We have 3 kittens in the house (I go from a friend) I have a stray living on my enclosed front porch that has 3 babies then my two outside cats that arrived as strays. One is a wild cat that took my 3 days to trap so he could go to the vet to be neutered. The kittens will go when they get older and the momma cat as soon as she's done feeding the new babies. But the newer bbies will probably go to new homes. I think 9 might get me divorced or broke with all the spay/neuters that need done.

Hi Nilda, I had a visit from a woman last year when I was in a skilled nursing facility post-op. She brought in a Chinese Crested and put him up on the bed with me. I petted and played with him for a while and then she said "Let's see if I can wind him up". She took him, set him down on the floor and took hold of his tail. Then she turned her hand around as if his tail were the crank on a very old car. When she let go of him, he started spinning in a circle. I laughed so hard. I was really needing a pick-me-up at that time and she and her little dog provided it. I have 2 ****er Spaniels. It's a dog I always wanted when I was little and never had. When my ex-husband and I split up, I got a house so I could have dogs and went out and got Casey. She's a buff and white female. About 2 weeks later I got Bandit, who is a black male. I've never had any human kids, so these two are my babies. They're both 11 years old and starting to slow down a bit, since both have some arthritis. However, they still love to chase the squirrels in my back yard. I think my male still thinks he'll catch one some day, although he wouldn't have a clue what to do with one if he did catch it.

Did you get one yet? lol

Hi my name is Patti Liszewski and I live in MI. I have just begun my journey. I have had my internist appt. blood work and psych eval done. I am waiting to meet with my surgeon. (7-28) I have two dogs..a nine year old female Springer Spanial (my baby) and a 1 1/2 yr old male Jack Russill. I love my dogs and they are a huge part of my life.

We have a wonderful Rottweiler named Knuckles who is 16 months old and weighs about 100lbs. He has given me reason to get out and walk at least an hour every day no matter what the weather! He loves children (no, not to eat!) and is as gentle and friendly as any dog you have ever seen. He is a nut - especially when he runs around the back yard with a tire around his neck and a pickle bucket on his head! My other dog is "the boss" - Piper weighs 4 lb.13 oz and he is a Yorkshire "terrorist". He keeps the Rottie in line, as well as protecting my room from the evil cats who may desire to sleep upon the master's bed! So, let's hear about your pets!
