All hail the platypus

Some superb gifts I received from my friend Stormi :



Yes, he really swims!


Next: a platypus designed (apparently) for dogs to chew upon -- with eggs inside! (Also chewable!!) (And, of course, "replacement egg babies"!)





Live platypus birth! :



(Sadly, there are not actual little baby platypuses inside the furry eggs.) : |



Fortunately, our dog expressed profound indifference to both the platypus and her furry egg babies. (Fortunate for the DOG, that is -- cause platypuses have sharp venomous claws on their feet. Don't mess with the platypus; you have been warned...)

(Platypuses? ... Or "platypi"? ... I must research this ...)

To Stormi I say: muchas, muchas gracias, lady! You're the GREATEST!!


(But, then, I should really just shut my bloody trap. Shouldn't I.)
