Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
-- Macbeth, Act 5, Scene 5
I have two dogs, Slim and Frankie and two cats Luke and Olive. I also have four guinea fowl but cannot tell them apart or their gender so I call them T.J. which stands for Tarzan Jane.
Many believe Slim and Frankie are boys but they are girls. Slim because she was a stray and her ribs were sticking out and she almost looked black because she was so covered with ticks. Frankie because my granddaughter named her.
Ours went to the bridge, but her name was Little Bit. She was an 85 pound flat coated retriever. A bird dog. She was the best pup ever and she lived for almost 13 years. We miss her so.
Our current cat (a rescue animal) came to us with the name of Jazzpur. I found that pewkey. He answers now to Jazz, Jazzicles and sometimes to psycho cat from hell.
We have had, in the past, Boulette (little meatball), Duc de Jus (duke of gravy), Buster, Gyra, Toonie, Goli, Lilly, Jolie, and currently, Ule and Schatzie.....these were all boxers, some rescues.
There used to be 9 of us inside kitties, now there's 4 left: Brian, Dolly Simon and Seal. Our outside ferals: Zelda, Foz, Smiley, Mr. Black, Tabs, LB, LT, CC, Weezer, Chet and Lil' Mum.
The cats are Horizon, Tripod SissyCat, Little Girly, Dansig, Charismatic Enigma SissyCat, and Link. Little Girl's dog is Coda, and Grandma's dog is Lulu. '
Current cat is Lola, previous cat was Angel. Dogs in the past (one at a time only) have all been called Max apart from Ace who was our first dog when I was six. A cat we had at the same time was Ginger.
My girls Lulu and her daughter Mollie are long haired chihuahuas. Mister Kitty is my big boy feline fiend. He is quite naughty most days. Our daughter and her hubby live with us and they have three long haired chihuahua's, Loki, Thor and Finn. Zach has a cat Daphne. He is real sweet and Rebekah and Zach care for Leo our youngest daughters big boy. He is the protector of the small pups.

ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day and week. ♥
It is a very sad time when our pets cross that rainbow bridge. I know you miss Little Bit.

ReplyDeleteLOL for "psycho cat from hell".

ReplyDeleteMost unusual names ever! Love boxers.

ReplyDeleteWe had 14 barn cats and now are down to two. Loved them all so much and really pamper this last pair.
DeleteWe are pet less at the moment and will probably stay that way for a while.
ReplyDeleteI cannot image ever being pet less. Bet you will give in and add a new family member. Let us know.
DeleteNo more pets for us.
ReplyDeleteSo you say.
DeleteJust have two. Callie the dog and Minnie the cat. They are both calico in color, why the name of the dog.
ReplyDeleteI feel like I know Callie and Minnie quite well from all your blog posts.
DeleteThe cats are Horizon, Tripod SissyCat, Little Girly, Dansig, Charismatic Enigma SissyCat, and Link. Little Girl's dog is Coda, and Grandma's dog is Lulu.

Your cat names are awesome! Lost my Grandma David cat this year. Named her David as a newborn with her sibling Goliath then found our she was a she.
DeleteMy two cats...brother and sister...are named "Remy" and "Shama".
ReplyDeleteThey turned 18 years of age on 4th November, 2020.
Wow, 18! Are your cats doing well? My Slim dog is 15 and starting to show her age.

ReplyDeleteI so remember Angel and always hoped she would come home again.
DeleteAngel was a boy and I stopped hoping the day his picture fell down off the wall. I took it as him saying goodbye.
