30 Day Blog Challenge Finale - Days 27-30

Day 27-Pets Day

Meet my first baby:

This is Mike.

Michael Fitzpatrick Ramirez Dressler to be exact.

(Don't ask, haha... My brother in law helped create that full name somehow)

In 2003 Jon surprised me for my birthday with a sweet baby kitten. She was so sweet and adorable. I named her Mrs. Fancy. It was about 1 week later when we discovered Mrs. Fancy was a boy. haha! Somehow Jon picked the boy name, Mike. It stuck.

We had mike for 7 years. He was the best Cat you could ever ask for. Unfortunately he became ill last month with really bad bladder stones and we had to have him put to sleep. It was THE HARDEST decision we have ever made, but the doctors said he was in severe pain and could not be cured. :( I miss him every single day! It has been one month and i still think its sinking in.

He will always be my first baby!

Here he is being such a good big brother to his little sister Maddie Lou...

Meet Minnie.

Minnie Snowflake O'Ree Dressler.
Shes Momma's girl.

We adopted her from the shelter in early 2007.

She is the wild child of the family. Shes a moody lil' thing and is very particular about who she likes and who touches her. She's extra shy around strangers and has lots of really good hiding places around the house. She was Mike's wife ;). They were so in love, and it was so sweet to watch them together. She has been extra sweet and loving since he passed, I think she knows we need her extra loving!

Meet Maddie.

Madeline Pinka Louise Dressler.

Ahhh my sweet Maddie Lou.

She is the baby of the house. More spoiled than any Pup i've ever seen.

We got her in late 2007. She has filled a small part of that void I have from being Infertile.

She's a Mommas girl alot of the time, but has her Daddy wrapped around her paw!

She weighs 4lbs and sleeps in the bed, under the covers, with us every night.

She suffers from anxiety and hates being alone. She is far from an easy dog to handle, but I wouldnt trade her for anything!

and yes, beleive it or not this is her when she was little....

Meet Marley.

Marley Tampax Kramer Dressler.

We found Marley a few months ago at my Brother in laws apartment complex. He was teeeny tiny and stuck between a stairwell. He was all alone and hungry so we took him in.

We intended on finding Marley a home, but it hasn't happened.

He is wild wild wild. Oh, and he has an obsession with tampons. Un-used, yes... but still weird!

Day 30-a picture

My husband is enjoying hunting season, so he is at the farm tonight and through the weekend. When he arrived at the farm there was a stray dog there. He text me and told me it was the saddest thing he had ever seen. He said it had long hair that was matted up worse than I could imagine. I had no idea just how bad it was until he sent me this picture.

I cried when I saw this. Have you ever seen anything so sad? My heart is breaking for this dog. Jon said it is nice but scared. He has given it water and food, and managed to find a collar underneath all that fur and cut it off. It was pink so he is assuming it is a girl, but there was no tag. I called a local animal rescue and left a message. I pray they call me back tomorrow.
