Harley was a good girl, but she ate things. Like telephones. And a vacuum.
No, I'm not kidding. A vacuum.
Dustbuster? Oreck XL? Hoover? (Dude, if she ate a Shop-Vac , I wouldn't get anywhere near her!!!)
We have two cats who own us, not the other way around...a gray spayed female Garfield named Spectra, and a little black-and-white neutered tom kitten (9 months old) named Franklin. Franklin was rescued with his brother when they were abandoned outside the emergency veterinarian clinic where my younger daughter works...the other kitten died, but Missy (the daughter) literally was a mama cat to Franklin. He's a lively little pain in the but he's mellowing out.
Spectra (yeah, named for the Kia!) was rescued from an animal shelter and used as a practice animal (humanely) for the veterinary technicians class at the college where she's studying...she is a bit cross-eyed, but she's a very loving and very quiet cat (hence the female Garfield description)...don't have a pic of Spectra, but I'll show Frankie in my album...
keep the beat goin' ... Don't keep it to yourself!
