Me-Ommmmm
Me-ommmmm Efurrybuddy! It's November and that means it's National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo). Me and my brofur Ku pawticipated last year and we are doing so again. Clicky on over to Rocco's House to sign up to write your own chapter in this novel (MOL!) adventure. Any pet bloggers, not just doggies, can pawticipate! 

Previous Chapters:
1) Rocco
2) Brofur Ku
3) Hailey and Zaphod
4) Bongo 

Here is the next chapter in the adventure of a deserted pup…

I yelped again and began to whimper. The burning pain was becoming too intense. The door opened again, but this time a woman came out, saying to the man that she heard a pup crying. She called out: "Here doggie, doggie!" And she was trying to lure me out of the dark with…BACON!

I came right to her, gobbled it down, and gave her big big licks all over her face as a thank you. As she petted me she felt the cut on my back. "What happened poor guy? I'll just have to take you inside to bathe you and wash that wound clean."

No, not a BATH!

Tomorrow's chapter will be by Rocco! Stay tuned….Me-Ommmmmmmmmmmmm

Going on Retreat

Me-Ommmmm Efurrybuddy! As a great Swami and Yogicat I have committed myself to a life of constant practice and selfless service. Me, Mama, and Brofur Ku have been working furry furry hard to promote my book and Ku's book to raise awareness and money fur animal rescue. 

We thank those who have bought my book and who have tweeted, re-blogged, etc.!!! However, sales are almost nil and we must turn our attention to other ways of spreading the word. We have also told Mama that she could spend more time building her animal healing and her spiritual counseling practices (Astrology and Tarot/Oracle Readings - she is furry furry good!), which she juggles around caring fur the Grandma who has Alzheimer’s.

However, do not worry about Me, for I will of course continue on as the great Shri Swami Sattvapurrrrrananda and be on an intensive Yoga Retreat! Me-Ommmmm

Yin-Yang Yoga

Me-Ommmmm Efurrybuddy! Today I'd like to demonstrate a lovely Yoga Asana for the Chinese New Year, called Yin-Yang Yoga. All you need is a yoga partner, preferably a cat of the opposite gender or personality type or color or something opposite.  And then you position yourselves curled up in opposite directions. Here let me demonstrate:

This is close, but brofur Apollo is hogging my space.

Now that he's repositioned, we stretch first to make sure we can get into this very challenging Asana!

Now this is a purrrrfect example of Yin-Yang Yoga!
Hold the pose for an extended period of time, or
until you feel at peace and in harmony with All.

Gung Hay Fat Choi! Me-Ommmmm

Blog the Change Fur Animals!

Me-Ommmmm Efurrybuddy! Today is Blog the Change day! Here is a pawesome haiku my brofur Ku wrote for this special day:

“You must be the change
You wish to see in the world”
Gandhi was so wise

  • What have you done to Be the Change for Animals?
  • Who do you know who acts tirelessly on the behalf of animals?
  • What favorite cause has a special need right now?
As some of you know, both me and brofur Ku have written books to help raise money fur animal rescue! We both will donate 50% of the proceeds to animal rescue organizations.

Unfortunately I have only sold a couple of books in the past couple of months. Me, and Ku, and Mama are working on more ways to market them, but we would appreciate all of your help to spread the word via social media outlets. Let's all be the change together! Me-Ommmmmm

Happy re-Birthday My Brofur Ku!

Me-Ommmmm Efurryone! I'm so excited to tell efurryone that Saturday the 11th is my little brofur Kuruk's re-Birthday! Yes, you read that right. You see, Ku was born at a puppy mill in Alaska and lived on a 4-foot chain his first couple of years of life. Luckily the puppy mill was shut down and Ku and his whole pack of nearly 160 snow pups went into rescue. That day was 1-11-11!



Before: Brofur Ku not long after the puppy mill when he 
was with his foster Mama. He was scared of efurrything!


After: Brofur Ku now as a happy happy pup!

When Mama brought Ku home, she decided that since no one knew Ku's real birthday that 1-11-11 would be Ku's first re-Birthday! So Ku is going to be 4!!! He's come such a long long way in the past three years. Me and Mama and efurryone are so so proud of my little brofur Ku! We wuvwuvwuv you Ku!

Fur his re-Birthday, Mama got brofur Ku and sisfur Nalle new XL beds! It was a pawesome find! Here, let me show them to you:



This new big big bed is so fluffy and cozy! Purrrrfect 
for some hours-long meditations!


Ku is so nice to let me use his bed fur my yoga too!


Brofur Apollo and sisfur Nalle napping together!

Please visit my brofur fur his re-Birthday on Saturday! I want him to be surprised with lots of extra birthday wishes. He deserves them! Ku's bloggy is: Haiku By Ku, and if you want to know more of his story:

To read the newspaper story about his rescue, click here.
To see a video about his rescue and journey from Alaska to Washington, click here.
If you’d like to support animal rescue and learn more about his rescue and healing journey, you can buy his book. Check out Kuruk: The Little Bear That Could here!

Sunday Easy Yoga

Me-Ommmmm Efurryone! For today's Sunday Easy, I'd like to demonstrate Yoga Nidra, which is yoga "sleep." It's really a very deep state of meditation, where you are fully conscious or lucid, but look like you are asleep. It's very easy!


Here I am practicing Yoga Nidra with Brofur Apollo. 
He is to my right, practicing under the covers because 
he felt chilly. Yoga Nidra is often practiced in Shavasana,
but it can be done in any comfortable yoga pose.
Here we are in Parivritta Shavasana
(revolved corpse pose).



Here I am practicing Yoga Nidra with sisfur Nalle.
I am in Sphinx Asana, and Nalle is in Parsvashavasana
(side corpse pose).


Here brofur Apollo is practicing Yoga Nidra in
Shashankasana (pose of the moon or hare pose).

Have a Happy Easy Sunday Efurryone! Me-Ommmmm!
