We had wanted to get Fritz a puppy of his own to play with, but we didn’t want to subject Siggy to the trauma of a puppy, so we held off. Until yesterday, that is. No one dog could replace Siggy. So we got two (they don’t replace him either, of course). I feel kind of disloyal to the memory of Siggy, but these guys (well, one guy, one gal) are awfully cute. Sadly, Fritz doesn’t seem to like them one bit.
But, anyway, I hate to subject you to puppy pictures, but here are Peggy and Bud.
Playtime.
They look just like Fritz. How old are they? I’m afraid to show Mike the pictures and video because he’ll want a puppy. Lola would love to play with a puppy but I doubt she’d like us to pet one. She doesn’t always approve of us petting the cats.
They’re about 11 weeks old. Rescued from South Carolina.
We could all use some rescuing from South Carolina, except of course Newtie.
Uhhhhhh
Of course Siggy will not be forgotten or replaced. That’s not an issue.
Ahhh, but that did my heart good to see Fritz playing! What cuties! Welcome Peggy & Bud!!!! :pup: (Will they let you sleep through the night? )
Not last night. :yawn: Bud yipped and yapped for a long time before settling down — I felt so bad for poor little Peggy (sue – pretty pretty pretty little Peggy Sue) — didn’t hear her complaining.
Closed ’em both up in their crate with the chew toys and some treats tonight & Bud whined for a little, so did Peggy because I think he got her going, but not nearly as long as last night.
Bud’s a jumper, so that trait has to go away forthwith because he is going to be a BIG dog and that jumping sh*t will go away sooner than later if I have anything to say about it. Don’t need any busted bones at my advanced age by golly.
Peggy doesn’t seem to have the dominance thing and isn’t much of a jumper. She’s a sweet little girl but is holding her own with her obnoxious-but-too-darn-cute big brother.
Here we go again — off on another critter adventure. :pup: :pup: :pup: are the best next to :cat: :cat: — and our poor :cat: :cat: s are still a bit discombobulated by the monsters that have been introduced into this house :billcat: :billcat:
