cafeful....now.....three can turn into.....

 

After our cat Matilda of 21 years passed last Spring we took a little time off. After our summer vacation we adopted “The Hissy Sisters”. Now after a few month they are part of the family and are actually quite nice and reasonably well behaved kittens.
I present Gigi and Oona: (sorry a lot of picture)

 

Twinsies...

 

That lovely shot for some reason reminds me of Bond films ?

 

Hahaha! Perhaps. I love your dog posts, by the way...

 

Wow, really is. Beautiful pup. Gotta love a Boxer. Kaya and Boogie were our firsts, but passed at 5 and 6 respectively due to cardiomyopathy. Still miss them.

 

Yes " I have been expecting you" comes to mind

 

What is the card all about

Don't get them wet!

 

Or feed after midnight!

 

Welcome to Niner, it's great to add another Boxer to OF's best thread. So sorry about Kaya and Boogie. Bad enough to lose one dog at such a young age, but to have to wait for that second shoe to drop, that must have been unbearable.

We went through a scare with Zelda last year when she started to have fainting episodes. Based on the symptoms, it seemed overwhelmingly likely to be the Boxer ARVC. Even the cardiologist started talking to us about possible treatment right away after hearing about the fainting. But after an echocardiogram and Holter monitor, she was amazingly cleared. Her heart is fine, and strong. The tentative diagnosis is a bit sketchy, but since we've ruled out the most dangerous possibility, it's easier to live with the occasional episode, and actually things seem better now. She has only fainted once in the past six months. She is our third Boxer, and our other two had good life spans.

Here she is with our Ridgeback, Opus, who thinks Zelda is his mother. And also a sunbathing shot from last summer during a backpacking trip.

 

Old pic of Mac with a poop on the floor. Wait that isn’t poop it’s Timmy!

 

So glad to hear that Zelda is not dealing with something as serious as ARVC.

 

My old pal has taken on a whole new lease of life and all thanks to B12 supplement, knocked years off him and the regular dog walkers I meet all comment on how good he is looking.
Perhaps I should try some but i'm afraid I may end up lifting my leg at a lamp post

Enjoying a lot of attention from one of my girls,

 

My dog gave me a Valentine's Day card today!

 

Working is hard .......

 

Sweet kitty. I also notice you have a Tube Cube and a nice Schiit stack.

 

yup
Desktop system. my ifi nano DAC just died, to be replaced by an Asgard.

 

If anybody noticed, one of the Shiit stack is a Mani phonostage. I am crazy enough to have a turntable next to my desk.
