Eat your heart out, Lassie!
Masha, a long-haired tabby cat, saved the life of a baby abandoned in the streets of Russia — after she climbed into the box he was discarded in and kept him warm, health officials said.
“The baby had only been outside for a few hours and thanks to Masha … he was not damaged by the experience,” a hospital spokesman told Central European News.
The whiskered hero even meowed to get the attention of a passerby.
“She is very placid and friendly, so when I heard her meowing, I thought that perhaps she had injured herself,” said Obninsk city resident Irina Lavrova. “Normally she would have come and said hello to me. You can imagine my shock when I saw her lying in a box next to a baby.”
Masha is a communal cat who is looked after by local residents. When she found the baby — who appeared to be in great shape — she immediately took to him as if he were her own, according to CEN.
“Clearly her mothering instincts had taken over and she wanted to protect the child,” Lavrova explained. “He was well-dressed with a little hat, and whoever left him here had even left a few nappies and some baby food.”
The baby was immediately rushed to a local hospital, where he was given a checkup and declared fit and healthy, officials said. Since the child was found, Masha has been hailed as a hero by local residents — and she’s been reaping the benefits.

Officially now splitting my time between my place in Markham and my mom's house in Etobicoke - hence the location update. Hope to meet with my Realtor next week to make some plans. Maybe when I sell my house, I'll be more comfortable referring to my mom's as "mine".
what a great memory, mechman!
'the wonderful world of disney' was a sunday staple at our place, as was the ed sullivan show.

Back when families spent time together and watched TV. I can remember watching Bonanza at the cottage on our old Silvertone B & W. Remember when the screen went flip-flip-flip & you would play with the vertical and horizontal buttons & it was always fixed briefly-temporarily. Or maybe you could tap on the side of the TV & adjust the bunny ears. We used to get one station at the cottage and that was CKVR Barrie.
Now I would like some popcorn please!
:) :) :) :)

Wow, look at those three gold stars twinkling in a row,
Congratulations to you, now you can smile & glow,
I wish we still had those prezzies that we bestow upon others,
Cause it was fun to share them with all you sisters & handsome brothers,
This is a mini poem cause it contains just a mini verse,
Remember if you have a rep-mergency, to call the reppin' nurse.
"This is a test. For the next sixty seconds, this station will conduct a test of the Emergency Broadcast System. This is only a test. If this had been an actual emergency, you would have been instructed to tune to one of the broadcast stations in your area."
Usually on WKBW during Commander Tom.
