I don’t know what they are called, but I call the little tiny flowers that look like daffodils, ‘dinkidils.’
Whatever they are, they are everywhere and they make us very happy on our walks. Happy spring, finally.
Have a sunny Black and White Sunday.

These two crack me up. Mini never ever ever leaves Nine alone. Sometimes he gets tired of her. But other times, he is the instigator. Deep down I think he really loves the rumble.Watch in the video how he eggs her on.
I cannot imagine a life without cats!

Remember last Mischief Monday when I was telling you that Mom gives me a special treat (because she loves me the most) when Louise and Sofie are not home. Well, last week she ran out of little dog bones and gave me one of Louise’s. I was in heaven.
I grabbed that thing with both paws and dragged it over to the best chewing spot on the rug and gnawed away at it. Mom had to take it away when the other’s were coming home so that they didn’t get jealous (or bite my head off, which is also possible).
Just because I’m little doesn’t mean I don’t enjoy big dog toys.

As you know, Louise and Sofie go to Sonya’s on Thursdays to run with the big dogs. I stay home and take care of Mom. Though I get a really special treat right after they leave (because Mom loves me best), I miss them when they are gone. I watch for them anxiously at the only window that I can see out of, the one over Mom’s piano. That’s why Mom calls me “The Piano Man.”
It works nicely as a lookout, don’t you think?
Even though Sofie is mean to me when she is home, I miss her when she is gone. Louise, of course, is my idol. She doesn’t cozy up to me as much as the cats do, but I really like to hang out with her.
I saw Louise try and look out the piano window the other day and Mom got really mad at her. I guess that is the benefit of being 15 lbs instead of 65.
What kind of mischief did you get into today?

This is Louise in April 2013. She looks exactly the same today sacked out in my bed (her favorite place). What’s your favorite place?

Squash E Bear was that one special dog that you just miss forever.
I have a little tuft of his fur stuck into a big picture of him next to my bed.

His energy and sweetness and hugginess are always with me.

As he aged, diabetes took his sight but not his incredible personality.
8 years goes very slowly when you miss someone.

I love my pictures and my memories. I have been so blessed by my Zoo.
Have a wonderful Black and White Sunday.

Cat paws are such delicate and fascinating things. Have you really ever looked at them? I am amazed how they provide such support to jump way up onto things when they are so soft and smushy. But that is exactly what they were designed for – they are shock absorbers. And did you ever notice your cat using their front paws to hold things like humans do? They have 5 fingers on their front paws but only 4 on their back. Want to know more about paws? Here are 9 Fascinating Facts About Cat Paws
