Walter vs. The Grasshopper

Walter hates grasshoppers on the windows. He normally goes berserk when they appear, banging, ramming and even sometime a body slam into the window. This here is a very mild reaction to one showing up.

The Cat's Meow

My friend, Larissa, gave me one of those as-seen-on-TV things called the Cat's Meow. It seemed sort of silly, until I put batteries in it and turned it on.

It quickly got Walter's attention.

Angelina then wanted to check it out. 

Then old man Milton joined the fun.




And finally Dixie wanted to see what the fuss was about.

But that was all Dixie wanted to do. She didn't think it was any fun.

The dogs no longer try and play with the toy. Walter on the other hand is still fascinated by it and will randomly attack it even when it's not turned on. He's even started detaching the wand thing and running off with it as if it were an animal he slayed.

New Camera!

I got a new camera! I've been wanting to get a DSLR camera for awhile now, so I finally bit the bullet and got one, a Canon Rebel T3i. So as soon as it came in the mail I had to take pictures of my favorite test subjects, the animals. Hopefully I learn how to use it well and take some better pictures.

Addition to the family

Matthew and I have been talking about getting a cat for awhile now. After looking a various adoption centers and petfinder.com we didn't have any luck. So I started looking at craigslist, and we found a cat that fit our criteria. Welcome the newest member of our family, Walter!

He is eight months old, up to date on his shots, neutered and declawed in his front paws. His owner had a busy work schedule and felt like he wasn't getting the attention he deserved. We're happy to take him.

Walter is adjusting well to our house. He is very much a lap cat and though he is curious about the dogs, he still doesn't want the dogs near him. But as I am writing this, he is stalking Angelina around the house and Angelina is freaking out about it (of course).



Walter also likes to talk, a lot.

But I sort of have forgotten what it is like to own a cat. He woke me up this morning staring at me and the dogs from my bedside table.

And then there is the typical cat...sitting on my laptop while trying to post this.

He ended up deleting a lot of the post and adding his own flare. Thank goodness for the undo button.
