    ZEN: I didn't know it was Ginger day... I would have sent her something!

    Funny, I have trouble thinking of Kelev as a 'pet.' He's more like 'the lord of the house.'


    He likes what I like (which is way cool.) Camping, 4xing, hiking, cooking hotdogs over an open flame while watching the sunset . He's 11 now, and a bit more white than in this year old photo. A neighbor down the street from me found him starving and dehydrated in the gutter when he was about 6 months old, and gave him to me, shortly after my last dog went to heaven. Sharp as a tack but goofy as Goofy, demanding like a Drill Sargent (COOKIE NOW; I WANT COOKIE NOW) and funnier than George Carlin.

    Aww you guys, such adorable pets (and lords of the manor!).

    Jesvetmed, I hope your furbaby gets better soon - she's a keeper!

    TZVIA: Great story about rescuing your buddy! I love a good rescue story!

    Speaking of -- my kitty is showing a lot of improvement! She's biting me and the electrical cords with her "broken" jaw, and showing some interest in eating on her own. It's hopefully a matter of a few days before she's able to stop having the feeding tube... Keep your fingers crossed !!! (and keep them out of her way b/c I think she's teething her new ones in! ).

    Such spirit! Hope Kitty continues to improve and she finds a forever home. And the brute that did this to her rots somewhere. I take it someone forgot to tell Kitty that she's supposed to be feeling bad? Or maybe that she was feeling badly and this is an improvement. Just wait until she's healed! Catnip mice won't stand a chance of survival!

    Oooo love all the pictures. They all melt my heart.

    Jesvet,

    The kitten is so cute. how can anyone think of putting her down. And I hope her left eye recovers. The poor thing has a rough start but sounds like she'll have a wonderful life after this ordeal to make up for it.

    and to the kitty, you're really cute. get well soon.

    Thank you,
    smilingcat

    jesvetmed, tell your kitty that life is JUST FINE with only one eye. The only thing she might have trouble with is driving at night when it's raining (I avoid it, but it can be done). Other than that, it's the ocassional bumping into folks in the grocery store!

    Mtn Darby, Shiloh's ears are a mystery, but he's definitely not Papillon! He's just got interesting ears. Border collies come in so many shapes and sizes, ears, coats, and color combos. Great dogs (although Shiloh's scared of kids).

    Oh my; sounds like she is in a hurry to get rid of the feeding tube! Good good. Sending good vibes her way!

    Luke, wait for me by the big oak tree, in the meadow of wildflowers. We miss you so much but we'll be together again.

    Sundial: I'm so sorry about Luke. That is the most beautiful picture. Those eyes make me want to cry. Ok... I am. How heartbreaking. When you foster your heart is spread in so many directions.

    As for my rescue kitty (AKA "Snorty" -- she snorts like a bulldog due to smashed sinuses ...) well, the feeding tube came out this morning and she is eating like a pig, and trying to beat up my own cat. I'd say she's healing. The left eye is blind, but the cornea is healing and she seems more comfortable every day. What a trooper. I am so impressed what a cat's body can recover from. She's been playful all day.

    TULIP: I'll pass on the advice! I'll have to watch her on the driving!

    Jes - great news about your kitty! Glad to hear she's making a recovery.

    Sundial - ((Hugs)) to you. What a handsome guy Luke is and I'm sure he will be missed.

    I just love looking at all these pets! Makes my day....

    Great news, I'm so glad! Hey, make sure both cats have their claws trimmed right now- you don't want anyone getting scratched in the face while healing!
    She seems like such a sweetie.

    Sundial- what a beautiful expression on Luke's face.
