ANIMALS IN OUR LIVES :)

[DRUMS01]

All I can say is everybody has some wonderful and beautiful animals. I guess it's my turn to show our extended family to all of you. 

This is our AKC registered Australian Sheepdog, her name is Jenny. We named her after Jenny in Forrest Gump. Sometimes we call her Jean-naye-naye, other times a couple of our friends call her Jennifer. As long as you have a treat for her she will come to you regardless of the name you call her. This is a photo when she was very little:

and one in her doggy teens, yes she has the two different colored eyes. She is an excellent herder of anything to include sheep, cows, people, cats, deer, squirrels, ducks, geese, raccoons, yes.... anything.

She is very smart and can open doors, turn on and off lights, talk to you, etc. She is also very ornery. In this instance my wife, Becky, gave her some coffee, Jenny loves coffee.

Jenny loves to go on rides in the truck any time of year. And here she is currently, a mature lady and with her friend, one of our cats named Sweet Pea:

Sweet Pea is a very relaxed female calico who adopted us three years ago. She is a fantastic hunter of birds, moles, rabbit, chipmunks, field and regular mice, and more. She loves to proudly show her captured, dead, half eaten critters to us whenever the opportunity present (outside of course).

snuggle time with a friend

And last but not least, here is out diva that is names Miah (mi-jah). She rules the animal kingdom within the house. First photo is as a rescue kitten, checking out her new home for the first time:

And here she is now in all her majesty's dominion:

May all our animals have a safe and happy time this holiday season.

This is Shadow. Our little terror!! He loves mud, and chewing anything that can make a noise. And, of course, barking at 03:00 am for no  reason.

Barking at 3:00 ? Must be a Portuguese dog …

That's a great pic of your friends. Sunny our cat is still trying to figure out if Jimmy is friend or foe.

Three of my four little critters. I lost runt a couple of weeks ago when she was hit by a car. I gave roofus her name after I found her on my roof one day when she was just a kitten. They are now 2 1/2 yrs old. Love their Friskies!

Nor should you feed too many to your child. 

Made that mistake when Findlay was almost 1. Then got to watch his diaper overflow as we were about to get on the plane at Heathrow. Sue was not happy with me.

I absolutely hate these Mexican kidnappers. No sense of decency there, they put you on fancy ships, serve Mojitos and Enchiladas and leave you on precious beaches. What was the ransom to bail out, a WNW Felixstowe?
Poor Martin, what a sad story .

No one, who has ever spent any time around a peacock, would let one in their house. The sound they make would raise the dead, or give you a heart attack and then raise you from the dead. It's horrific. Plus, they shit on everything and they're mean. They are only good for tying flies for fishing....

Some of you met Kaiser on my build thread.  Here he is again.

He's still not overly fond of me.  Eventually...   I'll be stuck feeding the bastard once the wife gets tired of it.

You had it coming, when you named him Kaiser, which degrades you automatically to his subject .
