Awe...thanks for posting the lovely picture of Emma. And yes...although we only had Rusty for four years....he brought us a lot of joy!

Hope to see a picture of "crazy" Callie!

I don’t really know. My mother took in his Momma when she was very pregnant. She had 5 kittens and this one picked me. He would follow me around and cry when I gave him back to his Mother. He’s now 7 and he is still my kitty. Hubby is only allowed to touch or look at him in bed, where booboo lays down between his legs to sleep. If hubby moves, he’s severely punished, lol. We have only ever had strays. They need the love the most, and they make the very best friends a family could ever have.

I don't think Mr. OBAMA is going to come around. LOL

Well, you can't blame Miss Keeley for TRYING! After all, that food is GOOD!

Mine keep insisting to me that daddy hasn't fed them yet, or vice versa -- little liars.

[freekitty]

She’s gorgeous.

[dutchess]

Thanks for posting the challenge in honor of Rusty. It’s been fun looking at all the great pets.

Your welcome...and yes it's fun looking at our beloved pets! I don't know who's luckier...them or us :o)

LOL! Shelley’s first obedience trainer had that sign on her fence - with a pic of a Doberman! She had Dobes, and Rottys, and Boxers, and a huge Newfoundland named Kansas. When Shelley was a puppy, she boarded with her and was naughty and pestered the other dogs. When the other dogs got mad at her, she would run under Kansas’s belly and hide in her fur.

Shelley and Miss Ruby are LOVELY!

[litehaus]

Miss Ruby would have been of great interest to Ol’ BoBo...who has gone to the Big Duck Blind in the sky....

[dutchess]

Callie is so pretty. Love those eyes. Troublemaker huh??? You’d never know.

[freekitty]

I am laughing so hard tears are running down my face. I can just see her. I am glad to hear we aren’t the only ones. The first year; all Rosey did was look for us. We have pictures of her while in the show ring with her head turned around searching.

Oh, and I recognize Ruby. That’s Rosey Toes. Here I am. Look at me. LOL

[AnAmericanMother]

We took Miss Ruby back to her trainer's today - she's definitely out of season, but the trainer's Big Dog, Zeke, is convinced that any female who comes on the place has been brought to visit HIM. So he came prancing and preening up to her, showing off, and nuzzled her in what I suppose was a leering manner. So she gave him the full muzzle snarl - no noise, just the entire upper lip and muzzle wrinkled up to show all her teeth . . . he was disappointed but it will probably take a few more snarls for him to completely get the message.

God rest Ol' BoBo and I hope Lab Heaven has lots of nice fat slow-flying ducks and a couple of young lady Labs to admire him . . . .

This is a really nice thing you are doing dutchess. They are great friends. We had another kitty. He was a stray I picked up in Hawaii. He was mother and father to booboo. We lost Scooter just a few months ago. Booboo is still calling for him. We also have weiner dog named Redbone that my father left me when he passed away almost two years ago. It was the only thing that Dad left in writing, lol. He loved that dog.

[freekitty]

The little devil. LOL What a smart girl she is.

[AnAmericanMother]

Thank you! We love our Labs and they are spoilt princesses who are waited on hand and foot (or, as my husband says, "paw and paw".)

But they play fair -- when it's time for ducks, they are all business!

[freekitty]

Oh, I know those kitties. I have Mr. Murphy who is loves to snuggle; but only when and if he deems you are good enough to snuggle with.

I have had so many rescues, I have lost count and still do. I also donate to a couple of rescue places that are near and dear to my heart. You are right. They are the best.

[AnAmericanMother]

Poor booboo! Maybe another kitty will show up, not to take Scooter's place, but to keep booboo company!

Our last Siamese is feeling rather lonely right now, she lost her two older buddies, Finny and Trina.

So now it's any old port in a storm, even a Lab --
