We have one dog that is a Boston Terrier/Spitz mix named Bailey Jack.  He was three on Christmas Day.  I love him, but I'm really more of a cat person.

We also have 2 cats.  Gracie Lou (a dilute calico named for "Miss Congeniality) will be 1 in June.  Mercy Mae (a silver marble tabby) will be 1 in July.  They are both rotten, but we love them.  I don't know what I'd do without my babies. 

I love them both, but Gracie really loves her Mama.  She sits in my lap all the time.  I guess Gracie is really close to me because when we first adopted her, she came from a home that had 22 other cats.  We brought her home when she was just a little ball of fluff.  Her ears were filled with dirt from the ear mites that she had.  I don't see how the poor thing could even hear.  We nursed her back to health (she was extremely skinny, too) and now she's content living as an indoor cat.

Mercy's first home was better.  There wasn't an over abundance of cats.  We gave her the right name, too.  We are constantly saying, "Mercy" after she's done something.  She's always into something and looking at us so innocently.  Her fur feels more like rabbit fur than cat fur.  When we have to scold her, she back talks us.  Lately, we had to take her to the vet twice because she had a urinary tract infection.  She is still on medication, but rotten as ever.  At least now she's stopped peeing on the floor.  I really got worried about her though.  I guess it just goes to show how quickly you can get attached to little fur balls.

Sorry this is a long post, but these are my children.  I've got to brag.

I know the feeling. I can't believe that my last post was so short. When it comes to my cats, I can talk and talk and talk.  I could tell cat-stories until doomsday.

I hear that!  I'm the same way.  When people ask me if I have children, I say, "I have fur children."

We have a hyperactive chocolate labrador named Blue, so named because when he was a pup, he had big blue eyes. :)

I have two colorful, loudmouthed parakeets named Othello and Squeaker. Othello is a bright blue color and Squeaker is this awesome lime green and yellow color.

My sister has a black bear hamster named Midnight. She has this habit of stuffing her cheeks full of food so it looks like she has the mumps. ;D

I used to keep land hermit crabs as pets,they are way cool-and somewhat different than the usual pets! My favorite one was my first aptly named "Hermie". I plan to start buying more 'hermie's once the weather gets warmer.

I remember reading somewhere that cats have the approximate intelligence of a 2-3 year old human child. But I think they have an understanding of human nature that goes deeper than that. Tika seems to sense when I need her friendship the most,and cuddles with me. I now see why cats are used in pet therapy...they have a Ph.D in LOVE.

I had a cat who know every answer to every question, knew everything about all the  mysteries of life, he just knew it all. But he wasn't telling anyone.

Gracie Lou snores, too.  Bless her heart, she's so sweet when she does.  Usually we nap together on the couch and she lets me hold her like a stuffed animal.  We usually wake each other up snoring.  One time I woke up with her little paw on my lips.  She was staring at me as if to say, "Mom, please stop snoring."  What can I say, she's my baby.   ;D
