I adopted Aslan when he was 5. He enjoyed life with me from March 1997 – July 29 2009. Aprox 17 years old. I’ll return to write a proper Eulogy for him. Right now I just need to curl up with the other kitties and cry for a while.

I moved to Washington with my Persian cat, Aslan. Soon we met Joe with his parrots Jackie and Killian, and we became one big happy family. Within a year, Joe suggested that Aslan should have a friend. So in October of 2001 we visited Pet-Smart and adopted a beautiful Himalayan, who we named Sian in [...]
Here is our blue front amazon showing his Seattle Seahawk pride!
I have four indoor cats. One I’ve talked about a lot is Mekare, a four year old Persian who recently went through an illness (she’s better now). To prove to me she’s all better – she brought me a mouse this morning to my bedroom. A dead mouse. My four year old Persian 100% indoor [...]
Mekare is doing better. Her blood levels are getting better and she’s eating some catfood by herself. In fact, since I overslept a bit, Raven tells me that Mekare went downstairs and right up to her desk demanding to be fed! YAY good sign! Today she seems a little droopy because she’s recovering. She didn’t [...]
We’re settling into the new house. Most everything is arranged how we want it. Hardwood floors are everywhere! I have to wrestle the cats down soon and ‘cap’ their claws. I trimmed their nails last night and Sian had a FIT when I was trying to get to one of her toes. I really think she [...]

When I met husband Joe 5½ years ago I was introduced to his ‘flock’ which consisted of himself, Jackie – an Orange Wing Tipped Amazon Parrot, and Killian – a Blue Front Amazon Parrot. They all had moved up here to Washington from Florida. Quite the drive for two parrots! Joe has had Jackie all [...]
Below is Meeko (white 2 yrs old) and Aslan (Red 12 yrs old). The other day Meeko took it upon himself to give Aslan a bath. I was lucky enough to capture it!
It’s now dark and the trick-or-treaters should be showing up any minute. I didn’t go to any parties this weekend although Halloween is my favorite holiday. I never experienced trick-or-treating myself. For some reason, my parents never let me go. I was able to dress up, but not go out. I am the youngest of [...]
He’s one of our parrots. While reading I can hear Jackie wheezing and sneezing all night. It’s not cold, and his avi heater is turned up really high, so I know he has warmth. His health is declining, and my husband doesn’t want to admit he’s getting old. He’s been in J’s world since he was 2. [...]
