I loved getting this cheery news from Tammi, whom I have helped with a few kitty questions. How exciting to actually “meet” one of the good souls who adopts dogs after they are liberated from the hell of a puppy mill. Lucky Ruby!
It’s been a long time since I have written or called you and that is good news. A wonderful bit of good news is that my Mom recently rescued a 4 year old Shih Tzu from a local humane society. It seems as though the state of Kansas rescued over 70 Shih Tzu’s from a hoarder. The poor dogs were in horrible shape but better now. The little girls name is Ruby and she is a doll. Mom has had her for 2 weeks and they are inseparable. Ruby follows her everywhere, including work. The two were meant for each other! Mom is feeding her a brand called Into the Wild and I think the fowl flavor. Ruby is malnourished and bald but we see wonderful changes each day.
All 3 of my felines are adjusting to each other and getting into a routine. The 2 greyhounds are still afraid of the cats and get this, Zosimos (the middle child at 9 months) likes to steal the greyhounds pig ears during treat time at night! We have to monitor treat time now because one greyhound is very possessive of her pig ears while the other one will let Zosimos take it. It is an unusual sight to see!
As always, thank you for all you do to help us pet owners. My copy of The Cat Bible is very used and I am giving my Mom her own copy of The Dog Bible tomorrow now that she has Ruby. Take care of yourself and keep taking care of us!
Meows & Woofs!
