Mountainspring,

I saw these cats on TV.  I like the one who says "Oh, Johnson". 

I'm pretty sure they're real.  I can watch those videos over and over and laugh every single time.

A few months back my mom went to visit my brother.  The dynamic of the house shifted a little.  My precious little Yorkie was missing her and apparently went to her room and went to sleep.  It was after dark and I'd had the back door open to let in fresh air.  About a half hour passed before I missed him.  I had been by the door all the time it was open and hadn't seen him go out, so I was sure he was in the house.   So I looked in all the places he would normally lie down, and called his name quietly.  No response.  I went from room to room calling his name quietly.  No response.  I made the rounds  several times and began to get panicked.  Finally in total panic,  I yelled out his name.  This time he heard me and came from (I think) her room  all rumpled and sleepy eyed, saying, Whut mom?  Whut?  That was the first I realized his hearing was impaired.  ((((((((((((((((((((He's my best buddy.))))))))))))))))))))))

Hi TT......  I got a little puppy yorkie in February for my youngest daughters birthday.  She was the cutest sweetest little thing, and she would lay right beside us, so still.  She turned out to have some major medical issues and we couldn't keep her but not too long afterwards I got my daughter a real sweet toy maltese.  Don't you just love little puppies!

[teartracks]

Hi MS,

So sorry for those medical problems your little Yorkie has. 

Yes, I do love them.  I REALLY love my little buddy even though he has alligator breath.

A word of caution, get your Maltese used to having her teeth brushed and her paws massaged so that you can cut her nails as she grows up.  I didn't do that.  I now regret it.  Puuuuieeee!

So good to see your spirits up and read your posts.

Me too.  She would circle and circle then fall.  The vet said she had brain damage and said the kindest thing to do was to put her down.

My older maltese won't let us touch her paws but we the younger one does.  I brush them both at night when I'm watching TV.  As long as I just barely move the brush across them, they'll sit there all content.  It takes forever that way but gets the job done.  I also found that after bathing them if I will put conditioner on them they are much easier to brush.  My little pom won't let me brush him at all, and I rarely find a knot in his fur.  I guess it's because it's straight.

Lest I gave the impression that I have developed some unique "doggy sign language", let me clarify.  He has cataracts tool  So to help on both fronts, I found that hand and arm waving helps him understand what I'm saying.

CB that was so cute.  He's such a sweet little bear.

I found another one... but it's not animals...  (off topic alert, forgive me! )  but it's a recording made in Ireland of the song You Raise Me Up.  Really beautiful song.
