Floyd, Ivan and Ned are the animals that live in our house. We used to have hermit crabs, and we used to have parakeets, but cats and dogs are far more entertaining.
Clyde died. Clyde came to us via the Jerome Humane Society, in 2001, when he was just shy of 1 year old. A "flamepoint siamese mix" he was big, cheeky, vocal and friendly. You could not ask for a better behaved cat! He would even allow us to walk him on a leash. Clyde died in 2011, at age 11. He was a wonderful and entertaining pet, and he will live on forever in the paintings and photographs he inspired..
Floyd, an AKC registered Chihuahua, came to us via Horses 'R Us in Old Town Cottonwood, at age 6 weeks back in '03. That's him at left, the week we brought him home, weighing in at a hefty 24 oz., most of that being in his giant noggin. He's a full grown 5.5 lbs. now and somewhat famous for his travel photos, and crazy costumes.
Ivan is a brindly, muscley ball of delight, a Boston Terrier born in nearby Rimrock, AZ. We brought him home in 2004 when he was 8 weeks old, a shy little pudgeball. He's now the biggest pet in our pack.
Two new additions to the menagerie: A handsome kitten named Ned, born in April of 2011, and adopted in May and Hazel, a chihuahua mix puppy born in December 2011 and adopted in February 2012. |
