Sad Stray Kitty Ending

A few weeks ago another stray kitty showed up at my house.

I don't know what it is about my family, but stray kitties seem to be drawn to them.  While my woman and my man where I live won't feed stray kitties, my other woman and my other man who live across the street will sometimes feed strays.

They once fed a stray cat for years who they named Buster.  He never got friendly with them like I did, but he had plenty to eat before he died.

But he did die, and my other woman was sad for a while.

Then this new stray kitty showed up.

As you can tell, even though he was a stray kitty he was very, very, VERY friendly.

My other woman fed him and petted him for a long time and doctored a wound he had on his head.  The next morning he was gone.

The sad part came later.  My woman smelled something bad in her yard, and looking around she found this same stray kitty.  He had found a safe place under some furniture in our yard, and he chose to die there.

He had been there for a day or two, and it was not pleasant to see.  My woman doesn't deal well with icky things, so my other woman came and put him in a plastic bag, then my woman dug him a grave and burred him like a member of the family.

It is sad to see bad things happen to stray animals.  I used to be a stray one time, and I'm glad I don't have to call myself that any more!

I'm all Fixed now

Well, it was done.

5 days ago the Loud Man got me up early and put my harness on, even though I had not even had my food yet.  I always get my food when I first get up in the morning, so I was confused.

But I wasn't too upset, because I like to go on WALKS too, and when I get a harness put on me, it means I'm going for a WALK.  I thought I was going to get a WALK first then FOOD, that was okay.

Except I didn't get a WALK or FOOD.  Instead I got to get in the car for a RIDE.  I like getting in the car, but after a short time RIDES make me nervous.

And this time the RIDE ended at a place that makes me even more nervous.  It ended at the VET.

The Loud Man left me at the VET for a long time. For almost 12 hours I was there.

They put me to sleep, and they cleaned my teeth and they "fixed" me even though I wasn't broken.

And now my people wont leave me alone at all.  They used to each go to the place they spend all day and left me home alone.  Now mommy or the Loud Man is ALWAYS with me.

They won't let me chew where the VET made me "fixed."  They said I might hurt myself, but I just want to scratch it cause it itches!

Also, at night mommy locks Boomer in the bedroom with her and the Loud Man makes me stay with him!  I don't like that.  I ued to spend the first half of the night in bed with Mommy and the second half sleeping with the Loud Man in the living room.  I want it to go back to that way!

Room with a View

What do I see out this window?



Could it be a mailman. Or a squirrel. Or Daddy coming home from work. What, oh what, could it be?



Nope, its just my kitty sister Moe. I wonder what she's creeping around here looking for?

Am I broken?

The Loud Man took me to the V.E.T today.

Last time I went she said I had a lump on my boy parts, and wanted me to come back so she could look at them again.

This time she said my lumps looked bigger, and that another one was growing too! So now they are going to make an appointment to have me "fixed."

I don't think I'm broken just because I have lumps on my boy parts.

Mommy said she has wanted to have me and Boomer "fixed" for a long time, but the Loud Man didn't want it done.

He still doesn't want it done to Boomer, but is letting them do it to me because of my lumps.

Will it hurt to have my boy parts taken away? Will that make me a girl dog?

Our Saturday

Rusty: "Wanna go for another walk?  Or ball!  Yeah, lets play ball!  Wanna go outside and walk and play ball at the same time?  Or eat, is it time to eat yet?"


Boomer: "Zzzzzzzzz." *snort* "Go 'way.  Tryin to sleep here."

International Homeless Animals Day

Hey, did everyone here now that today is International Homeless Animals day?

There are lots and lots and lots of homelss animals out there, living on the street. They are hungry, and cold, and afraid and they don't have any people to take care of them. Sometimes they starve to death, and sometimes they get hit by cars, and it is not a very nice life at all!

I know what it is like to be a homelss animal, because I used to be one. My people found me in a parking lot, and I was skinny and dirty, and covered with fleas and ticks. See, this is what I looked like when they found me:



And this is what I look like now!



Don't I look like a much, much, happier doggie now? I am. I live inside with my nice people, and I get food and love and baths and love and food and more love and did I mention food?

But, if my family had not found me and brought me home I might have died on the streets, or I might have been taken to a shelter. The same thing goes for my kitty sister, Moe:



Did you know that animal shelters are over crowded? They have so many animals that sometimes they are taken and "put to sleep" but sleep doesn't mean sleep, sleep means dead!

So, Moe and myself want to ask you two things.

1. Get your pet spayed or neutered so that no more kitties and doggies will be born accidentally.
2. If you are looking for a new pet, please visit a shelter and find your new friend there, because if you dont they might be "put to sleep".

Get it off me!
