on Valentines Day 😊 I better not get too carried away, but I thought it was a great Segway between the two…
I really enjoy learning more about the Japanese culture! And I always Love learning more about Koi & Koi Ponds 😊 I have forged many friendships around Koi Ponds! So cool! I truly ❤️ My Job!
Have a great day & enjoy your Koi!
PS: Happy Valentines Day Eve…
Happy Pondering 🤔

We seem to find our share of animals in need 😇 And sometimes in the darndest places!
We don’t know how this little guy found his way into our boat… But he was definitely lost!
When I first saw him hiding in my boat I actually thought it was a baby opossum 😮But instead it was a cute baby kitten that was very scared & very hungry!
He wouldn’t eat solid food, but lapped up some half&half 😊
After getting something in its belly he became a little socialite, visiting each one of us and being so sweet. We decided we had to find someone who wanted this little baby! 
Almost immediately we had someone say they would love to take her. BUT, she had to talk to her grandkids and their parents…
This lovely lady called her kids about adopting this little kitten for her grandkids! GREAT NEWS! – They worked it out and took this little baby into their family 😊
I LOVE it when things work out with abandoned animals! This little baby kitten found a forever home! That’s a success story in my book! What was lost is found and all’s good in a little part of the world 😊
Have a Great Day!

I just happened to be in the right place at the right time and was able to save this little puppy that someone just threw out into the street.
Someone literally threw this little puppy out in the street. She was so scared.
She was completely flea infested! I have never seen an infestation worse – WOW! Hundreds of fleas on this 1 little puppy 😞 She had scratched the fur off her neck where she had been itching so badly from all those fleas…
She had scratched the fur completely off in many areas fighting the fleas. It took several baths and quite a while with tweezers to get all the fleas.
After we got her all cleaned up, we got her to take some milk from a syringe & then off to the vet we went.
I don’t think she had eaten in a while.
The vet gave her the needed shots, wormed her, trimmed her nails & weighed her (1 lb). She’s around 7 weeks old. Now she’s sleeping soundly wrapped up in a blanket.
She’s sleeping & doing fine. It’s got to be a relief not to have all those fleas…
I think she’s gonna be ok 😊 All she needed was a little Love ❤️
