The plan was not to have multiple little dogs on my lap all the time. Bearnard was supposed to be on the couch with V. But now Noel has taken Charles’s spot on the couch, and Mr. “I don’t want to be left out of anything,” is always trying to hog my lap (to Jolie’s dismay).
A CAT ONLY moment.
It really is crazy when Mini Cooper joins in and Noel scratches for attention from the side of the recliner.
This is why I always say you should not have more pets than you have hands. And even though we have 4 hands in this house, they all want my 2 at the same time.
They are definitely, a HAND-FULL.

I was absolutely amazed when Noel came up on the couch and started to lick Jolie’s ears. And Jolie just let her. I am really thankful for a wonderful zoo of animals. Jolie pretty much is the most chill dog we have ever had. And, Noel is doing great for 16-1/2. She rules the roost, fur sure.

It is with great sadness that I tell you about the loss of our grandcat, Hazel, on August 28. She was such a sweetheart. K8 adopted Hazel 3 years ago when she was about 4 years old. She loved to sit in the window and play with her brother, Freddie Purrcury. Her favorite thing was to scare her mother half to death by sitting for hours on the ledge at the top of the second-floor stairwell (with no net).
Sadly, cancer seemed to consume her little body very quickly. May her memory be a blessing and may she continue to purr over the rainbow bridge with the rest of the angels from the extended zoo. Purr on sweet girl, you are missed.

Miss Stella turns 12 years old today. She lives her solitary life of joy and continues to smile and purr and amuse as long as she is not with any other animals. We do love you, Stella.
Stella has lived in her own suite away from all the other animals since she was 4 (a long time now). She was bullying Noel once Mini Cooper came to live with us. Originally we were going to put Noel in the suite to give her a break from the bully, but the vet suggested that it was Stella who maybe wanted to be alone. And she does. Stella has lunch or dinner with a human and watches a lot of HGTV and the cooking channel. We tried Animal Planet but V thought it was too violent for Stella so, home decorating it is.
Happy Birthday, Big Girl

Where has the summer gone? Here it is mid-August, the DOGDAZ of Summer, so they say, and we have hardly gotten anything we wanted to accomplished. Oh well! Maybe that is the way it was supposed to be. I think I will just lie here on Jolie’s new bed and take an afternoon nap. I am 16-1/2 years old you know and need more rest than younger kits. – Noel, the Queen of the DogDaz Zoo

A cat’s life is just so purrfect. Sleep 18 to 20 hours of the day and eat or bathe the rest of the time. I have said it before and I will say it again, I want to come back as Noel.

Baby Lavender
Lavee & Bro Glitch
You might recall that my daughter, Peanut, has a smokey gray cat with Cerebral Hyperplasia (CH), named Glitch. He is now 2 years old. Well, Peanut now lives with ‘AA’ who has a cat named Eevee; he’s a wonderful Maine Coon mix who is also about 2. Glitch and Eevee just instantly loved each other. What an odd thing. I have never seen two cats become best friends within 10 days of meeting each other.
Then, Peanut and AA added a 2 lb bundle of mischief, named Lavender. She is of course pushing her two big brothers around. What a trio these three grand cats make. I can’t wait to see their future adventures. Eevee was giving Lavender a bath and then fell asleep on her. Too funny.

There will always be cats. When we first moved into the house in 2001 we had 5 felines: Gertrude, Alice, The Muffin Man (Muffy), and the twin Russian Blues; Cuddles (who was anything but cuddly) and Zachary. When Alice, Cuddles, and Gertrude all crossed over the rainbow bridge, we adopted Constance Kitty and Noel, the Christmas cat, who were both special needs kitties. Connie only survived 5 years, but it was a great 5 years. She was one of the silliest cats and had a great sense of humor. Noel, who has no sense of humor, is still going strong at 16. Noel makes us laugh every day, but she doesn’t understand why. We just love them for who they are.
