Lynn - the dogs love him (Shelties seem totally intrigued by cats), GrayC ignores him, and Jack can't stop watching him. No mad playing yet but I expect it to happen quickly. He and Jack will be buddies, I'm sure. The new guy is settled in enough so that he's running, dashing, skittering and all the other adorable stuff that kittens do. He's been dragging even the dog's big stuffed toys around, growing to himself over the stuggle. I think that once he is allowed out in the screen room, the lizard population will plummet. I predict him to be a little killer so I'll have to keep him in and away from the birds! We found him at www.1-800-save-a-pet.com - a rescue organization that operates all over the US. You put in your zip code to find animals listed near you, then contact the individual rescue place. It's worth some computer time just to check them out. I had a Siamese as a child so I was sort of looking for one. When I saw this Siamese mix with the Big Foot I couldn't resist. I drove up to Jacksonville to get him! If anyone is interested, he has an identical brother and a crazy little sister who is tabby striped in gray and peach. I've never seen a cat with her coloring before and she's just beautiful. Both of the siblings have the toes too. Many of the cats in Key West are polydactyl and are referred to as Hemingway cats . (If he were female, Polly Dactyl would be a great name. Maybe Paulie Dactyl???) They are common enough so that you can even do a search on that save-a-pet site for Hemingway/Polydactyl cats. There was a fluffy black poly cutie listed in Orlando but the foster people never responded to my email about that one.

No sorry I wish! I only half trust my girl, of course I got her at five years of age and she was a kennal dog, but I don't trust her 100% I'm sure Barnay is leaps and bounds ahead of her. she has came to get me once in two years! It took her a year to be where I don't have to watch her 24/7 it used to be I would turn my back and see her coming back into the room and I knew she ran out and messed it took seconds on her part! He should have better control then something five pounds, my moms skipper/Chihuahua cross is about 15 and he has really good control and is 100% trustworthy of course she leaves him pee pads when she is gone for more then a few hours. We are down to a opps about every three months but I make her go out a LOT and only if I'm too busy does the opps happen but she never says hey I need to go potty :( she tells me when her balls get lost, Does Barnay have a thing for tiny balls with bells? all the paps I know go nuts for the cat toys. paps and most toy Dogs are very possessive of their people and have dominate personailtys that can play into potty training. other then crate train and have them out when you can watch them. Chi-chi sticks to my side like super glue if she is not in eye sight she is getting in the trash or pottying inside. My sister has gaven her the nick name... The defecating treasure seeker....... so you get the idea.....lol! what a show name huh? With chi-chi she HATES going outside with out me she flat out refused so as stupid as it sounds I had to have a few knock out drag out fights and be the leader so when I point out the door she goes, she is so sweet but she hated the thought of leaving me as she was alone in a kannel for five years she thinks my husband is a joke and if i'm gone she feels like she can mess in the house so he has had to step up and be the boss but it's so hard as she is so KOOT!!!! and stubren she don't give in easy lol. so with her it's part of a leadership thiing, she is a ture toy very possessive and she trys to rule the house and tell my husband he can't come into the same room as her and mommy if she is in my lap so I don't hold her in my lap all the time as she gets too bad and nippy yippy growly, she should know she is a doggy and not the lap police!

I am laughing out loud at these stories and videos. It's been quite a few years since I've had a pet, but I've had a few over the years. The dogs just did doggie things like steal the roast beef off the counter. Scruffy the mutt we found would sleep on the bed when we weren't home, which he wasn't supposed to do. I'd walk in the back door and hear a thunk from him jumping off the bed. When I went upstairs he'd pretend to be sleeping on the floor, in spite of the bedspread being messed up. Worst of all were the ferrets. They could and did eat everything. It would go in one end and come out the other in the shape of intestines. I have hot air heat in my house and they used the ducts as their own personal trail system. It was so funny to be sitting in the den and a ferret would be scrabbling behind the duct cover. My son had taken the cover off the duct in his room and they used that to get in and out.

Yes they had the SubZero and Wolf. Wish I had more time I would visit the local European appliance dealers. I managed only to get two pictures and that was of the escalator area and the ornate ceiling and columns. The sales person descended on me immediately (she is an American expat). Well she should win salesperson of the year. She knew I was not buying but she showed me the machines that would fit my space, let me push buttons and even made the conversion so I would understand how much the machines could take in weight. I still don't understand metric. LOL. She convinced me to seriously start looking around and replacing my old Malber She said the Little Giants are not available in Europe anymore. And that only one model is still available in stainless and that will be gone soon. Only white machines.
