This Place is a Zoo

I took two cats, in two cat cages to the vet on Tuesday for shots. I had little GD2 with me. We got to the sign in desk and noted the long wait. I looked at the clock and remembered that I had to leave soon to pick up GD1 at the Zoo. The receptionist …

Double Take,

Look before the link to cat number 1 is outdated. This cat was featured in the humane society “adopt a pet” section last Sunday, in the Detroit Free Press. Here is a a picture I took this morning of Chloe, one of two kittens D2 brought home from that society last year. OK. As Papa …
