On our first Valentine’s Day as a married couple, Scott adopted a cat for me, thus proving how much he loved me. Mostly because he married into three cats already, one of which refused to let him sit next to me for the first six months that we dated. We had been to the vet [...]

Y’all remember my cat, Calliope, who has peed on everything but cat litter even when placed in a small bathroom with her litter box? That sweet cat who had to be moved into the dog cage for her protection because she went nuts one day and hid in the attic of my neighbor’s garage for [...]

I'm also crying.

My mother-in-law’s dog, Misha, is staying with us for the week. He came with a set of instructions like She’s not really on a schedule and She is totally crate-trained. We were given further instruction by unnamed sources on things like the MIL/Misha version of crate-training involves building a sound-proof bunker. And living in it. [...]

Dog poop bags

When we had Ratchet dog (who has been re-adopted! yay!), we bought biodegradable doggy crap bags. Luckily, they came with directions broken down into six easy-to-follow steps because “steward of the environment” might also mean “moron”. Our neighbors*, finding our love of the environment repugnant, since global warming is just a natural course of events [...]

Goodbye Ratchet Dog

November 26, 2010

in My Son, Pets

With a great sadness and disappointment, we are re-homing Ratchet. He bit my son in the face a week or so ago. The good news: It was over a very high value item (pork tenderloin – yum!) He used bite control (he mostly left a large bruise) The bad news: His resource guarding is only [...]

Okay not this tall. But close

Scott walks into the room: The dog is going to die tonight. Me: Whaaaat??? What are you talking about? Scott: He ate chocolate. Me: When? Scott: Just now. It was that bag of Halloween candy. Me: Oh no! I just left it on the counter a few minutes ago! (PS. Our dog is TALL) Scott: [...]

We only have three pictures of the elusive Calliope. She's so sweetly crazy though.

As we all remember, I have three cats. Quick review since even my friends forget my cats’ names: Loki (norse god of mischief and fire) looks like he ate the fourth cat but probably just laid down and tried to get the other cat to rub his belly. Juno (goddess of women and jealousy) is [...]

I hate my neighborhood. I thought it was the people. And then I realized that it IS the people especially when they’re behind the wheel of large metal objects speeding towards my family. The other day, I am walking with my daughter and my dog, Ratchet. The dog, being unaware of the perils of living [...]
