 I haven’t posted any pictures of the dogs lately and Sascha presented with a nice little pose, so I figured I’d take advantage of the opportunity. For those who don’t know, or don’t want to hunt within the blog, Sascha is my German Shepherd that I have imported from the Czech Republic. She’s 6 years…

 Leecy took this picture. This was not staged. This is our new kitten Deliliah who decided she should jump in this straw hat and pose for a picture.

 Probably not what you think. Leecy provided these pictures. Delilah, our adopted rescue kitty really seems to like Sascha, my German Shepherd. In truth, Sascha seems to like the kitty as well. However, I wonder what Sascha must be thinking? “Why’s this kitten playing with my ear?” Why am I in the crate when the…

 I don’t know what we’re going to do with our kitty, Delilah. She appears to be so uncomfortable and can’t relax. Oh, sure, she fell asleep on Leecy’s lap, but is that really a relaxed kitty?:-)

 I got Leecy’s permission before posting this picture. It’s pretty obvious what’s occurring in this picture. Leecy was taking a little cat nap, and of course Delilah decided to join her. I figured this would be a perfect opportunity to get some more pictures. After I snapped a couple of quick test shots, Delilah barely…

 It hasn’t taken very long for Delilah (the kitten) to bond with Maggie (the Golden Retriever) and Sascha (the German Shepherd). Sascha seems to be the most bonded with Delilah as she follows her everywhere and licks her at every opportunity. On the other hand, Maggie, being true to her character, doesn’t seem to care…

 Good news for Delilah yesterday. She got the “all clear” from the vet regarding her respiratory infection. She and Chloe get along great, as well as her and the dogs. In fact, her favorite playmate (other than Chloe) seems to be Sascha, my German Shepherd. We also got her a new toy today. I think…

 Okay, before I get to the story, let me assure you that this is 100% true and not exaggerated. We decided to let Delilah out to play, hoping that she is almost over her respiratory infection (she goes back to the vet on Friday). Surprisingly, our other cat Chloe decided it was time to quit…

 Whereas Maggie is so full of grace when she’s swimming, Sascha is more like a Mack Truck diving in the pool. Sascha has no concept of half speed or just slowly moving through the water. She has to attack the water, she rush back as fast as she can so she can go back in….

 It’s getting close to that time where I can’t control when Maggie will decide to get in the pool. Today was a perfect example. Maggie slowly waddles over to the edge of the pool and gently glides in the water. That’s not Maggie’s favorite pool activity however. What she really likes to do is to…

Another day, another rescue. I’m hopeful this will be short term and not a big deal. Leecy took Delilah to the vet today just to make sure everything is okay. Now before I tell you the results, I did suspect that something was slightly amiss with the kitty. As it turns out, Delilah has a…

 However, it appears to be pretty localized at this point in time. Pet owners were beginning to report peculiar symptoms the day before and appear to be getting worse. What originally begins as typical scratching post behavior explodes into using the human form as a scratching post and climbing tree. Less reliable news sources suggest…

 I knew this would happen sooner or later. I made the mistake (not really) of telling Leecy I read this article the other day where they were going to be euthanizing 36 kittens at the City of Houston Bureau of Animal Regulation and Care (BARC). I then said we needed to go to Petco to…

Since it has been raining all day I thought I would try something new with the birdcam. I brought the birdcam inside and aimed it towards Coco’s (our African Grey Parrot) cage. This is about a 2 minute video clip, although for all practical purposes there’s not much to look at. However, you can hear…

I bet I’ve got something y’all haven’t seen before! Let me back up and explain. Over the last two weeks, I’ve probably bought 100 bags of mulch, 50 bags of topsoil, and 50 bags of potting soil. Needless to say, my back is getting a workout and I’m not getting any younger. Today, I purchased…
