"Apuppy Ohno," Speed Skater!

Back in May, we had our floors redone after what we thought was my guinea pigs, Rosemary, and Olivia's, cage smelling turned out to be a water leak that wrecked my rooms carpet. We decided to get stained concrete. So, after a week we moved back in and we let the pets explore and get used to the floor. Our other cat, Sera, caught on immediately, our greyhound, Lab mix, Jessie, was too happy to see us to notice the difference, Duncan stayed on a suitcase for 5 hours before coming down, and then there was, Martha, our German Shepherd mix. She took one step on the floor and then learned how to ice skate. The hard way. Step, step, SCRAMBLE FOR THE RUG! She's mostly figured out how to walk again but we're still going to buy her grippy socks later this week. We almost had an "Apuppy Ohno".

Duncan the Easter Bunny!

This is one of my most vivid memories of Duncan. On Easter we usually don't decorate a lot. Sure, we have the bowl of jelly beans, the Easter baskets, and the little piles of Easter eggs, but nothing too big. It was our cat Duncan's first Easter, and he strongly disagreed with the decor. We woke up to find the bowl of jelly beans tipped over, the little plastic eggs scattered through the house, and every inch of the floor covered in toilet paper. We even found some strung up on some of the lower pictures as if to look like streamers. He loves the holidays!
