Loved and lost

Years ago somewhere around 2002 or 2003, I stumbled into

rabbit rescue. This little guy is Blue- cuz of his blue eyes. This cute

4 pounder is 1 of 7 that we rescued in one bunch. The horror these

little guys must have seen,but lived through.

I looked into their little faces, my heart just went out to these little ones,

I couldn't say no........

They had a hard time excepting people, went we first got them,

we couldn't even pat them, they would freak so bad

I thought they were going to have a heart attack.

This little gal is Dutchus - This big 2 pounder in another one

of the 7 bunch. She was such a love.
This little guy is Spanky - another one of the 7 bunch. He had Blue eyes too.

This little gal is cinnamon- another one of the 7 bunch. She was meaner than a junk yard dog. We thought she was pregnant, but she wasn't, it was just her personality. She seemed to have PMS 24 -7. Once you got past the outside, she was a sweet heart.This little gal is Drake - She ran in front of my van one night

on my way home. She ran right up to us.

She was alittle head strong, but cute.

This little gal is Big B /cookies. She is another 1 0f the

7 bunch. We found a home for Big B

and Dutchus/little B. And No the B did not stand for bunny,

We heard they were very mean. After a year we got them

back. I expected teeth and nails.

They were sweet as can be. Think the dogs was

the issue. I didn't know these people had

alot of dogs. We were more careful about

the people that got a rabbit.

There was 2 more to the 7 bunch. I can't find pic's .

Mandy, so sweet - She has a nice home in berlin NH.

I see her owner alot, they give me updates.

Buckwheat -He was a fighter. A tough nut.

Fall Cleaning 09

This is fall cleaning, everyone got a flea bath.

Chief doesn't mind a bath , he likes water.

Patrick didn't like his bath ,but he didn't fight to much.

He really doesn't like the hair dryer.
Cubby on the other hand just hates his bath.
He fought hard.
He is a poutty puss !

He reeallly doesn't like the hair dryer.

Chief got out of his shirt, some how , we was busy with one of the cats.

So we got him in a blanket, then he was happy.

Cubby --- cleaning after his bath.

He is a brat!!!!

Patrick --- likes the heat from the hair dryer.

He is a poutty puss toooo!

All that work , and it didn't work, they still have fleas!!!!

So much for flea shampoo......

Birds of a feather 09

This is Cloie, My sister's bird.This is Pepper, my sister's other bird. This one was in a car accident

on the way home from Dover,NH.

I thought he should be named CRASH.

So Thank God everyone is OK,

including the bird.

Cloie and Pepper.

Cloie likes to hang upside down in the cage.

AAAHHHHH!

Loving study time 09

Our 20 lb. ,5 1/2 yr.old cat Patrick, just loves study time.

He purrrr's the whole time.

Patrick James tries it on his own.
Then he takes a nap.

Then study time again.

He has always liked doing study time with mag.

I think he is near sighted.

Just joking!

The end of summer.09

I wanted a challenge. So before these little birds left

for the winter, I tried to get a good pic.

These little Hummingbirds are very hard to photograph.
This one is still in flight. There was a bunch of them fighting
for the feeder.

This one is a little blurry, I tried to get close. Most of the pic's I had nothing

but the feeder in the pic.
