Kids That Look Like Their Pets

Time for Friday Fancies!

Do pets take after their people?  Remember the scene from 101 Dalmations (the animated classic) where Pongo searches for a mate for Roger?  He looks at the dogs as much as the humans to find the “right match.”  But does this happen in real life?  Take a look.

Unfortunately, the owner of the video disabled embedding, but if you have a sec to click over and watch it on YouTube, you’ll find those 48 seconds worth it.

Do your pets take after you?  What about personality traits?

And for a weekend mash-up of fun reads:

Oooh, Sexy! Shoes! by Marcia Richards–Some of these are crazy.

What’s Wednesday without…typewriter magic? by Naomi Bulger–This is so cool!

Cinderella Can Save Herself; Guest post by Kait Nolan on Kristal Lee’s blog–Kait takes a look at a great fairy tale highlighting strength and self-reliance, Ever After.

The Search for Kindle Tablet and Fresh New Authors by Kate MacNicol–Talk Kindles and peruse Kate’s list of books by self-pubbed and indie authors.

Video I Love: Say What? by Raelyn Barclay–Have you seen those old Gallagher skits?  How about this one on the English language?

Some incredible pieces of flash fiction:

In Time by Sonia Medeiros–Very powerful.

A Royal Retribution by Katy Hulme–Great twist at the end.
