Posted by in dogs We’re starting a day early, but December is going to be dog training month. Gracie and I have had invites to go sit with children reading, and at the last one we were asked to do some tricks, but we haven’t kept up on that much. We did what we could, but we can do…Read more »
Posted by in cats Once a year the foster organization I volunteer with participates in a one-day fundraising event, the ExtraGive. It is an important fund raiser for us, and helps us cover more than $100K in medical bills each year. This has been a very tough year for all rescues and foster organizations. The pandemic closed spay/neuter clinics…Read more »

We had a nice hike on a sand trail. Walking on sand takes a good bit more energy than walking on dirt, so I…Read more »
Posted by in cats We are headed out for a short vacation this morning, and as so often happens, all craziness erupted to try to keep us home. (But we are going!) Molly, our momma kitty, was not at all well yesterday. Not eating, vomiting, totally lethargic, not willing to nurse the kittens or engage them at all. She’s…Read more »

Luckily I had put up my plexiglass enclosure already, sensing that they were about to spring themselves, so they toddled about quite safely. Maggie is nearing four weeks old, and is reasonably sure on her feet.…Read more »
