I'm glad that you all like Maya and Magic

I'd be interested to know what you were told about Dusty's ears as well, Catlady - were you told they were cut?? It breaks my heart to think that someone did that to her.

EmeraldGreen, the first thing I said when I met Magic was "My god, she looks like a mini panther!" and one of the ladies there said "Unfortunately we think that's the effect they were going for".

Our dogs both just LOVE cats. We fostered kittens here non stop for a long time, so they got very used to them and are great around them. Magic is still a little leery of the dogs, but have improved SO much since getting here. She'll hang out on the couch with them now, but not quite sleep on them like Maya does. Both pups act really maternal towards cats, and Molly has actually been caught on a few occasions carrying a kitten in her mouth - she quickly drops them when she sees me looking at her though. One time I saw her from around the corner, and I stayed quiet to see what she was intending on doing with it - she carried it gingerly into her crate, and gave it a bath. I was so proud of her!
