Our Pets

Are they smooching?

LOL It's as close as she has ever got.

I still have one of my kitties, she is now 18 years old. She has lost a lot of weight over the last year so i don't really think she will be with us too much longer but I hope I am wrong. She still eats a lot and is still quite active. Our vet knows her situation and we are following everything he tells us to do.

I just like to think how much joy they have given us over the years and I know when that days comes I will be totally heart broken. So for now i cherish every moment that she is with me.

I still remember the pain of losing my favourite cat.

I thought you were married? 

my kitty is now 18 years old but she is still active. The vets said to watch her closely because she doesn't have long to live and that was 6 months ago. She is doing better now and then. I need to take some new pics of her.

Our dog is 12, and her breed tends to do 12 - 14, but she is in extraordinary shape for her age.

Sorry to hear about that Karen, I think I know how you feel.

My niece Elly has a three year old Maya and my niece Ally has a 12 year old Pineapple. Elly works in Santa Monica and Ally is in New York. The dogs stay with their parents.

This past weekend, Elly took Maya to Santa Monica with her, her mother complained how she missed Maya, I give Elly a few weeks, Maya will be back to her mom soon. I was at my other sister's place for dinner on Sunday and found out Pineapple was in the hospital. Ally was constantly on the phone with the vet, they did not let her see Pineapple because of COVID-19, Pineapple has stomach problem and heart problem and might need surgery.  Ally was blaming her mother for not taking care of her dog, she wants to take the dog to NY with her. My sister will not let her, all hell broke loose during dinner....

A few years ago, a friend of my ex gave my son a dog, Tiki. My son knew he could not take care of the dog so he did not take it but whenever he is home in CA, Tiki comes stay with him, I think that's sweet. My stepson just got a dog too, Coco. I think I have enough dogs to hang out with because both of my sisters take the dogs with them everywhere they go.

Cry forever.... I have a much softer spot for animals than I do for humans even lol

Animals, you can predict. Humans, less so.

Animals are honest. Humans?

George... Out yesterday he made a sudden dive into a hedge and grabbed a mouthful of something, 'leave it' didnt work, it was in his mouth and possession is 9/10th of the law according to him. So I had to jam my thumb into his mouth and scoop out the offending article.. Lucky for me it was just half a bread roll someone had discarded.

I told him 'bad boy' and walked on, but as I rounded to corner two little boys aged about 6 or 7 caught me up , Mrs , Mrs? why was you mean to your doggy? said one, and the other added 'we saw you being mean back there'
So I explained I wasnt really being mean but I dont want George to eat things from the floor because, its dirty it could make him sick or worse it might be something thats poison for dogs...

'well' said one of them 'our dog eats cat poo and gets sick and mum says swear words'

I had to stifle a chuckle..
We had a quick chat about things that are very bad for dogs and then parted but I was impressed that two kids of that age were happy to challenge an adult about an animal welfare issue.
