Tico was raised by two cats, so he qualifies!

A white and cream Kleinspitz (a fluffy little dog) is lying on a green + brown camo blanket that protects a greyish brown sofa. He is looking into the camera and lies half in sunlight. There's a pile of sofa cushions behind him. The background is a wall of wooden planks.

"Where's our breakfast?"

I guess it is time to prioritize their hunger above my temporarily very low pain situation. It was very nice while it lasted.
A golden brown Finnish lapphund and a white and cream Kleinspitz are staring up at me imploringly. Her head is in my lap, on my army green skirt, he is standing beside my easy chair.

"A few more scratches, pretty please?"
A golden brown Finnish lapphund is sitting very close to my chair, pressing herself against my right leg and staring up at me pleadingly.

Quote this with a book you read way too young that explains why you are the way you are.

Ursula K. Le Guin's Earthsea series (when it was still just a trilogy), specifically The Tombs of Atuan.
A cover of The Tombs of Atuan (the 2001 edition by Aladdin paperbacks). A pale woman, wrapped in a dark blue, long hooded cloak is walking towards the bottom right, followed by a brown man who is wearing a rust colored tunic and a green short cloak. He is carrying a staff that is lit at one end. The background is undefined, blotches of greenish, lighter blue.

These two agree, with the addition of #cheese to nr 1

Delphi, a golden brown Finnish lapphund, and Tico, a white and cream Kleinspitz, stare up at me, because I am eating a (goat gouda) cheese sandwich.

A very familiar reaction:

"When will it be my turn?"

(alt text has some details)
Tico, a white and cream Kleinspitz lying on the dog mat, staring in the direction of the back yard. Delphi, a golden brown Finnish lapphund, sniffing for morning news in the backyard grass - maybe the fox has been here while we slept? (the marquis behind her was taken down for the painting of the house in late July, and is waiting for a rain free evening when we can get a third person to help in putting it back up) In the foreground the wheelchair / walker ramp

Goodnight from Finland!

Good morning from Finland! Hope your coffee/tea is as good as mine, or better.

♥️ (heart)

Second try to post a real photo
A photo of a tall "Taika" (magic) mug with some almond latte in it. The image on the mug is a fantasy forest with a turquoise deer-like animal and a teal and rust bird sitting on its antlers.
