Thriving...


Rufus was on his tower this morning, keeping track of all movements, inside and out.  I know I am biased, but the boy is lookin' good...



While he has put on weight since we first got him, his fur has gotten thicker, longer, and more luxurious.  I am crediting a healthy diet, no stress, grooming, and nearly constant petting.  And, how could you not be petting this snuggly boy?

When we first got him, there was no mane.  The fur on his back was thin, short, and felt like straw.  Now, it is thicker, longer, and feels silky.  His belly fur is so full and luxurious.

This was from when we first met him...


Yeah, that is the same boy.

Look'n Good.. Our Cat was a bit "Scruffy" too when found him at a Tag Sale-- That was about 10 Years ago.. It didn't take long before his Fur became the "Silky Soft" Fur it is Today-- He is now about 18 Years old and the Vet. has just recently given him a Clean Bill of Health..
He can still outrun our Yorkie when he has to-- Our other Dogs pay no intention to him..

They add a lot to our lives - it is good to know that we make a better life for them, too. They can tell us in their behavior, but it is reassuring to see it in their healthy appearance, as well. 18 is well into "the golden years." Wishing you many more.
