    My Birthday Presents - sort of

    Thom and I got up Saturday morning and decided the house was just too darn empty.

    We decided now was the best time to get a dog. We'd have time to bond before we both went back to work in January. We had decided that when we got our next dog we would also get kittens so they would grow up getting along.


    Well... we got the kittens.



    Tucker and Cassie

    We have been without a dog for four years. Our lifestyle has changed a lot in that time. We do much more traveling and we spend more time away from home during the weekends, riding. We decided a dog would just be too much responsibility right now.

    We both still really miss Tilda. These two are working their way into our hearts though.



    There are a few more pictures of them on our website.

    Cutie pies!

    Our semi-feral cat just brought home a mouse and ate the whole thing but the head in front of Em, who still has a bit of PTSD. Just think what you have to look forward to!!!

    Happy early birthday!

    Our new kitties are indoor only. The ferals outside are outside only. Although I have watched a feral play with a mouse.

    No, they came into the shelter together though. I think Cassie is a little bit older than Tucker. He's still very gawky and dweeby in a little kitty way.

    Oooh... This makes me all nostalgic.

    I've always had cats in my life, but my husband is allergic. Really allergic. He keeps saying that we could always try a hypoallergenic cat, but I find that the risk is too high that it's not going to work, and I'd rather not put a cat in a position where it's "not working" and we have to give it away.

    So I must find a place to live with neighbors who have cats!

    Can I move next to your place, V?

    *sigh*
