WOW, you really kept up with that sweetie pie! You couldn't have picked a faster or more active playmate for the afternoon. What fun!

I got worn out just looking at kiddo!! I bet his mom and dad sleep well every night. Lucky you Miss Cow, another new buddy. Enjoy your favourite vet and your treatment at the osteopath. Is he the one that gets you smoking?

Sleep well,

Kerren and the Kitties heartheartheart

Oh Eurydice!!! I could read about your adventures all day long! You make everything a fun adventure...even sleep!!

We all saw you take off flying, or galloping like a Mustang! Whatever you call'it, we saw your ears and jowls blowing in tne breeze!! 🙂 Maybe you rest more and that's good. But when you play, you still play hard! 🙂 🙂

That little young whippersnapper couldn't keep up with you!! It was so much fun wwatching you two interact 🙂 🙂

And Pitou, you are just as cute as can be! You certainly nhave made yourself at home.

Eurydice, you can bet you'll be the subject of conversation at our Virginia Tripawd Pawty! 🙂 🙂

Lots of love

Sally and Alumni Happy Hannah and Merry Myrtle and Frankie too!

Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
