My 2 rescue cats, one adopted 3 years ago, the other 2 months ago. The little one is a male calico, quite rare, and he's a total charmer! He can't stop playing with the big cat who has to run away and hide when it gets too much. He sleeps on my shoulder when I'm in front of my computer, or he sneaks a nap close to the big cat when she finally got to sleep.

Everyone has the tongues tucked in, it's pretty cool in the house, but it's hot and humid out, and everyone's been fed and it's time for the evening constitutional.

Tia waiting to ambush Misty.


If I get them to play with a toy a bit, they don't fight so much on the walk.


Waiting for his ball.


Are we going on a walk or what? All this fussing around.


Half way through the walk, tongues are coming out.












We had to cut the walk short, we don't want anyone getting overheated.

It was determined by the County Wildlife Association that the decline of the area's stuffie pheasant population was due to family pets.

In Memory of Miss Dixie

This has been a tough one, and has taken me a couple of months just to be able to post. We lost our 9 year old silver back beagle Miss Dixie, on June 6th to liver cancer. She was the sweetest, most loving companion we've ever had, and we miss her terribly.



In her honor, we decided to contact the local rescue, and give a good home to another beagle in need. Meet Inca, who will only answer to "Baby Girl" now. She's a one year old little lady, with an injured right eye. Her nose and hearing are absolutely incredible, adjusting I would imagine, for the loss of sight in the one eye.



And now, for the rest of the story. Who can go to a shelter, and come home with just one? Apparently, not us! This is Jordon, or "Jordy Boy", as he likes to be called. He is 3 years old and a silver back beagle, as was Miss Dixie.



Both are helping to heal our broken hearts as the days go by.

Griz,

Sorry for the loss of Miss Dixie. Looks like you have two beautiful new beagles, Baby Girl and Jordy Boy. My neighbor adopted a beagle, Tucker, about 2 years ago. Whenever she walks him, his nose is attached to the ground.

Thanks Sandra, they are quite a pair, that's for sure. We live on the side of a mountain, and have a very large rabbit population. If we had a caricature done of Baby Girl, I'm almost certain it would be at least 3/4s nose! There has been no lack of "beagle music" on our property. We officially christened our place, "Dixie Hill".

Very sorry about your loss Griz. What a wonderful tribute you have made in Miss Dixie's memory by bringing home those two beautiful creatures from the shelter.

Thanks Chuck, it's the very least we could do for all the joy that she gave us.
