off and away!

… yet again. Summer really makes me wonder why I even pay rent. Apparently it’s just a place to store a bunch of crap and a play place for my cats. My dad’s house could do that! 🙂 But really, I do love traveling. A lot! And this weekend we are off to I-OWA for another...

zeus + sigmund … best friends

When Angela contacted me a few weeks back and told me about Zeus and Sigmund and how they were cat and dog but best friends, I got super excited. As you’ve no doubt been able to tell, I’m a cat girl. I love LOVE dogs and really enjoy working with them because they...

a golden beauty named Shelby

Last weekend I had the amazing fortune to meet a fantastic woman named Susan and her beautiful, beautiful dog, Shelby. I was at their home for just a few hours but even from that, I learned {and felt} that their bond together was absolutely incredible. I thought one...
