OT: I love my pet

Loki and Odin

Indy and Odin, buddies already.

Loki and Odin look like my daughter’s cats, Tux and Bandit.

Comeds told me this picture was a little disturbing, because his aunt wore the same outfit as Lucy this year.

Pets are loyal good friends! Hardest thing to do is let go of them when the time comes, it’s like losing a family member…

No offense to Lucy, she looks great, but she doesn't wear that as well as Aunt Patsy. And no, I'm not being "weird" she's an aunt by marriage, not blood. Though who am I kidding, with legs like hers not sure it matters.

I can think of several family members I wouldn't miss.

Last year we couldn't keep Whiskey the cat out of the Cristmas tree. This year's we were able to put up unbreakable ornaments, at least. A year and a half and he's already on a diet.

Rough end of the year for us. We lost my son's Chihuahua mix, the beginning of Nov. Then lost my German Shepherd Greyhound mix after 14 years the middle of Nov.

Brought my girl into the office today

Made a sign for those afraid of big dogs

So why does this happen? I though our cats and dogs were kind of color blind, as scientists tell us they don't have the same color receptors in their eyes as we do. But, our Whiskey thinks differently....

We get those little 1 inch foam balls for our cats. They love them and chase them all over, playing fetch with us, of course, when they feel like it. These balls are in a variety of colors, otherwise identical.

Whiskey only wants to play with the green ball. The last couple of days, he's gone through the cat toys and discarded other colors to find the green one. He brings that one, and only that one, into the bedroom and meows for playtime.

Why? Green is kind of in the middle of the visible spectrum. And, Snowflake the Siamese girl shows no preference.

I thought cats liked the green spectrum.
