RABBIT HERE RABBIT THERE

First there was one....
it might get lonely.... therefore there were two...
When the two gets together....Aahhhh....
I ended up with extra three.

Actually they kind of mated only once before 'my' Gora went missing. He had been roaming around my compound for about a month before he went missng. I still think someone saw him ,open my front gate and took him since there were no possible 'ways' for him to have escape. (the word 'my' is to imply that I'm doing all the necessary task of keeping a pet eventhough she's not my pet)
The litter is getting to big for mom's comfort. I kept seeing them being kicked around as they tried to suckle her.
Yesterday, yours truly managed to put together a new cage for them. Happy and satisfied that I was successful but the price I'm paying now is having rough and sore hands from handling the wire mess.
Today I'll let them sleep in their own compartment each.
TO AVOID FURTHER MULTIPLICATION. I haven't check on their gender but I've read somewhere that you'll need to separate them once they are about 4 weeks old or else...
yea.... they do mathematics

DOG INN

A Place for Dog Lover- Cottonwood Idaho Dog Park Inn
Dog Bark Park Inn is a bed & breakfast guesthouse inside the World's Biggest Beagle. Guests enter the body of the beagle from a private 2nd story deck. Some of the dog's decorative furnishings are carvings by Dog Bark Park chainsaw artists Dennis & Frances. Inside and up another level to the head of the dog is a loft room with additional sleeping space plus a cozy alcove in the muzzle.

At Dog Bark Park Inn sleeping in the doghouse is a good thing!

WHY DOGS CHEW

Chewing is a natural dog behavior. Historically, canine species chewed prey as part of the natural behaviors needed for survival. Today, packaged and prepared foods do not require intense chewing to prepare the meal for digestion. Dogs, however still crave chew objects to satisfy their natural urges.

Dogs chew to relieve stress and to occupy their time. Bored dogs often relieve stress by keeping busy with a chew object. Puppies passing through teething periods need chew objects to alleviate the stress and pain of teething.

When dogs are left to select the objects of their chewing pleasure, they often make inappropriate choices. Dogs acting on impulse destroy furniture, shoes and toys daily. You can't stop a dog from chewing, it's in his nature, but you can direct him to appropriate objects.

Select chew toys that exercise the dog's mouth. Nylon bones and other tough toys, processed large bones and floss-like toys make the best choices.

Avoid giving chew toys that resemble household items to your dog. Bones from your kitchen are also not recommended. They can splinter and damage his intestinal tract. Old shoes and towels look just like your new possessions, so don't confuse your dog by giving him your cast-offs.

Digestible rawhide chews can provide hours of enjoyment, but must be supervised. Be sure the chews are from a reputable manufacturer and have been properly processed. Don't let your dog drink large quantities of water after consuming a rawhide chew. The rawhide can expand in the stomach, causing irritation and serious illness, such as bloating. Use good judgment and limit rawhide chews to one goodie per session.

While your instinct may be to indulge your dog, limit his chew item stockpile to three to four choices. When you see him eyeing a "victim" like your new suede shoes or Aunt Milly's guest towels, direct him to one of his own chew toys and praise him. Giving too many choices may make him think that chewing is an acceptable behavior, regardless of the object chosen.

Encourage your dog to chew, but teach him the difference between right and wrong.

HERE COMES THE CATS

LUPI... my second generation persian who was born with deformed forearms.
BETTY... she's a he actually. Got stuck with the name because he responded to it everytime



CUPPYCAKE and MUFFINS.... my latest addition. My girls 'rescued' cuppy from their school while I 'rescued' Muffins from BDC's market

KECI.... someone 'dumped' her on my front gate when she was still a kitten. Most affectionate cat around. Likes to give hug and kisses.

OBO.... second generation persian, younger brother of Lupi

A C....eldest amongs the brothers. The fortunate one with the real persian look...Unfortunately at the time of this picture taken , he got his tail trimmed while sitting near to the burner in the kitchen


KAI.... another 'drops' on my front gate. He's also very affectionate with hugs and kisses.

ORANGIE.... A rescue from a trip to my girl's music lesson. He was 'meowing' under my parked car.
POKOYO.... youngest of the persian line. This is my 'baby'. The one who gets away with almost anything.Very alert to his name.

TIM.... it used to be SIM but eventually become Tim....and he's a she! The one that never leave the house. All the other cats seems to 'hit' on her everytime their path crossed. In the house thought, she's the bad 'guy' hitting mainly on the twins.



DUSTY.... Twin to A C but with shorter hair.He was the latest dog's victim. He went into hybernation for three days that I thought he was dead.


Hhmm cats... my favourite. They used to 'rule' the house (somehow by looking at the ruined furnitures, I think they still do). After years of enduring the bits of flying loose hair and the nasty smell of their 'existance', I had to reduce the my cats colony to just a dozen. The slow way as I have never given up any of my cats. I just refrain myself from bring home anymore strays.
My love for cats may seem endless as I'm still able to endure the task of cleaning up their 'accidents'. Unlike my girls who rather tolerate the smell than clean the 'mess'. Somehow they think its under the list of my job's discription. No doubt they too share the same love and passion for cats as well as all other animals.

THE ' ORIGINAL' PACK

Thats is the stud... UKU... The first dog I ever own that cost me money. A miniture doberman pincer. He rules the pack and the only female around.


Aha.. this is Bluemoon. He cost me.... a lot. Purebreed Dapple Dacshund imported from Australia (so I was told). I bought him as a mating partner for Baby tay. He doesn't seem to be doing much of that at all. My girls says that he must be 'ugly' in dogs' view as his mate doesn't seem to have the least interest in him....mating wise. My vet thinks hes a mutant because he has eyes of a different colour. Different shade of beautiful sky blue on each eye. Maybe that is the main reason why hes an outcast and least favoured amongs the pack. The bottom ranked.... the rejects.. sob.. sob
In human eyes thou, he is the best looking dog around.

Hair's brother... I got him from the pet shop after he was 'left' behind due of the skin problem he was having. I considered him a rescue that cost me RM300

Ah..the hairy one... Hair . A Terrier. He is the first long hair dog I ever own. Overcome by that excitment, I overlook to see that he has a receding chin. It thus give his that smily look at all times. Knowing how troublesome long hair can be makes me wonder what was I thinking of back then. No doubt he is a wonderful loving 'stupid' dog (meaning- hes obedient and quiet during the grooming session)Jealous for affection.Such a shame that I can't spare more individual time with him. I believe he deserve so much more than I can give.

The only female..Mama-Tay. Miniture dachshund. I will need to spay her inorder to keep my sanaty.

INTRODUCTION

By now everyone would realised that amongs my girls there are endless pets living in this house. Not really in the house but yeah, living amongs us. It used to be only cats..... which is still my favourite animal. Right now the collection has extended to dogs , rabbits and hamsters.
I have always have a soft spot for animals and there was never a time in my life where there was no pet around. During my school days , I was the one who would always bring home strays much to my mom's annoyance.
Having my own home now makes it easier for me to add on the number of strays that I tend to rescue now and then. There was a time when I had over thirty cats (I limited myself to cats only) Imagine that...30.... hhmm.. Its was really not much of a problem since I have a large compound and I did have a cage specially built for them. (maybe just the discomforing smell of having animals' poop around) I believed I made a large 'donation' to the vet too as all of the cats were neutered. More trouble ( or cats) if I didn't do that I'm sure.

Presently I have only a dozen cats left.... but... the dog's colony is getting bigger. It was five in the beginning... unfortunately one is a pair and that ended up with additional four. I managed to gave away three so far. I'm still looking for takers.... anyone who loves dogs and have the time to attend to their needs. Anyone?
I'm willing to keep them but they are such a noisy bunch I'm afraid the neighbours would object sooner or later. I must get that female spayed soon or else.....aahhhhhhh!!!
