Here’s a summer update on the pets:
Our dog Bogie is over a year and a half now. He’s been a great addition to the family!
It has been years since I had had a dog and that special companionship he brings amazes me almost every day. Even after a rough day at work, he can make me smile, get out and exercise, have fun. He and the cats have come to a good understanding, especially as he’s mellowed out a bit.
Thirty-thousand years of co-existing makes for a bond between humans and dogs that I think is fascinating. We trust then with our homes, our children and really our hearts, too. And they can be assured of being with us where ever that is; arctic to desert to space. If we make to Mars, you know we’ll eventually bring our dogs.
We’ve been a cat family for a long time, with as many as four; we’re at three right now.
Linkin is our eight year old orange tabby. He is an adoption from the SPCA; we got him as a kitten. Of all the cats, he most enjoys being with people, although time spent on the screen porch is a close second. He's out most vocal cat.
Pip was rescued as a stray kitten from the neighborhood cat clan. Although 99% of them kept at a reasonable distance from any people, even as a kitten Pip would come right up to you. Unfortunately, he was also sick, and after a couple of weeks we had to take in, even though another cat was not on the agenda. The vet said he wouldn’t have made it another week. Thoughts of finding him a new home went away quickly. Pip is very quiet and likes his human interaction in small but frequent doses.
Skye is another adoption, after a death in the family. We are her third home. She took a while to warm up to us, but now enjoys the company, especially at night. Being the only female cat, the difference in her demeanor is fun to observe. She prefers a woman’s company, although mine will do if necessary.
Thanks for reading! Next up, maybe a book and music update. Later!
