I blame cadhla for Oh, Michelle. Then, hsifyppah defended vixyish with Damnit, Seanan. Of course, cadhla couldn't let that lie and fired back with Oh, Brooke. hsifyppah, being herself, had the response Oh, Seanan M... Then came libraryraven with Clever Brooke. Someone else, scifantasy, chimed in with Listen Girls aka War Correspondance. Well, all of those had me rolling on the floor as I read them (and not so coincidentally scaring the hell out of my cats). They insisted on having their say.

It is my utter pleasure to introduce the two newest members to my house.

Emma is a brown/black tortie who is very very sweet.
( Emma )

Tamara is a black/white tuxedo, who is very very inquisitive and also sweet.
( Tamara )

Both of them are busily exploring every nook and cranny of the house. I had tried to keep them in the library room to let them adjust more slowly, but, being cats, while I made dinner, they opened the door to the library and let themselves out into the rest of the house. I figure if they are ready to explore, then I’m not gonna stop them even if I try.

Today, at just after 5 PM, Belle passed away, after being put to sleep at the vet’s office.

She has been slowly becoming sicker over the past couple of weeks, losing weight and muscle mass. Over the past weekend, she began refusing food and the medicine which she needed and told us it was time for us to let her go.

We had our sweet Belle for 14 of her 16 years, after rescuing her from death-row in the Pittsburgh pound. We loved her deeply, and will miss her greatly.

( Good night sweet belle. )
