    Cats? Sleep in? My experience with the kitties runs more along these lines:

    Poor Mole

    I don't know much about moles so I'll reserve judgment on whether that was a good thing or not but it's what terriers do.

    Maggie doing what she does best...


    We took the girls with us last weekend in my parent's RV. Too bad we wanted to sleep, they thought the bed was theirs:

    And because she is too sweet for words, their buddy Athena. My parent's gorgeous and sweet as can be Rottie. She totally lets little 8 lb Heidi be the alpha dog, it is pretty funny.

    The beak looks silver. I've not seen a silky before--that's very interesting. Do you have several other interesting birds?

    Aggie, Athena's eyes are so gentle.

    Moles are pretty much blind and easy to catch, and harmless...except when you step in their holes and twist an ankle. I don't worry about that too much, though, because my dog Lucy leaves much bigger holes!

    You haven't LIVED until you wake up to the cat bringing in a live mole at 3 a.m., it bleeding all over the carpet, and running and squealing under your bed!

    eta: I was fascinated when I followed Lucy out to her mole hunt, and I leaned down close to the ground and could hear the little mole tearing through the grass roots just under the surface. It is quite a curious thing to see her listening to the mole, and literally watching the dirt bump up above it, just like in cartoons!

    I'm always sad when one is killed, but I have a huge yard and plenty of room for them and me.

    My mom saw her in the paper from the local kill shelter and went to scoop her up! She may be one of the sweetest dogs I have ever met with no real training from my parents, just her personality.

    Equus- Is the silky is a chicken? It is making me laugh, those guys would bring a smile to my face to have!

    Yup, pure silkies have black/cinder beaks, and 5 toes.They don't have "feathers" (obviously). I'm fixated on fancy and weird chickens - will post pics later.
