Travel Tips

Little Miss Kitty
This is Little Miss Kitty. She's 9 and I've had her since she was 2 weeks old. I had to bottle feed her after she was rescued from a hotel fire dowtown. We've been joined at the hip and she moved around this city with me 7 times. Since day one I've had her around large dogs so she absolutly loves them. Even though she has lots of people that love her when I'm not around she still gets pissed at me when I go travelling.

Jake is my parents dog who lives in Arizona. My mom was at Safeway one day when this lady was giving away puppies outfront. He was only 6 weeks old and barly had his eyes open for that long. He's have lab and half boxer. He's a big lover and will kiss you all over. He also uses his front legs alot in a jabbing motion like a boxer. It's pretty interesting I never knew that's where they got their name from.

So if you saw my Oatman page you would have read my bit on the burrows that roam the streets wild. This is just one of them. There are a pack of about 12 and they stroll through town atleast once a day. You can go into the shops along the corral and buy carrots to feed them. This one is named Sunshine and she almost walked right into the store I was in. The shop keeper came out and gave us carrots to feed her. Apparently the shopkeeper also can make Sunshine sing by making some funky throat noise. It did'nt work this time though. I'm just going to take her word for it.

SammyJack is my sister's dog and my nephew. He was found on the beach here in the city abondoned. He had been abused and had fur missing on his body from where someone had a harness on him way too tight. At a year old when we got him he was dehydrated and starving with every bone in his body cleary showing. He was afraid of everything and everyone. So, we did our best and nursed him back to health and now he's 8 yrs. old and just a big lover and the biggest sweetheart in the whole world. He loves everyone and is really great around little kids and my cat who adores him.
He's half pitbull, the other half we think is greyhound and german shepard.

Kitty LOVES Jack. I don't know if he can say the same about her but he definately tolerates all the kisses and ear cleaning she gives him.

Kiwi is a 10 year old wire haired daucshound. She's absolutly obsessed with her rubber ball. I don't think the glowing eyes in the picture is the camera flash, i think it's her passion, she goes a little nuts when that ball is around.

I found this gopher at the beach near Santa Cruz. I don't think it even knew I was there snapping away photo after photo. Blind as a bat this funny little creature just ket on digging and digging . I admire it's work ethic. Cutie pie
