See?? He is no longer asking everyone to kill him! I put that germ-killing shit in his eyes and he healed right up!

The Good: Frobozz finally stood still long enough for a picture.

The bad: This is because he took a five foot digger off the top of the staircase, over the non-kitten-proofed rail and onto the stairs below.

Well, if you can't open this one up for repair, don't put it up on ebay.
Good point Bobby!

Soon after moving to Norf Carolina, we got a puppy. He's a Jack Russell/whippet mix. Very cute and random-looking. He looks like he was made out of spare parts.

I don't have any pics hosted yet, but I'll get one up at some point.

Bugs, I want to see your doggie.

OK, so I typed in "kitten earlobe" into Google in order to find out if it's OK that Frobozz constantly tries to nuzzle there. Found this:
There must be something about your earlobe that makes your cat want to nurse like it did when it was a kitten. Sometimes an animal can get into a habit for no known reason and it is hard to break. You can try rubbing the peal of an orange against your earlobe. Cat generally do not like the smell of citrus. You can also try a pet repellent. If nothing like that doesn't work try covering your ears with either ear muffs or tape a gauze bandage to it.
Yeah, walking around with gauze on my fucking ears all the time, I was going to try that, but that sounded a little bit like defeat to me, LOL! Instead I just put "Stuck In the Middle With You" on and CUT THEM FUCKING OFF.

Chester, the new ball python foster, who decided to show he had mites AFTER I put him on the expensive cypress mulch bedding (bedding will have to be thrown out, because of mite eggs. Mites do not translocate to other beings, in case you're wondering).

Frobozz approves of the snake perch:

So, once a group of mites infest one being, they are forever bound to that being? How romantic.
Good point Bobby!

Snake perch....

Let's all say that together..snake perch.

Something I would not have around due to the fact that it involves actual snakes perching. Now, I'm sure these reptiles are very nice and all but I would not want them perching around me. What is the life expectancy of a small furry cat with actual snakes outside of glass enclosures?

Don't let the relative sizes of the pictures fool you, the snake couldn't eat something 1/4 the kitten's size. Although, now that I look at them again, it does seem like the huge snake is menacing over the wee kitten.

Dear Cats,

Have you seen a snake anywhere?

No reason.

That's wonderful. Which one got out? I'm really only hoping that both of them didn't get out at this point. Why on earth would you be all coy about this? Jesus.

Jonathan (the Associate Director of the shelter) found my
snake at our Halloween party! We were all in the office where the tank is, and I was saying that it was weird to me that he could ever have gotten out of the room, as the cats
would have gotten him, but that Robb and I had searched the room top to
bottom 4 times. J asked if I had checked under the tv stand (which doesn't
do tv, but had a little dvd player for my yoga vids), and I demonstrated no,
duh, the stand is flush to the floor. He, patiently, asked if I had ever
noticed that only the front molding was against the floor, but, in the back,
there was an inch gap open to the wall between the bottom of the stand and
where the molding hits the floor. I was all, really??!!? and he and the
volunteers immediately moved the tv off and lifted the stand, and, sure
enough, Archon was curled up under there, chilly and scared. I think I
hugged Jonathan like 13 times. I am so happy to have my little guy back :) I'm so glad we all stressed out about his travels when he went all of 4 feet away.

"Hi! Thank you for coming to our party. Let me take your coats. Wonderful costumes! Food and drink are in the other room, and by the way there is a real live snake loose somewhere in the house. Please don't wander off by yourself as you may become the next victim...."

Apparently one of the iguanas down there has been known to crack open a skull and eat the brains of the animal it skull cracked.

This same animal scratched Dayna, so I guess she will be a zombie soon too. My best defense is to shrink my brain as quickly as possible, so I will be wearing a toddler's fitted baseball hat and buy a Coleco Adam.

Prey for me brothers, Prey!

Hey, AIM refuses to send me my AIM password. I guess I could just start typing stuff in and hope I get it, but that's why I am never on there any more.

Actually, between my good friend Roody and good friend Lex (who is on MSN) I just might have to get an install of Trillian going. This is RIDICULOUS. It's 2006 and I converse, poorly, with the people I do care about.
