ER makes Rachel and Dottie sleepy.

I just thought that she and Dottie were so cute that I had to get a pic.


And that my friends was Thursday.

Two Days of Snowy Carnage!

The city of Toledo had the trucks out and running starting tuesday as soon as the snow began which was early in the morning I am told. I was sleeping.

Things looked grusome from the go. Most of the side walks were getting deeper as the roads were getting worse.

I am thankful in weather like this that I do not drive a bus.

With roads like this the bus may have been a smarter option. Remember that if you are sliding into the curb turn your tires so they will roll over the curb not slide into it sideways. If you choose sideways this is what happens to your ride.

This morning the whole neighborhood was out side digging themselves out. I guess this is how this little one is helping dad.

We romped through the park, snow angels and all, to shake away the winter grays and replace them with rosy cheeks.

I thought that these guys should have flown south by now.

I thought this was a good depth gauge for the Big Blast as the news has chosen to call our little snow emergency.

SNOW DAY!!!

I took the blizzard as a chance to kick around the snow. Man it was cold out there!

You have not lived....

Until you have been to the Toledo Cat Show!

Every owner and breeder has an elaborate spread.

Everyone wants their kitty to strut its cute stuff.

Kinky Fur.

No Fur.

Whiskers Galore!

This is an adorable old lady and her non-pedigreed cat "Frisky". We met them both at the Toledo Cat Show. "Frisky" was there to be part of the household cat competition, As in cats that don't cost $1000 with an impressive bloodline. (Shouldn't you only be using big dollar signs and the word bloodline when handling livestock?) Frisky had won several awards and was the pride and joy of this woman's and her husband's life. I met her husband in the Paws and Whiskers adoption aisle where he was helping people fall in love with cats, if they weren't already. He was just as adorable as she was and looked twice as old. Thank you Frisky, Paws and Whiskers and the happy old couple who brought a sense of humanity to the ridiculousness of the day.

This is the husband of the cute little old lady with Frisky.

This was one of the most fun days I have had in a while. These people were all great and loved to show you how special their kitty is. Of course there were crazy cat people everywhere but I think the really scary ones stayed home because no one hissed at me and the camera and no one smelled like pee. At least no one I met. Rachel, John, Garret and I all have kitties on the brain and now must fight the urge to sell all our stuff to buy designer cats. (average designer cat price at this show, $900)
So next year when they have to Toledo Cat Show you have to go it is amazing.
