    Both kids also had their rooms cleaned and vacuumed in about 30 minutes yesterday. I think they're trying to send Mom a message.

    WOW!!! - look at that smile. I'll bet she'd never stop smiling if she had a little brother too - like Rocky! He's little - won't take up much room or eat a lot, and would be a great lap warmer in the cold weather. Don't you agree????? - hint-hint. And besides that - PT needs a Lhasa pup.

    Unfortunately, that just wouldn't be in the cards. The one KNOWN issue she has is toy aggression with other dogs. (Not furkids, just other canines).

    She's excellent with kids, when they were playing outside she immediately backed off of whatever frisbee or ball the kids were playing with her with.

    Cat tested

    Great news. I love that you are going to have another doggie in your house. There is nothing like it. I assume the new pup has been kitty tested? Can't wait for the new photos and stories.

    So sorry to hear about Lady. She was loved, for sure.

    Don't forget to keep us posted. You know how we all love pictures!

    Okay, for starters THIS WAS NOT PLANNED!

    I just wanted to scritch some ears.

    That's all I wanted.


    LOH has passed her audition.

    Angel comes home Friday. She hasn't been Kitty tested, but both cats have their claws and more vertical than Angel has. Her name will be Angel, not Angel eyes, because it fits with the progression of dog names.

    Gracie was a klutz, Lady wasn't a Lady....and now Angel, because while she has a sweet smile, has a somewhat bent halo.

    It never is - that's the beauty of it.

    And that's why I couldn't go near a shelter or the Petsmart adoption center after I lost Sparky! Besides, Miss Myndi would NOT have approved.

    Congrats. May Angel have many happy and healthy years in your care.

    Hello, Angel! It is very nice to meet you this afternoon! I like your happy face! Do you like to receive petting? There is this place called Thursdays that I visit sometimes where I can be with friends, drink tea or coffee (or sometimes something stronger) and give petting and lovies. (Well, virtual petting and lovies anyway) I am sure your young humans will help you play with toys, serve you a yummy treat and maybe take walks around the block or longer! Welcome to PT!!!!!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!

    So sorry to hear of the loss of Lady, but congratulations on your beautiful new addition!

    If each pet we love takes a part of our heart and replaces it with a part of theirs, my heart is a very strange collection of pieces, but I wouldn't have it any other way

    Angel is not a pittie, she is a Boxer/Bulldog mix, and she's not home quite yet, but a work in progress! The Lhasa mix was just a "therapy" visit - he's smaller than Patch (resident rambunctious kitty at the house) and so not a good match for that house!

    We're going to owe the shelter $100 in dog toys at this point. We're running a 2 toy per visit average.

    Friday should be......interesting.

    Ah, okay! For a quick glance this morning she looked like a Pitty but now I see, she definitely looks like a Boxer mix. She has quite the smile I must say!

    Thought there should be an update, Angel is now home and apparently doing quite well. Pics and further updates to follow.
    RIP Lady, Thursday's won't be the same without you to cuddle with by the fire

    this was the first report I received from LH while I was at work, after he got her home,

    "Good news? I told her no and she left Trill alone, dropped the toys she scavenged from Axel's room, etc.

    She has good table manners (no, I didn't share much beyond a couple smidgens of ham)

    The bad news? She got to Trill before I could intercept. Trill is fine, Angel's nose got whacked, and trill is currently hiding in MJ's room.

    Patch arched the entire cat and disappeared into the laundry room."

    The reaction from the cats was not unexpected especially from the old girl Trillian. Patch's reaction just creates an interesting visual.
