Fred Cat, my sweet (sarcasm here) 10 year old cat, has taken over Little Girl’s bed and is -in these photos-defending her turf as Little Girl tries to get back in her own bed.

Have you ever heard of The Bridge?   I have because I have a couple of good friends who work there!  And I think they do spectacular things for troubled youth across Metro-Atlanta. They have even been around since 1970.

Brutus, Little Girl, Fred Cat and Bella Cat have spent almost as much time at The Village Vets as they do at home. They seem to gravitate towards the vets to see Dr. Stacy or Dr. Villines (the two we see most often) when they have stomach problems, gashes in their butts, or after […]

I’m sitting here listening to NPR this morning in my pajamas.  There is a piece on recycling waste across the world and making bio-fuels.  I am wondering why we can’t recycle dog poop.  Does anyone know of a place who actually uses poop for anything?  It is a thought.  Maybe one day we could start […]
