Today is Nothing To Fear Day, where we commemorate Franklin D. Roosevelt's first inaugural address, in which he famously said, "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself." The world is a scary place, perhaps more now than ever. It's easy to be paralyzed by dread and anxiety. Today, take the opportunity to consider how you can push back against panic and despair. You might draw some inspiration from last week's furry friends. Like Eva, who valiantly fought a mountain lion to save her human. And thankfully lived to cuddle another day.
Welcome to Fur Face Friday.
In case you're new here, favorites are chosen by one of the Snout Selectors (facw, k2b, Hannibal, leahaven, Iroqdemic and myopicprophet), entirely on our own whimsy. WHIMSY! However, in the interest of solidarity, we try to select one dog picture and one cat picture (minimum!) each week. Other pets will also, of course, be considered. We love all your rats, bunnies, ferrets, and other furry, feathery, and finny pals. WE WILL NEVER DISCRIMINATE AGAINST CUTE.
CTSenVy's buddy, style maven Grayson, throws caution to the wind and mixes things up. The results are fabulous.
KiltedPadre and Ruby aren't scared of fame. They put their celebrity to good use.
Bianca, one of Krispy Porkchops shelter cats overcame her fear of the new surroundings enough to enjoy a belly rub, meal, and a nap.
It's Ginaaa's Cosmo is not afraid to do some soul searching. What looks like napping is in fact, a moment of introspection.
Bertolt Brechtiosaurus's Huxley is never timid about asking for affection.
So please, don't be intimidated by these beauties. Show us your fur faces!
