Meet My Critters

Back on January 2nd, Casey & I adopted sweet little Ella from the Mesquite Animal Shelter. She was approximately 10 weeks old. She has captured our hearts (even Casey's) with her spunky little attitude and cuddly sweetness. She stays indoors and is my very first kitty to do so. Growing up, I always had cats, but they had to stay outside and only came inside if they were being held or closely watched. Ella is VERY house trained and has never made a 'mistake.' Good for her! :) She does wear 'fake kitty nails' over her front claws to keep from scratching. I know that probably sounds really strange, but they are vet approved, gel covers that you put a little bit of glue in, and then stick on. It works pretty well! Here she is...

Last, but certainly not least...On Sunday, the 22nd of this month, Casey and I went and got our newest addition to the family. She is now 10 weeks old and is already quite large for a pup! She is a full blood, black labrador retriever. She is already really smart...she has learned how to sleep quietly in her crate, walk on a leash, come when she is called, fetch her ball (every time now!), and sit (about half the time). That is a lot for only 4 days training! Here she is...
