As I was holding Licorice today, Butters jumped up and attacked her, clamping on to her neck. He's been aggressive lately. I've noticed a pattern. He seems to do it in the winter months. He stalks her, pounces on her, and sometimes mounts her. Both are fixed. But apparently she could still give off a smell. Sometimes it's territorial. If he sees her sitting on the rug by the door, he'll go after her. I'm frustrated, though. I play referee a lot, but it'a her I worry about. She's being hypervigilant now.

We have sort of the same thing. Charlotte will see a cat or skunk outside and attack Zoë. She just gets a look in her eyes that everyone knows is trouble. Fine, lady, go take it out on Luke if you want to be tough. Oh right, he'd clean your clock. Bozo cats.

I wish she's clean his clock. That's part of the problem. He knows she's a wimp and doesn't want to be bothered.

Yeah, unfortunately Zoë doesn't want to seriously brawl. She'll mix it up with Luke, chasing and all, but she doesn't want to actually fight. I'm especially protective of Zoë, so I'm hyper vigilant for one of the others going after her.

Whenever the Boss is travelling, she asks me to send pictures of the kids. The Little Shithead loves sitting on the heating vent—the only one of the three that does—but it causes him to yawn a lot. Managed to catch him mid-yawn, making him dumber looking than usual (he's actually pretty clever, but he's got a dumb face).

Brilliant! my collie that we lost last year would spend hours and hours in one of those and was fascinated by catching drips of the edge.

Scooby won’t go near it apart from to drink it but Boo loves it especially when you play fetch with her. she gets too hot in this weather so she runs after the ball and brings it back via a quick dip.

I used to love watching Mac play in the pool.

The two months between when our girl Pagan died and we adopted Charlotte and Zoë were interminably long. I can't imagine a home without furry little fuckers underfoot.
