I love the picture of your little girl, and the clocks! Love those clocks.
Feel a little sorry for what your vacuum must go through with all that cat hair, though. But, she sure is big and cuddly looking.
I had a little cat named Cocoa that I loved to death. She was a runt we picked up at the shelter and nursed to health. She never was quite right in the head from a respiratory infection that never really went away, and possibly some neglect in her early days.
Thanks Weaves!
I must confess that I had Bob move out this past summer - Our house is on the market, and I couldn't keep up with the cleaning with him around! He now lives at Mr. W's office - no worries, he gets FAR MORE ATTENTION that way - people stop in just to see him - and give him presents! He is in kitty cat heaven!
Awww, poor Cocoa!
I love reading all these pet stories! Good thread, Pep!
Each year we have had to come up with ways to keep the cats out and let me tell you it is an exhausting task.
I gave up. The only adjustment I've made is, I put the expensive glass ornaments on the TOP of the tree, and non-breakable ones at the bottom. I also put a string of bells around the bottom ... it doesn't do much but slow them down, a little. But, at least I KNOW when they are fooling around with the tree.
Peps on a roll today. "I guess little fuzzy failed to launch" Good one!
[b]Other pets....the best pet I ever had was our daschund named Muffin that we got when I was in 9th grade. She was sweet and spastic and extremely funny (we had lots in common). She always knew when I was blue and would lay on my stomach and look up at me. She was attcked by the cat across the street and got cat scratch fever, which then developed into lupus. Yes, lupus. My parents loved that dog - they even got her gold treatments for the lupus. She lived to be 15./b]
I have a friend who has three daschunds and I agreed to dog sit them for a couple of days. Oh MY GAWD, what a bunch of babies. My friend thinks the sun and moon sets on those dogs. She even walks around with a purse that has their pictures painted on the side.
Daschunds owners are CRAZY for their dogs. (I almost said nerlycrazy, haha. I like that name, crazy, you could change it to halfcrazy now, maybe. And then in a few years to "aquartercrazy" or "fullblowncrazy" depending on how things progress. LOL
Anyway, I am babysitting a two year old for a while and she is way less work than those little dashunds were.

I too changed the placement of the ornaments on the tree, but hadn't thought of the bells......
Knowing my luck they would end up playing with the bells constantly
When i was young we had a dog named Droopy who loved to watch Saturday morning cartoons with us. He would sit right in the middle of the living room floor with me and my brothers all morning.
We had a yard sale last Sunday. Our neighbors were walking their pair of mastiff's ... they stopped by just to look at all our crap. And for a chat. I was sitting in a child's chair, drinking coffee. April, one of the dogs, came right up to me and slobbered all over me, in a friendly sort of way. She towered over me when I was in that chair. April's owner said: "You live with a Mastiff, drool is a given." I can only imagine, two mastiffs in one household
Wasn't "Droopy" the 8th Dwarf? The Dwarf that Disney had to fire from the film??? .... Because of sexual harassment of Snow White? I think Droopy said something like:
