I actually mix up his wet food with a tablespoon or so of water and mush it up like a puree; he gets more fluids that way.

I do the same thing always with my two kitties. 3 tablespoons of canned food mashed up with a tablespoon of water. Always a good move to keep their fluids up.

Speaking of which, my Pearl is going through some difficult kidney issues right now (she almost died of it when she was 5, and now she's 10). We are back to giving subcutaneous water shots to her every day to try to flush out the toxins.

I so hope Ruthie gets better quickly! She's so special.

My family has 2 black standard poodles. They are brother and sister, and we really only own the girl *Nora*. The boy *Horatio* was bought by our neighbors, but he was too much for them to handle at the time (a poodle puppy, and a baby and a move..just too much ) so they gave him to us until they want him back. I don't think that will happen anytime soon, if at all
They love water (especially Horatio) you can see him swimming away in the first pic, with his sis getting all frustrated and confused with the concept of water. (they do hate baths, though)
You can see them running through the buckwheat growing on the empty lots behind our house. That is a good way to release some of their excess energy. That is my handsome boy, freshly shorn, in front of the book shelf.. I don't have a close-up picture of his sis right now.....but she is quite cute - very dainty.

This is the little cat I took in in August. He's going by the name "Ghost" now because he just sort of appears wherever I am (also known as Stealth Kitty, Braticus or Brat Cat 2.0)



(You didn't really want this to be upright, did you?)

Here are Hunter (aka Widget or Brat Cat 1.0) & Chloe in their usual bed-hogging positions.



(Wait, you mean you wanted to sleep here too?)

as you may remember, just after we moved to our new house our little corgie Sadie got poisoned. Yesterday we went to the corgie rescue and picked up a new member of our family. Her name is Rowena and she is almost two years old and fully grown although she is very small and weighs in at less than 14 pounds. She is still a bit stressed by the move, meeting and getting used to a new dog (my FIL's Llapso Apso) and two cats, one of whom outweighs her, but is starting to settle in a bit.

Wasn't that Ramona? Or Romeena? I wish I could type the whistle.

all four of animals are rescue animals, wouldn't have it any other way.

Her real name was Ramona but Ernest T. called her Rowena and maybe even Romena.
