It's those girls from the Chicken Coop

Callie and Allie.





Remember them from a few weeks ago? Their first photo a few weeks ago.
I didn't realize how much they have grown, until I look back at their first photo.
They were in today for their second kitten vaccination.

Scraggs vs. 'Scilla

These two are in the cat room at the moment- Cat Room Cage Match 2009.

poor 'scilla can't get her legs to work quite right to scamper up under the cages as fast as Scraggs. She just waits for him to come back out. . .

Newt, Scraggs, and some Talented Sheep

Here's Newt. Sorry this is a tad blurry. 6 week old Lab in for his puppy vaccination.



Then we have more Scraggley photos from yesterday.




Chillin' with the neighbors.



Just realized that someone lives in the apartment below.


"How YOU Doin'?", said in his best Joey from Friends voice.



Priscilla checks out that "suspicious foot" hanging from the penthouse above, just seconds before it comes flying by. Fast towards the floor.




and lastly, the best video I think I have seen in awhile. It's worth sharing so I am passing it along. I hadn't seen it before, maybe you haven't either.

I might soon have enough cats to attempt this myself . . . . *sigh*. The dogcatcher stopped by yesterday and he has 5-6 kittens looking for homes, for several weeks, so it looks like I stuck with Scraggs for awhile. *sigh again*

Enjoy the Sheep.

I'd bet my Sister-In-Law wished my nephews cleaned up this well. . . .

Anyone want Scraggly?

You can even change his name to Scruffy, Scrawney, or Stringbean (skinny like a stringbean).

I went outside a few minutes ago, to put something in my truck, and heard "meow, meow" in a sort of squeaky tone. And thought, "Lovely". I found Goober here hiding over by the air conditioner unit. While there are a few wild cats around that no one can catch, this guy isn't afraid of anyone.



I put flea stuff on him for the ear mites and fleas. I will probably bathe him tomorrow so he'll be looking a little more presentable. Not sure what to do with him. I'll probably call the pound tomorrow, and see if they can take him. I can post his pic on petfinder in the mean time.

He's solid white, except for a gray tail. Sort of an unusual color pattern.

You can hear him purring in the video.

A donate painting to help fight Cancer

I have donated my Calla Lilies on Blue painting to a fundraiser that starts tomorrow. All of the proceeds go to an artist fighting breast cancer to pay for chemotherapy. The sale starts tomorrow at 10 am central time and runs for 5 days. Items start at $100 and drop a little each day. Down to $50.

Buster- Parvo Puppy

This is Buster. He came in on Thursday with Parvo, and stayed until yesterday.

12-14 weeks old, Lab Puppy.


I shot these photos on Saturday. And while he looks a bit depressed in the photos, he was beginning to feel better, and went home yesterday.


I am also having problems with my digital camera focusing on the subject. Not sure if it's a setting is off or what is wrong with it.

It focused fine when I hand held it to take this macro shot.



That isn't poop, btw. (I know that's what you were thinking.) It's a soft chewy lean treat that I was hiding the tamiflu in. Tamiflu apparently is terribly bitter tasting. So I've gotten creative trying to hide it.


This short video of Buster was shot with the same camera, so not sure what its problem is.
I am going to be sad if it conks out on me.






PS. Get those puppies vaccinated ASAP!

It's A Bonanza at Bonanzle!!!

That's Right! Tomorrow. 11 AM PST. Be there or be rectangle.

I was adding some of the new items to Bonanzle. And they have a feature that lets you have a sale. It's called a Bonanza. So I want to try it out to see how it works. 15% off for 2 hours.

I haven't got the shipping straight yet, the combined shipping, but I'll probably combine shipping manually and issue a refund through paypal or google checkout for the difference.

Don't worry if you miss it, I am sure I'll do another in the future.



So, if you had your eyes *points 2 fingers to my eyes, then to the monitor, eyes, monitor* on those new little cases, or the new cards, check it out at 11 am PST.

Bonanzle Booth

My New Cards, sort of. . . .

I have printed a few greeting cards in the past. Paper. Plain, same old card that everyone else has as well.

Well, back in January, Leanin' Tree came out with a line of seeded greeting cards that can be planted. There is a card on the inside, and the outer card jacket is made of handmade seeded paper. So one can plant them.

I wanted some for the office. But they had little to no animal art. and what animal art is offered is wrong for me. Too cheesy, too cutesy, too whimsical, too generic.

So I am printing my own inserts. And they look really nice.

There are 5 different seed mixes- cottage garden mix, sunny garden mix, cutting garden mix, heaven scent, and wildflower mix. Each is carefully blended with annuals and perennials, so something is guaranteed to grow in all regions. If you have ever purchased wildflower seeds, you know that you select the mix based on what area of the country you live in.

I only have resized 3 designs so far, and will be working on a few others. What do think of the idea of being able to plant a card? Or save the inside card, and plant the seeded jacket?

Meet Callie and Allie

These 2 little ladies were found inside a chicken coop last week. No sign of Mom.
But she might have left to join the circus as to get these two inside the chicken coop she would have had to climb to the roof, walk across a little bar, squeeze through a little hole in the wire, and down inside the coop.

It sounds as if her middle name might be Wallenda, or Houdini, so she has a bigger calling in life. So off to the circus she went.

They were weak, hungry, covered in fleas. So the chick coop owner took them in, and started feeding them kitten formula after getting rid of the fleas. That was a week ago, and they are boarding this week while the owner is on vacation.



Allie, the grey one, resembled Yoda a lot after she got sprayed for the fleas.
