Meet Nissa - TSC

I have another sister. Her name is Nissa and she's 4. That makes me the big sister even though Nissa is bigger than me. Mom says her people died and she and her sisters didn't have anywhere to go. Nissa is really sad & quiet; she doesn't want to play with me right now. I'm showing her where she can go potty. We go on walks together but she is kinda slow. Mom says I'm too fast so we can help each other.

TSC - New sibling

Mom got me a sibling. She's a funny looking dog that hisses. I think I like her but I don't know if she likes me yet. Mom said that I need someone to play with when I'm left alone sometimes. I don't think my new furry sister wants to play yet though. Mom got her from the same shelter I came from. She doesn't have a name yet. What do you think?

TSC - Kill a Pit Bull Day???

Why would anyone want to hurt my cousin Titan and all like him?

Cousin Titan with my Auntie Bren @ www.pibblesnme.com

Mom tells me that there are people who want to hurt pit bills and black cats on Halloween. Gladly, there are people who want to keep them safe. Some shelters are not adopting out because of this threat. That means no loving families for a whole month!

Not are breeds are good for all people. Mom said she picked me because I'm so small and cuddly. (Actually I picked her!) Auntie Bren is an advocate for doggies like Titan. He is a rescue like me and I'm glad he has a loving mom.

I'm pretty smart. But I still can't figure out why people want to hurt us. We are loyal and protective. Cats are magical and they have 9 lives. We provide companionship and health benefits to our human families. May we all be safe. Woof.

TSC - Trip to the vet

I went to the vet today to get my 1 month shot and to get checked for icky stuff like worms. I was scared of the lady in the white coat but Mom was there the whole time. I have to take some medicine but I'm otherwise in good health. Although, there was some talk about spades. What do playing cards have to with the vet??

TSC - I got my hair did

So Mom takes me to Petsmart to get prettied up. Well, I'm already pretty but Mom says I need a good bath so she can cuddle with me. I was scared at first but Mom was outside watching me. My fur was too badly matted so it all had to come off.

And so it begins...

Right side all done

Zero-suit Samus

Mom said it will grow back *sigh*

The nice lady put bows in my fur. Don't you just laaaahve me daaaaahling?

The Samus Chronicles - I'm home!

She came back! I'm so happy but I'm still a bit shy. And that microchip hurt like the dickens! The ride to my new home was long but I was comfortable in a carrier. There's a huge backyard for me to play in. My new family has 3 humans. I think I know which one Mom is. Loud noises and sudden moves frighten me. I was without a home for quite some time.

After I explored inside a bit, I was taken for a walk outside. Then I had a bath. Mom said I was really smelly. I dried off and went to sleep with Mom & Dad.

Cheese!

Chillaxin'

Oh my name? Samus is a bad-ass female video game character. People thought she was a boy until she took off her armor.

I'm getting to know one of my pack members

That bath did wonders. Now I'm tired

I was adopted from the Baltimore County Animal Shelter. On 5/26, a few people came to look at me including Mom. When she left my fence to go talk to my sister 2 pens down, I called for her to come back. Two days later, I went to the vet. Running the streets caused me to have a slight infection but I'm all better now. The vet said I'm about 4 yrs old. Well a lady never tells her true age, right?! Dad keeps calling me a cockapoo. Isn't that some kind of bird? My fur coat is so curly it must be poodle though. No matter, I know  Mom loves me.
