The Zoo

I wanted to introduce my zoo. I have two short haired cats - Rascal and Shadow. I got the boys when they were just little fluff balls - I had just split up with the ex and could have a cat again. I made the mistake of taking Katie with me to pick out a kitten. I had picked out the runt of the litter - a pure black puff of fur when Katie fell in love with a little grey and white fluffball who climbed up her leg (claw over claw lol). Sooooo being the sucker that I am , I took both kittens and I'm glad I did now since they keep each other such good company. They are both big sucks and follow me all over the house, more particularly to the bathroom lol. BT says there is a parade going up the stairs after me whenever I go for a pee.

For my birthday BT took me to the Humane Society and that was where we found Toto, my little girl. She is a little black terrier cross - god only knows what the cross is but she has perky little ears and has decided beyond a doubt that I am HER person. She is such a good girl and has never had an accident in the house, hell in the beginning she wouldn't even "go" in the yard unless she had her leash on. The Humane society was wrong about how old she is, they said 5 to 7 and when I took her to the vet they said more like 8 or 9. The shelter said that she had been on the streets for a while when they got her and that she had probably been dumped because sh was sick. Ah well someone else's lose, my gain.

Toto has no use for the cats until they climb on my lap for some luvin and then she gets jealous. The cats on the other hand rub up against her and I even caught Shadow trying to clean her ears for her lol. She'll only put up with them next to her for a little while, grumbling all the while, before she'll get up and move and if ,gods forbid, I'm rubbing a pussy cat belly , she has to get right in between us and stop that belly rubbin lol.

So that's my zoo.
