"The purple poppy has long been a symbol of remembrance for animals lost in service but until recently was much less well known than the traditional red poppy. The aim of our Campaign is to give the purple poppy its rightful recognition, and thus ensure that the animals who served and continue to serve are not forgotten." - Murphy's Army
Remembering the sacrifices made by both humans and animals in times of war. We're joining The Cat On My Head for Sunday Selfies.

A scratch and a stretch...oh, yeah...
You can't beat a good scratch and stretch to start the day!
That's a great way to start the day, Athena! Thank you for posting the purple poppy to remember all the animals lost in service. XO

Athena, we start every morning with a big stretch too. Your photos are all lovely. We did not know about the purple poppy, but what a wonderful way to honor animals lost in service. Thank you for sharing.
