Otto Is M.I.A.

*******Please Subscribe To My Blog…..It Really Helps******* I just don’t know where we stand right now….. Last night Otto came into the garage for the night…and he wasn’t looking good…..

*The Last Fire*

**********Please Subscribe To My Blog…..It Really Helps********** We’ve had a teensy little (cool-ish) cold snap….. I’m sad to say…this might just be the last opportunity for a fire in our fireplace…until next Fall….. …..Oh…Nooooooo…..

**********Please Subscribe To My Blog…..It Really Helps********** At the risk of still writing a post about the Holidays…after the Holidays….. I wanted to share an oddity about one of our cats….. ~~~~~Prosecco~~~~~ Prosecco is a sweet cat…she got her name because she’s a champagne color…but…she’s really odd…..

My younger daughter has her Papillon (Danny) with her on her bed…who stands guard…and refuses any cats entry into their bedroom…..

Mine is the only duvet they have access to…mine…

What?…Prosecco’s Deaf?

**********Please Subscribe To My Blog…..It Really Helps********** We think Prosecco…(our kitty-kat-um’s)…is deaf….. …..(actually my older daughter figured it out)….. Sometimes…we’re less than attentive to the obvious….. Sometimes the obvious…is totally missed on us….. We’ve had Prosecco for…(I don’t know)…five or six years….. We thought she was wayward…uninvolved…and aloof…(you know…a cat)….. …..maybe that’s all there is to it…and this is just a big ruse….. But on closer examination…I don’t think so….. We may have dropped the ball on this one….. There…
