The day will come when men such as I will look upon the murder of animals the
way they now look upon the murder of men. -- Leonardo Da Vinci. |

Casper and Gypsy hanging out on their Adobe furniture.
Gypsy is anxiously awaiting dinner... as usual. Food is the only thing
that makes Gypsy move quickly. J

Gypsy lounging on her pet bed.
Gypsy adopted me one day in October 1996 as I was coming out of my chiropractor's
office. She was a bag of bones wrapped up in fur... but just look at
her now. Much like Scarlet O'Hara in "Gone With the Wind",
Gypsy has vowed that "she will never be hungry again!". J

Casper joined our family on
November 17th, 1995. He was 5 weeks old. Casper likes to hang out in his hip, Southwestern style adobe
hut. Especially when he's hiding from Norman... |

The Top Ten Cat Mandments: A Must For Every
Cat-Owned Home.
1. I am the Lord of thy
House. 2. Thou shalt have no other pets before Me. 3. Thou shalt never
ignore Me. 4. I shall ignore Thou when I feel like it. 5. Thou shalt be
grateful that I even give Thou the time of day. 6. Remember My food dish and
keep it full. 7. Thou shalt spend most of Thy money on toys and gifts for
Me. 8. Thou shalt always have Thy lap ready for Me to curl up in. 9. Thou
shalt shower Me with love and attention upon demand. 10. Above all, Thou
shalt do anything and everything it takes to keep me happy.

The incredible "laughing" Casper! |

Ezri, the newest addition to the household,
is a rat terrier that we adopted from American
Rat Terrier Rescue in May 1999. She was approximately one year
old when she joined us. Don't let her diminutive stature fool you... her
"Napoleon complex" is alive and well. This little, 11 pound
bundle of pure (and
usually highly destructive) energy is "in charge" of the entire
household. I hear this phase only lasts seven years... <gulp>.... |

Our
very big boy, Norman, was born August 4th, 1997. He loves to bark and chase the cats.
Needless to say, they're not too happy with him... but it does give them
some exercise! |

Pebbles and her best friend
ever... a tennis ball. Pebbles waits for me, tail wagging and with a
tennis ball in her mouth, at the Rainbow
Bridge. We love you, Pebbles.

Dogs have owners. Cats have staff. |
