If only you could bottle puppy breath!
I love the way the mama looks at them...so devoted. A beautiful thing!
Oh my goodness! Look at all those little piglet babies and mommie is making sure everyone is cleaned and fed. :)Quote:

Don't make me cry.
Roadtrip, what a soulful face Teddy has in that picture. Sorry for your loss.Quote:

Got rescued, again, by another three legged Shar Pei. His name is Beau and he has changed our home to ULTRA HAPPY! :) He is such a lovable guy. Always is smiling and Bailey loves him already too.
Lost my companion last week. She would have been 18 next month. Diabetes, hyperthyroidism, chronic cystitis, summer allergies... but the biggest joy in my life for the last 6 years.
Such a huge void.

(((((Rebecca)))))
She'll be welcome in that special TE place at the Rainbow Bridge - where there's warm sunshine, gentle breezes, and lizards to chase
Your doggies are just precious. I think three-legged dogs are cool; they always look to be full of joy and not a bit worried about getting along with less than a full set. Thanks for being a great doggie mom! :pQuote:

Oh I nearly forgot their trusty guardians.:D
So sorry about your recent loss Rebecca. She looks like she was a happy, well-loved tabby cat and I am sure that you gave her a wonderful life.
{{{{Rebecca}}}} What a beautiful, intent, and content kittie. She was well cared for and lived well.
Thanks everyone. She was a lovely kitty and I'm missing her so much.
But it's doing me good, seeing everybody else's fuzzy 'children'... so keep 'em coming! :)
Piper Kitty October 2008 R.I.P. We miss you!!!

first picture - sadie the corgie who died last month of unexplained poisoning helping me train
Cappy, the geriatric cat (larger brown cat on left) and miss ike (rescued from a parking garage just after hurricane ike). I had to have Cappy put down two weeks ago.I thought the pain of the loss of two of them within a week of each other was getting better. But then I picked up Cappy's ashes. I guess I was wrong.
Tux, the black and white maine coone in my signature and Miss ike are doing their best to make me feel better.
I still miss Sadie and cappy deeply.

I know. This is so hard. Glad you have your other fuzzy children to keep you company and maybe distract you with their own little ways.
I thought I was feeling better (longer periods not thinking about her, stronger lid on the impulse to cry). Then this last Thursday, I got the final vet bill in the mail - which is what I'd asked them to do, as I couldn't face going in to pick it up in person. It wasn't the figures that destroyed me all over again... it was seeing two full pages, line by line, of everything they did for her to try to get her kidneys 'kickstarted' to some sort of level where she could go home (with meds).
And then the last 2 lines: Euthanasia. Cremation. I lost it.
Was a sobbing quivering wreck again for 2 days.
Yesterday, I spent the afternoon test riding road bikes and talking bike stuff with the cool ladies at my LBS. Three whole hours not thinking of Maddie, plus the 45-minute ride each way to and from the bike shop put me in a kind of zen zone. Feel a bit stronger today.
So sorry to be unloading a bit more grief here - especially sorry Marni if I've added to your pain. I live alone and do try not to burden people with my problems... and I knew, looking ahead to the inevitable, that losing Maddie "one day" would be very hard... but I've been completely taken by surprise by how devastated I am. :(
Your chickies remind me of a story. I had a student on my school bus that was very difficult. One day I pulled up to his farmhouse, and he was sitting on a big rock, and it looked like he was petting a smaller rock on top of the big one. As I got closer I could see that it was not a rock, but a chicken. When I commented on it the boy said "oh-that's my NICE chicken" I will never forget that. Brings a smile to my face!Quote:

I must say, since visiting the spca last week, I've found more love for my kitties, they are both so special.
And Marni, I'm really sorry for your pain. It's really only been a few weeks since your friends crossed the rainbow bridge. I still cry about my dog who died 2 years ago in October.
I'm going to go hug my dogs now.
My current pack:
Brat Cat 2.0 (Stealth Shadow) in his basket with a giant stuffed mouse

glad to see Brat Cat 2.0 is feeling at home! He sure knew which sucker, ahem, person to pick!! :D
A colleague commented that I must have "SAP" written on my forehead in Kitty-speak. :rolleyes: :DQuote:

That giant mouse is every cats dream!
Well, I know there was a lot of talk recently about adopting black cats cause they don't photograph well, etc. Well, that is true, but you all wanted to see my new kitty, Jag and here he is.
I did not adopt him, he adopted me. He is a perfect sweety!
I tried to attach his picture which was a jpeg when it was in the email, but which for what reason was changed to an mht?? when i downloaded it onto my pictures in my computer. Shoot, I'm going to have to find out how to fis that
He really is beginning to make himself right at home!
Puppies week 3 and 4. The week 4 photos are their first non-mamma provided meal.

an example - she still doesn't have a name. All of the other puppies from the litter have been named, but not mine. (Alexander (Alex), Cleopatra (Cleo), Hatshepsut (Callie), and Nefertari (??))

yay for black kitty, and aww for brand new puppy!
and Rebecca, I'm so sorry for your loss. I only just read your post (this thread is way too big now!) I hope time is starting to curb your pain somewhat.
Update on Boo, for those who remember my mental anguish last week:
I went and visited him, and he's much more comfortable now. He's SOO playful, and he's such an athlete. Played with him for about 30 minutes with the Cat Dancer, and I sat down next to him. He let me pet him, and wait, he let me pick him up and put him on my lap! Now that's the cat I saw at the shelter - I'm really glad he didn't prove me wrong :)
Hopefully pics to come, forgot my camera today.
So happy to hear Boo is settling in and allowing his true personality to come through.
Love the picture of the black cat. I have a soft spot for black dogs & cats. Most of the pets I had growing up were black.
He really likes to snuggle up against it when he sleeps. He likes to bat the tail around if it's hanging out of the basket. :DQuote:

Love seeing the pictures of everyone's pets. I think we have a great TE pack going here. :D
Thanks for sharing your chicken story it has made me smile too. I never thought I would actually get as much enjoyment out of the chickens as I do. I thought they would be good for eggs and free bug control and that would be it but they really have quite a bit of personality and their antics with my dogs makes me smile. :)Quote:
