Smokey the Koala Bear

Here is what the Herald Sun had to say about Sam the Koala.

SAM became the most famous koala in the world when firefighter David Tree stopped to give her a drink amid the devastation.

Carer Jenny Shaw said she suffered burns on her paws and was in a lot of pain, but was on the road to recovery. She was put on an IV drip and is on antibiotics and pain relief treatment. "She is lovely - very docile - and she has already got an admirer. A male koala keeps putting his arms around her," Ms Shaw said. "She will need regular attention and it will be a long road to recovery, but she should be able to be released back into the wild in about five months."
I don't think it gets any cuter than a firefighter rescuing a koala.

I cry every time I watch that video. I'm a sucker for koalas.

I'm bummed for the people in Australia. I'm sending good thoughts and prayers their way!

Have a great day everyone, and if you aren't just think of Sam and David. If that doesn't make you feel better, I don't know what will.

Love,

Elle Bunny aka Kimmy Koala

P.S. Unfortunately I made a mistake and deleted my first Wordless Wednesday post and Spaghetti Cat-Friday's Fun Fearless Feline post. Hopefully I will redo these soon for my own sanity. Sorry if you wanted to look at them!
