Anyone who knows me is aware that I’m a crazy animal woman. That is, I love animals. A lot. And I want to squeeze them all until their little heads pop off. Vancouver has been good to me with its vast array of small dogs that I can accost to my heart’s content. Here is one of my favourite victims, little Pixie who I met at the Sylvia Hotel:
Best of all have been the racoons of Stanley Park. They’re such cool animals, like little bears, and so dextrous with their front paws. We went for a walk at dinner time to Lost Lagoon and on the way, we bumped into these little guys:
They were very intrigued by the camera. I think they were hoping it was edible! The Canadian geese got some treats too. I felt like an empress surrounded by her minions! It’s amazing how benevolent some stale bread can make you feel.
Stanley Park Squirrels are also pretty big fans of my superior animal feeding abilities:
You’re welcome, animals of Vancouver!
