Bonding

Jet won his grandparents over in about 2 seconds. As you can see, everyone got along swimmingly!

First Casualty

Well we knew it would happen. Jet would get into something that we didn't want him to. He doesn't chew on furniture, he hasn't tried to 'mark' inside, but he did decide that Pound Kitty should be his.

For those of you who don't know, Pound Kitty is Percy's toy. Percy picked this toy out of a pile of stuffed animals in my room the first day I brought him home. He has carried it around ever since (10 plus years now). Pound Kitty rode with him on the plane to San Diego, and back. Pound Kitty was banished to the closet after Percy was accidentally shut in there for 2 days. Pound Kitty is Percy's best friend.

Here is the result of Jet playing with Pound Kitty. Percy is pissed off.

Percy's Post

If Percy could talk, this is exactly what he'd be saying right about now. While he is adjusting sort of to the new dog, he would still very much like it if he just fell in a hole and died. Poor P-man.

Oh Man! My Dog Wears Clothes....

Yep that's right. We got a short haired dog that shivers like crazy when out walking this time of year. So yep, he wears sweaters. At least we got him a trendy NW fleece rather than a puffy rapper coat (truly, those were the two choices we had). His clothes cost more than mine!



But damn, he's so cute!

Accidents

Well the new dog hasn't had any accidents in the house yet, but I did step right into cat puke when I got up this morning.......

JET!

This picture was taken minutes ago. I'm sitting on the couch flanked by the sweetest snoring Boston Terrier ever. Jet has joined our family!



The kitties don't know what to think of him quite yet. Ares is very curious. Percy, as usual, is pretty pissed off.

I'm still in shock. I can't believe we have a dog.

Change of Plans

Yesterday I was chatting with Chris before he left for work. He was asking what I had planned for the day. I told him I was thinking of taking a long walk, going to a movie, and finishing my book. So, what did I actually do? I painted the bathroom.

Would someone please take away my paint brushes. Please.

Today we pick up Jet! The kitties have no idea what they are in for. I'm pretty sure Chris and I don't fully know what we're in for. Zoinks!

This Is Going To Be Interesting

So when I posted last I was totally kidding about how the cats were going to react to the new dog we'll be bringing home on Friday (!!). But look what I found in the new dog bed:

Whose House Is It Anyways?

We're thinking about getting a dog. Actually we're driving to Ferndale (which is apparently north of Bellingham) today to meet one. This is exactly how I envision the cat's reacting to a dog in the house:

Kiki Supermarket

While riding the cable car in San Francisco we passed my supermarket. Apparently I carry Gourmet Coffee Muffins and Donuts.
