    Cats Tasha

    They all become a part of us....losing one of them is like losing a little piece of ourselves. I'm sorry for your loss, Tony.

    There's a small cute little winebar in our "downtown". They are closed because of the pandemic, but someone still freshens up the dog water bowl every day. Ruby was thirsty from our first warm weather walk. The latin is translated here as "In wine there is truth, In water there is health".

    The Pioneer IS vintage....the Yamaha just looks it (it is the modern A-S2000....a purchase I made because I found a great deal on a used one). The turntable is an Immedia RPM-2 deck with a Graham Engineering tonearm with a Lyra Delos cartridge (a combo I could have NEVER afforded if I hadn't...

    Just a quick snap before our morning walk....you can see bits of green popping out on the bushes in our front window. While we do have some snow in forecast in a couple days, I quickly got overheated on our walk in my sweatshirt. Ruby was panting pretty good, too.

    We call that position "Superdog" at our house (I mainly do that because my wife who is 10 years my juior probably has never the cartoon Underdog). And I don;t think he ever used that pose......I just picture Superman....and he's kind of the dog version of that Charlie used to that when he was...

    Animals Back in the aquarium game.

    Nice Bill! I've kept aquariums on and off for most of my life. Although not in the last 4 years. I had a very strong bond with a Black Moor that lived 6 years. He would wiggle like crazy when I approached the glass and I hand fed him on occasion. It was heartbreaking when he died.

    My wife is learning to "work from home", but Charlie still wants to snuggle. Her working from home is also turning into "less video game time for Luke". :wtf: Which is probably a good thing. I shuttered the record shop on Monday. I really need to try to ramp up online sales, but I fear there...

    Thanks for checking, Kevin. He is seeming pretty stable. We are now allowing him to hop up the single step into the house instead of lifting him up. And he's feeling confident enough that sometimes he eyeballs the couch and prepares to launch himself, but we do not allow him that leap....that's...

    Charlie is 4 weeks past a knee surgery. Trying to keep a dog from running AND jumping is a lot of work. He gets sedatives pretty regularly, but he still gets fired up when Ruby barks or someone comes to the door. So we have a play pen set up for him in the living room. It gives him some room to...

    I'll stop being mean when he does. He bites people and he sneak attacks the dog. And it also seems like he will live forever.

    I thought you might be exaggerating there Les....the Wolves at our zoo are more like big dogs, but I see some of them of them do get quite huge. I see the weight listed for adult males ranges from 55lbs - 170 lbs.....that's a pretty crazy range!
