Funny story about how Tot ended up in my life. He showed up in my driveway one night, like I said. I happened to be outside helping my father (who was visiting from out of town) load his car for his planned early departure. I felt something rub against my ankle, and looked down to see the CUTEST KITTEN THAT EVER EXISTED. I took one look at him and said, "DO YOU WANT TO LIVE HERE?????"
My father, thinking of the fact that I already had 2 cats to take care of, immediately said, "NO."
My response??
The goofy cat now spends more time in my father's lap than mine... Typical cat.

I just saw KevinBacon's post about families. As I am both single and childless, I immediately thought of my furry, four-legged "children."
From L-R, we have: Trey, the attitudinal Siamese mix who I quite literally stole off of a friend's back porch; Tater Tot (also known as "Tot," "T Tot," "Teeter Totter," or simply "You big DOPE!), the random stray who showed up in my driveway; and Mr. Bojangles, the epileptic Ragdoll and the ONLY pet that I have ever sought out from a breeder. I'm glad I did, too, because his medical issues would have likely caused him to have been euthanized by now otherwise. I am so thankful that I worked in an animal hospital when his seizures started!
Alright, everyone. Time to brag on your furbabies! 3...2...1... GO!

There's a fascinating graphic that really shows why the wreckage may never be retrieved, even though it's now pretty certain where to find it:

Me, too. Our husband is very fair with his time.

Ohmygosh, I'm so glad I'm not the only one with a name like that... we have a probably-shepherd-mix shelter mutt and we call him "moose-dog." I swear, something about him makes him look like he just loped out of the Great White North!
