• So here's the latest adventure. This summer some kitties were born in our neighborhood. They are basically feral cats who took up residence in a storm drain. I got really mad when some neighbors decided to start putting food in the drain for them- that's not responsible. Anyways, one of them has fallen in love with my dogs. It's so crazy. Miles couldn't care less about cats, but Lexi wants to chase them. In fact, one of her magic words is "kitty cat". But this one outstanding kitty just adores them. And when Lexi comes running and swats him on the head, all he does is rub on her and purr. It's too funny. Lexi's left standing there totally confused. The kitty, whom we've named Oscar, lives outside and I think someone feeds him. But as soon as he hears the kids' collars jingling, he comes RUNNING. And he rubs on them and purrs. He walks between the dogs as we go for our walk- as if he were on a leash too. He plays with their leashes and even comes back up the stairs with us. Over the last month, we've convinced him (okay, more like built the trust necessary) to get him inside the house. We have an uncle who adores cats and is going to adopt him (hopefully). So we can get him vet care and neutered. But in the meanwhile, he is so cute!!


  • An early video of Oscar


  • Awww….your dogs are sooooo awesome. Look at that family harmony with a feral! cat 🙂 Are you sure he doesn't want to stay with you? It looks like he might 🙂


  • Oh, Oscar's totally claimed us. He reminds me of the kitty in Shrek- the one with the big eyes. He used to sit on our doorstep and hubby would shut the door in his face. I couldn't stand it. But slowly, Oscar has won him over. Hubby used to say, "Don't ever feed him from the doorstep and don't ever let him in here!" And now I catch him urging Oscar to come in and I even caught him feeding him cheese!! 🙂 hehehehe… He's irresistible! I would LOVE to keep him myself but we're a little cramped at the moment. I just worry that if we give him to the Uncle, he won't have the exposure to dogs that he obviously loves.


  • PLUS- the walks are SOOOO much better when we have Oscar to look forward to… I mean, who loves going out when it's in the 20s ever morning?! Ugh!!


  • Here's a better pic of his face 🙂


  • Oscar is so sweet and I can't get over how good your pups are with him!


  • Sorry for the eyes- Hubby had the camera set to devil eye photos…ha!

    I love Miles's face in this picture…lol

    Lexi Poo Poo is so sweet. She loves Oscar.

    All nice and warm…


  • Ahh Oscar is adorable, I think you should keep him, they all seem to love each other very much. How great it is that Oscar just adopted your dogs and you.


  • A little late, but here's our Thanksgiving pic! 🙂


  • I hope Hubby changes his mind. You all make a beautiful family.


  • What a cute kitty…and a great addition to your family. Let us know what happens. More pictures are always great too!


  • Oh Bdawg…I'm sure the kitty will make a wonderful addition to your loving family 🙂 And I LOVE their Thanksgiving collars....you're an AWESOME mom 🙂 I have to send you a pic of our Xmas collars 😃


  • Aww!! 🙂 🙂 🙂 Thanks!! I suppose they'll be sporting the Christmas ones this month… but then what?!


  • You know…Valentines Day, Easter, 4th of July...:D 😃 😃


  • I DID just make two Valentine's Day collars!! 😉 Hmm… this calls for a pic!!


  • LOL, now for some reason, that does not surprise me at all. 😉

    I forgot New Years in the list, you must have some for that? Something with Swarovski crystals perhaps? 😃 😃


  • I know, I know… I'm working on getting something fancy together. But for now, they don't have anything special for new years. I really wanted to get Ham a James Bond collar. And I found this snazzy one for Lexi. They would be the most smashing couple if I got these!!

    Ham…as... Double OH Seven!!

    And Poo Poo as… Sexxy Lexi.

    Okay… Now here are the collars they really have... because I made them! 🙂



  • Wow those are very nice collars, they look smashing


  • They both look so cute in their valentines collars!!!!! 😃

    I love the New Year's collars as well…
