If you live in an area where bobcats roam, chances are you have either one or have heard stories from your neighbors. These wild cats may be elusive creatures, and […]
Some dogs are playful. Some are protective. And then there are the ones that just know when something is up. You don’t have to say a word because they can feel it. They will rest their head on your lap when you’ve had a rough day, follow you quietly from room to room, or just […]
