    Dear Rory,

    Welcome to our family. You're adjusting perfectly and I can't believe you're already friends with Sasha, our dog!

    Yes, they really are a good pair. I am amazed that they are so compatible in such a short time- but then the dog was trained by the two previous cats....

    Awww, such a sweet photo!

    Since I can't have a cat, I have considered getting something like a hamster but somehow that doesn't sound like a good replacement...It isn't like they can roam the apartment, interact with me, nor curl up on my lap and purr. I am sure they probably do interact but not in the same way a cat does.

    Rats make really great pets The shelters are usually loaded with them.They are like tiny little dogs and they have unique personalities and love to play. My 4 boys wrestle with my fingers and just hang on the side of the cage when they hear me come home from work......waiting for a treat. The only downside is that they only live 2-4 years. It's hard when they go cause I do get attached to the little fuzz butts but there are always more in need of rescue!

    No, I know. I think it's sweet too. She REALLY loves her Mommy. It's just funny that I am RIGHT there, petting her, but since I'm not looking at her it means I'm ignoring her.
