I’ll tell you a little bit about the girls. The most fun is to turn over a rotting log and watch them go to town! They gobble all the centipedes and millipedes and some worms. That part about the worms is actually a drawback of chicken ownership. Roxanne used to charge in when I would rake the garden and gobble up all the ever-loving, earth-eating, wriggly worms she could get to. Whoops! Good thing they turn their dinner into breakfast for us!

Boo

Boo Radley from "To Kill a Mockingbird" was my inspiration. Boo was an enigma. One day she just showed up as I was moving and then she just walked right into my heart and started to purr. She helped housewarm our new place in Ballard by catching all the mice. She could jump 3 feet into the air and catch a bug-from a standstill! I taught her to roll over. And she did it without the promise of a treat-only for the fact that she loved me. She left us last August-kidney failure. We had her for 14 wonderful years! What an awesome cat.

with any luck by this time next week we'll have adopted a new kitten or two. I'm not sure about the two part. What do you think? Is two kittens no more trouble and twice the fun? -

My BFF Melanie rescues cats and kittens in the Adirondacks.
My favorite was Redfern the King of Donuts, or Red for short.
He was an un-neutered stray alley cat living in Glens Falls NY and Mel and her hubby Gary managed to finally catch Red with a glazed Dunkin' Donut in a have-a-heart- trap. This was many years ago. Mel always figured Red was around 5 or 6 when they got him. He got all his shots, and neutered and lived with them for a very long time. The best part of going to her house to visit was Red sitting on top of the fridge in the kitchen--he'd always give a playful headbutt to you anytime you stopped at the fridge for a beer or snack! He passed last summer and I miss him every time I visit--he was a real fixture in her home and so well mannered and playful! -

Wed, July 1, 2009 - 10:31 PMZmeya! That story is priceless. I think they know they're people too. You know, like Red was a beer drinker in a former life and he liked donuts. Hey, maybe he was a cop!
This is the perfect lead-in for my furry friend Scout. Scouter Bean Thompson. She's skinny like a string bean. She was born in the barn where our buddy Duke lived. More about Duke later. We used to joke that all the kittens born in that barn were ugly because we only had room for two cats in our tiny house. So Scout was the last cute one born. Scout loves to head butt you. She is an expert in the art of self-petting. And she's beautiful and she knows it. What a ham!

Re: *****PEOPLE'S PET POSTS******
Sat, July 4, 2009 - 12:55 AMwell, this isn't turning out to be as popular as i hoped oh, well. here's one last post.
Duke
My husband Steve worked for a woman who had leased her horse out and the horse came back a shadow of her former self. Starved and mistreated, she need TLC. Steve's boss sold her to him for a song and Steve nursed her back to health. Her name was "Duchess" and she was a black bay thoroughbred. She used to love racing bicyclists on the bridle trails in Bothell. She got pregnant accidentally and. too weak to make it, lost her life in foal. So Steve nursed the colt too. He fed him milk at 2am just like any good papa. When he was old enough he taught him to drink milk from a goat. Steve loved John Wayne, so the tough little guy was named "Duke". Well, Steve and Duke had a long, happy friendship and last winter, almost 18 years later, Duke got colic and Steve had to make the decision to end Duke's life. In the freezing pasture on Martin Luther King Day, as the sun set and dusk began, Duke breathed his last. A good friend of ours said something that truly hit home. "Somehow the right horse always finds us when we need them most of all. And just as suddenly as they come to heal us, even when we don't think we've learned all we can from them, they seem to know when their work is done." Duke, your work is done. Rest now friend.
