Kitty Kitty

I don't think I've ever posted about our one and only cat. I very much like this cat, mostly because she doesn't get in the way...most of the time. She meows when you meow at her, drools when you pet her, and is so not a typical cat. She's usually filthy and doesn't do much to correct it. Additionally, she's a barn cat, though sometimes I don't think she's entirely successful. But I think she's at least moderately successful. Even so, it's fewer rats for us to hunt down.

Kitty used to have a normal name. Like...Snowball...but, like so many cats I've noticed now working in a vet hospital, she became Kitty. I think this is because the name of the animal is actually a name. Dog is not a name, Kitty is. Did I ever tell you Honey almost responds better to Puggle than Honey? I work hard to keep her name as is...though occasionally Working Man and I will add in "pot" or "bear". And now I'm off topic...

Pictures!

She only looks mad because Honey is trying to get near her. She really is quite sweet. Just don't pet her while wearing something you don't want to get drool on. Hypersalivation for the world!

Honey Pot...

Some new pictures of my Honey pot...Not the outhouse system of Oregon...my dog. She has gotten so big! Just six months ago this was her:

Oh gosh, I so miss her like this. So unable to jump on anything or to figure out how her bark worked, or her feet for that matter. She was so precious.

Now she's all growed up. (Yes, I know. Not proper grammar, sue me.) She's this monster who can jump up on everything (even straight in the air!) darn that beagle in my pup. She barks at everything, darn that beagle in my pup. She's definitely learned how to use those feet to dig and her nose for smelling, darn that beagle in my pup. Maybe we should have stuck with the pug...on the other hand, I love the beagle in my pup.

She can give me faces like this:

Run too fast for my camera like this:

Pounce on nothing:

Paw at nothing:
026

Run with ears flapping in such a way that I can't get ahead of her to catch it:
029-2

"Look" for something all the while watching my feet to see where I'm going to come at her from next:
034-2

Master the stairs while not looking at them:
036-2

Sit perfectly...but not on command:

Stand regally...but too close for Mommy to get a picture of her whole body:
047-2

I really do love that beagle in my pup. But props to the pug that keeps her from being a beagle. Puggle all the way for my Honey pot. She's a good girl, if not tiring.

Someone give me energy like hers,

Last week's ride and dinner...

Last Sunday, on our ride, this is where we went:

And here's the boys:

Oh Working Man, you do know how to set my heart aflutter.

And here's Uncle G's Pot Pie.

And it was yummy. And we went home in the dark. And despite our wonderful seat, my butt hurt. And I was so glad to get home and sit on it again.
