The Shihpoo and The Barricade

I saw this video on youtube and so we had to try it out with Tom! The outcome wasn't as funny though... I think Tom is a little smarter.

Kitten Update and Adopted Baby Buns

I haven't seen my kittens in a few days. :( I keep looking for them though! Every time I go out back to do my business, I always try to peek over the wall to see of they're wrestling or sunbathing or doing some other cute kitten behavior. Tom still doesn't care. He will help me bark at their mom who we always see around.

I found this cute video of a King Cav who has adopted some little bunnies she found! I'm so jealous! I wish my mom would let me adopt the kittens I found.

Mom has found some info on local shelters/rescues for feral cats. Ideally "my" kittens would be neutered/spayed so they stop making more kittens! She even read about a program for feral cats who are neutered/spayed and immunized then adopted by people who use them as barn cats to trap vermin. The cats live outside but will be fed and have shelter. Sounds great. I will keep looking for my kittens so then maybe they can be given a home.

GUESS WHAT I FOUND!

KITTENS! I found 4 kittens hiding in the bamboo in the yard opposite mine. This is not such a big deal because there are a lot of feral cats in my neighborhood. Mom has been worried about what to do. Should she try to trap them and take them to the Humane Society? I want to keep them! (NO WAY, Huckleberry) Tom has no idea what's going on. Silly Shihpoo.

They're not that young because the mom kept wandering off and leaving them alone.

Here's a pic of us on our deck. See all that bamboo behind us? It's growing in these metal troughs on the other side of a concrete wall. Mom says it's our neighbors' privacy fence. The kittens are hiding out on the neighbors' side of the wall, underneath the troughs. It's probably nice and cool against that wall, under all that bamboo.


Here's an older pic of Coco and I peeking over the wall, into the neighbors' yard. The kittens would be to our right.

Happy Birthday to Biggie!

We wanted to wish our furry cousin Biggie a BIG Texas-Kuvasz style HAPPY BIRTHDAY! It's his first birthday! ...so does that make him 1 or 7 years old...hmmm

We knew Biggie would like this because check out those socks! Wowsers!

King of the Trampoline

Mom has this new thing called a trampoline. We think it's pretty cool. Tom and I have a new game we play: KING OF THE TRAMPOLINE!

Incessant Barking

We've been driving Mom and Dad nutso lately. I didn't used to bark so much, just once in a while when I got hyper and did my laps around the house (Huck's "laps" entail high speed running all around the living room and up and down the stairs like a roadrunner). But Tom has taught me how to bark. He likes to bark for all sorts of reasons. Like when we are supposed to be doing business out back, he will bark to let all the neighbors know that he has come outside. Or if he hears a car drive by our house he will bark to let us know a car has driven by. He barks when he is napping, chewing a bone, and carrying a toy. I think he just likes the sound of his own voice. When he barks it gets me all riled up so I start barking too. Mom then starts barking, telling us to shut up!

Which Celeb Would YOU Be?

I saw this on my cousin Biggie's blog and had to try it for myself!

This is my result:


Up for Anything
"Huckleberry trots a fine line between funny and stupid. His over-the-top antics make you grimace with fear and you often find it hard to believe that he actually enjoys playing the class clown. But Huckleberry laps it up and continues to defy the odds, despite your warnings and concerns. Other males in the pack tend to be a little jealous of Huckleberry, but the females find him simply dreamy. A die-hard good ol' boy, Huckleberry is more of a General Lee type than a Knight Rider, but give him enough time to think things through and he's sure to find a way to wreck both vehicles at the same time."


Ha, that's funny! I think it pretty accurate. Check out Tom's results:



"Enterprising, brassy and not afraid to bark what's on his mind, Tom is Idol-maker Simon Cowell! There's no beating around the bush with Tom and flattery will get you nowhere. Tom calls it like he sees it, and stands firm on all fours behind his decisions. The cat definitely does not have Tom's tongue—some of his pals think he's bitter and confrontational, while others find him to be impawsibly hilarious. Tom's influence on those around him is remarkable, and he takes advantage of this fact and uses it wisely. Behind his no-nonsense mask, Tom is a perceptive sponge, taking in what he sees and hears around him, and then figuring out how to make it look, or sound, better."

Try the quiz yourself and tell me who you are like!

Scary Eyes Explained!

Usually I am a very sweet boy. But sometimes, when I get hyped up, I become what Mom calls Devil Dog. I'm not mad or mean, but I look like it! I love to wrestle so when I'm wrestling, I need to look tough, not sweet. So that's why I go into Devil Dog mode!
