This week we opened our hearts and our home to a taffy colored male kitten we named Scout. He was part of a litter from a feral mama fostered by a woman here in Lansing. She watched over them, handled them and got them adoptable, and at the age of 8 weeks we picked oneContinueContinue reading “Scout”

Checking in at 39
This past week I turned 39. This year will mark 9 years of marriage for me, 5 years of home ownership, 12 years with my current employer and 11 years with my cat Bethesda. She is my first cat that chose me – and that I adopted on my own. I walked into the animalContinueContinue reading “Checking in at 39”
Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek
Candy brought a brown mouse in from the garage in her big yapper the other day and set it down so she could pounce and play.

Believe it or not, blogging was not the first thing that occurred to me when I went into the family room this morning and found the 13X30 space tracked from one end to the other with black cat paw prints. This means you’re not getting the “full effect” photos. The picture below is after myContinueContinue reading “I Don’t Plan to Laugh About This, Like, Ever”
Cotton Candy
Candy hops up in my lap for a little lap time of cuddling and petting. She takes to licking me, then settles down for her pets, then a little bath for herself, leaning her head over every few minutes to lick my fingers. “Ah!” I think, “She’s such a sweet, loving girl. Look how attachedContinueContinue reading “Cotton Candy”
