The Dog Is Going For A Walk Tail

Posted by admin on June 27th, 2009

Harley says there will be no dog walk
Harley will eat the leash to stop the dog walk

~As always, Harley has to be involved with everything that happens in the house. Yesterday, while my husband was cleaning the shower with bleach, Harley decided to take his usual end of the shower drink to early. I think he will be fine. By Harley’s actions , when Ozzbourne is getting ready for a walk, I believe he would like to go too. It’s been suggested by my family to make him a harness & test it out in the backyard. I don’t think so. My cats stay inside. ~

Dog Jokes

10 Reasons Why It’s Great to be a Dog

  1. If it itches, you can reach it. And no matter where it itches, no one will be offended if you scratch it in public.
  2. No one notices if you have hair growing in weird places as you get older.
  3. Personal hygiene is a blast: No one expects you to take a bath every day, and you don’t even have to comb your own hair.
  4. Having a wet nose is considered a sign of good health.
  5. No one thinks less of you for passing gas. Some people might actually think you’re cute.
  6. Who needs a big home entertainment system? A bone or an old shoe can entertain you for hours.
  7. You can spend hours just smelling stuff.
  8. No one ever expects you to pay for lunch or dinner. You never have to worry about table manners, and if you gain weight, it’s someone else’s fault.
  9. It doesn’t take much to make you happy. You’re always excited to see the same old people. All they have to do is leave the room for five minutes and come back.
  10. Even garbage can looks like a cold buffet to you.

Cat Trivia Continued Tail

Posted by admin on June 23rd, 2009

Harley proves that a box doesn’t have to be solid for him to enjoy it. Breeze thought the whole idea of laying under a piece of cardboard was ridiculous, but then getting affection was not.

*I heard there was a study done to determine if cats are actually smarter than dogs. Not true. Dogs are the smarter animal. * Lol to my dog followers.

Trivia Continued:

A cat that bites you for rubbing his stomach is often biting from pleasure, not anger.

A cat uses its whiskers to determine if a space is too small to squeeze through. The whiskers act as feelers or antennae, helping the animal to judge the precise width of any passage.

A cat will almost never meow at another cat. Cats use this sound for humans.

A cat will clean itself with paw and tongue after a dangerous experience or when it has fought with another cat. This is believed to be an attempt by the animal to soothe its nerves by doing something natural and instinctive.

A cat will never break a sweat because it has no sweat glands.

A cat will spend nearly 30% of its life grooming itself.

A cat will tremble or shiver when it is extreme pain.

A cat’s arching back is part of a complex body language system, usually associated with feeling threatened. The arch is able to get so high because the cat’s spine contains nearly 60 vertebrae which fit loosely together. Humans have only 34 vertebrae.

A cat’s brain is more similar to a human’s brain than that of a dog.

A cat’s brain is more similar to a man’s brain than that of a dog.

Box Fetish Tail

Harley N boxThere is a fetish in my house for boxes.
You can see that Harley finally found a box that he could lay in.
There was an argument over who’s Motorola box it was.
Harley wanted inside the box that is actually is a perch/nap spot for Breeze.
A question arose in the comments on my last post. What did I get for my Birthday? A new hat, sandals and some unmentionables.

Unwrapping Tail

Posted by admin on June 16th, 2009

bdOn Saturday, Ozzbourne and Harley had to be noisy and see what I was getting for my birthday. They consider all presents in the house there’s to check out. I thought, the picture of Harley, with the card open viewing the cat on it was adorable.

Animal Joke:

Mrs. Broomfield’s dishwasher quit working, so she called a repairman. He couldn’t accommodate her with an evening appointment, and since she had to go to work the next day, she told him: “I’ll leave the key under the mat. Fix the bd2dishwasher, leave the bill on the counter, and I’ll mail you the check. By the way, don’t worry about my Rottweiler. He won’t bother you. But, whatever you do, do not under any circumstances talk to my parrot!”

When the repairman arrived at Mrs. Broomfield’s apartment the next day, he discovered the biggest and meanest looking Rottweiler he had ever seen. But, just like she had said, the dog just lay there on the carpet, watching the repairman go about his business.
However, the whole time he was there, the parrot drove him nuts with his incessant squawking and talking. Finally the repairman couldn’t contain himself any longer and yelled: “Shut up, you stupid bird!”

To which the parrot replied: “Get him, Brutus!

Laundry Day Tail

Posted by admin on June 13th, 2009





Laundry day is always enjoyed by both Harley and Breeze. Harley likes to be in the empty basket or in the basket with the dirty laundry. Breeze prefers you to bring her the clean laundry for her to sleep on before you put it away. I took these pictures of Harley while I was sorting the laundry.

TRIVIA ABOUT CATS:

95% of cat owners admit they talk to their cats.

A cat can jump as much as seven times its height.

A cat can spend five or more hours a day grooming himself.

A cat can sprint at about thirty-one miles per hour.

A cat cannot see directly under its nose. This is why the cat cannot seem to find tidbits on the floor.

A cat has 230 bones in its body. A human only has 206 bones.

A cat has four rows of whiskers.

A cat in a hurry can sprint at about thirty-one miles per hour.

A cat is pregnant for about 58-65 days.

A cat sees about six times better than a human at night because of the tapetum lucidum , a layer of extra reflecting cells which absorb light.

Facts copied from i-Pets.com.

I learned from the one about cats not seeing under their nose. Breeze seems to have problems finding treats in my hand.

Happy Weekend to you!

Nothing Gets Done Around The House Tail

Posted by admin on June 9th, 2009



These pictures are proof that Harley gets nothing done around the house. Not a bug or a mouse caught. No, there isn’t any mice around our house, but there are plenty of bugs. He is to busy with lap time, being nosy time and to lazy to cook time.
Animal Joke:

“Cat hating husband”
A man hated his wife’s cat and he decided to get rid of it. He drove 20 blocks away from home and dropped the cat there. The cat was already walking up the driveway when he approached his home.

The next day, he decided to drop the cat 40 blocks away but the same thing happened.

He kept on increasing the number of blocks but the cat kept on coming home before him. At last he decided to drive a few miles away, turn right, then left, past the bridge, then right again and another right and so on until he reached what he thought was a perfect spot and dropped the cat there.

Hours later, the man calls his wife at home and asked her, “Jen is the cat there?” “Yes, why do you ask?” answered the wife. Frustrated the man said, “Put that cat on the phone, I’m lost and I need directions.”

Bug Watching Tail

Posted by admin on June 3rd, 2009




Breeze and Harley are very good at finding the bugs and playing with them. They loose it at the final step.

Animal Joke:

“Selling bug spray”
A salesman was traveling through the country side, flogging insect repellent. He came to a farmhouse and tried his pitch on the farmer. “Sir, my bug spray is so good you will never be bitten again. I guarantee it.”

The farmer was dubious. “Young man, I’ll make you a proposition. I’ll tie you out in my cornfield buck naked, covered with that bug spray. If there is not a single bite on you come morning, I’ll buy a whole case from you.”

The salesman was delighted. They went to the field and he stripped. The farmer sprayed him thoroughly with the bug spray and tied him to a stake. Back to the house went the farmer. The next morning, the farmer and his family trooped out to the cornfield. Sure enough, the salesman was there, hanging in his bonds, not a single bite on him. Yet he was a total wreck!

Pale, ghastly, haggard, and drawn, but not one bite on him. The farmer was perplexed. “Son,” he said, “Now, you don’t have a bite on you but you look like hell! What the devil happened?”

The salesman looked up through bloodshot eyes and croaked, “Jeezus Christ, Mister, Doesn’t that calf have a mother?”

Remember, June is a busy month at the animal shelters. Adopt a new family member, if you can make the life long commitment.
