Diva Kitty can open drawers! Her favorite is one next to the bathtub. She stands on the tub, hooks her paws around the drawer edge, and pulls it out. She then uses it as a step to get on the bathroom counter.

Thank goodness Tiny Dog can NOT open drawers.

Today Mr. Potato ate a LARGE protein bar. Like 7 inches long, a couple inches wide, and half an inch in height. I had taken a bite and then left it on a table next to my recliner. I went out to the grocery store and I found the empty package, in the middle of the kitchen floor when I returned, "clean as a whistle". The package had traveled quite a way from the table the protein bar was sitting on. I am still not sure how he had even gotten to it.

Thank you! Grover proved his name this morning! Damn!! I bought this ping pong ball shooter which came with 10 (glow in the dark) balls. He's lost all but three and he keeps losing those under doors (closet, bedrooms laundry room) or under the china cabinet and will then scream bloody murder until I retrieve is and then throw it for him! I swear he knocks them under them on purpose just to see me FETCH them myself! lol

F's colors... well, I'm going to post some pics. All three are different shades or marmalade (orange) and F's is the lightest of color... almost a buff (I think it's called) color.

Let's me post some pics of these beasts!

The unnamed beastie...



Here's Chewy...



Grover ... doing what Grover does when he loses a ball! lol

Buster? Carmello? Milo? Toby? Harley?

How about Loki? If he's as mischievous as you say, that might be appropriate.

Chester the Molester?

Jinx? Morris? Zeus? Charlie? Thor?

Mars, for the god of war since he turns play into battle?

Pip? Dexter? Bailey? Chance? Socks?

Houston, we have a problem?

Jake? Sonny/Sunny? Julian? Moses (reverse psychology?)?

I can do this all day.

Like any of these?

My babydog Hella Bellarella is having surgery as we speak. I'm worried and have anxiety but still telling myself she will be fine. She should be out in an hour and I'll try not to pull my hair out until then.

((((((((Ang))))))))))))))))))) Bella is in great hands & will come through this surgery well! You are a good & loving mommie & your concern is for your baby. But she is going to do swell....I believe & have faith in goddesses to carry her safely through.....this afternoon she will be home & expecting AND getting lots of kisses from you!!

I am sitting in the kitchen with Willow and we are watching/listening to the news. The phone starts to ring and I can see by the number it is a telemarketer. Every time the phone rings, Willow answers with, "Hello.". I proceeded to explain to her about telemarketers, as the phone continued to ring and she continued to say, "Hello.". When the phone finally stopped ringing, she stopped helloing and I stopped explaining, she gave me a long chuckle. I think that bird was busting on me!

Monte is all snuggled up in his holiday print fleecy throw picked up at an after Christmas sale. I decided to crochet an edge around it to pretty it up for gift giving next year and went in search of yarn. When I returned, less than two full minutes later, there he was on top of it all hunkered down. Defiantly refusing to budge and looking up at me as if to say – Oh yeah? Make me! As if he didn’t already have a large enough collection of season appropriate, fleecy blankets of his own. I reached for it. He looked at me with a warning scowl, as if to say - Back away from the blanket and nobody needs to get hurt. I thought - Okay then, so Christmas in February it is. Still even though I realized resistance on my part would be futile, I did attempt my best to reason with him one last time, imploring – But what of the poor children in true need living in poverty next Christmas? Staring unconcernedly up at me indifferent, he turned his head away as if to say – So what of it? Let them eat cake! Then without a worry, care, concern in the world, he promptly passed right out.

TY Clay!

She's out and everything went well! I got to go see her at lunch and will bring her home in the morning. Thank goodness for talented vets and resilient little furballs!

5:30am. Pitch black and freezing out. Snowed all night and still coming down. I'm barefoot in my jammies and my dog gets tied up on his runner around a part of a tree that fell overnight. So I had to throw on the freezing cold snow boots that were out on the back porch and waddle out there in the cold and dark with snow pouring down to untangle him. He didn't even say thank you.

One of my cats threw up on my daughters bed.

That's about it.

The kitties are in training for the superbowl. I have been throwing the nurff football for both of them. I think that I am doing most of the work but it is super fun.

Not really a pet, but, we have a bunch of bunnies that live on the land around here. My next door neighbor came knocking on my door about an hour ago- which scared me, cause it's late, to tell me that there was a bunny stuck in the fence between our yards. It had been running from her dogs and got stuck. My daughter, my neighbor, and I were able to bend the rods in the fencing and ease her out. Poor little bunny!

[Bèsame*]

Confetti kitty not to happy with me today. I took her to the vet, she got her ear dug in, an antibiotic shot and ten claws trimmed. Poor little kitty has a sinus infection.

She will be back loving me in a few days.

Bella has a routine every morning when I make coffee. My Keurig is next to the sink and I stand on a little rug as I'm filling it with water. Every single morning, Bella waits for me to stand on the rug and start fiddling with the coffee pot and inevitably I will feel her sit her entire hairy ass on my foot with her back lengthened against my leg.

She leans against me and looks up with those biggo brown eyes and I can't help but lean down and snuggle her as the coffee starts dripping.

I've read in a couple of places that dogs do this to show they trust you. It's a pretty sweet feeling.

Hope, who is my little senior dachshund whom is blind. She is staying with my BFF's while I am away. They call me every day with the daily Hope report.

She is a really sweet dog to have come from the deplorable conditions she did. She was a hoarder's animal...one of the SIXTY who lived inside & none had ever gone outside...a neighbor reported the people to Animal Welfare who went out with deputies....the conditions that were described. I do NOT call her their pet NOR was she in a HOME. They were told to get rid of x number of the animals AND to clean that pig sty up OR have ALL the animals removed AND evict the people.

So Hope & a male dachshund, whom she was bred with..were put inside a plastic tote, duct taped shut, & left overnight at a shelter.

Her name was "Mabel"...I renamed her Hope...as I wanted her to have hope for a much better quality of life after the shitty first 8 years AND she was bringing hope to me for happier times to come my way once again. It was a shitty summer for me as well.

So, anyway, long story...Hope is such a sweet, gentle, & very trusting little soul once she got used to me (took a day) & she feels secure & safe. All the hair on her back & legs had come out, she had a horrible skin condition, chewed her leg hair & skin incessantly. Now she is on a med every day, gets bathed weekly, AND her hair has grown back a rich chestnut reddish brown & is curly. She is a semi longhaired little dachsie. She absolutely LOVES to get into shower with me...and just lays on bench beside me...she even lets me brush her teeth.

Hope has indeed brought me hope & I love her immensely. She gives me so much on a daily basis...so that is what my pet does..every day

Wasn't today but yesterday....

I was walking with my dogs and our shared foster dog at lake Lure. The lake is being drained right now for dam repairs. So

I let Arya, the 11 year old hound we foster for her owner, go So she could get a drink from the lake. Well...

She heard squirrels frolicking on the other side of the lake and crossed the channel to Chase them up the hill. It took some doing to get her attention and make her cross back over. Thank God she came back. I would have had to cross over myself and get her.
