Happy Birthday Marcel!

Ashley's love is now ONE YEAR OLD!
Happy Birthday Marcel. . . . wishing I had a cute picture to insert here!
In honor of Marcel (and all adopted animals) please make an effort to visit this link on a daily basis to help out other animals who haven't had the fortune yet to be adopted into such a loving home!

Speaking of cats . . . Bella has been hunting again.

Last week, digging around for a sweatshirt to put on in the morning (definitely last week when the temps weren't always so high) I picked up my favorite fleece to find a very large alligator lizard residing in it. (thank goodness I found it before putting it on . . .ewwwwwwwwwwww)
anyhow, I took it to the front porch and coaxed it out. Days later we found another one, this without his tail (she like removing them) trying to move around the dining room. Randy cornered him and put him out.
This morning I found a very large alligator lizard tail, but no lizard . . . where, pray tell, is the rest of him? Bella isn't saying. Bella did however have a good time hunting mosquitoes this evening- she will keep us safe from West Nile virus- thanks B

Thanks for the birthday wishes! Marcel has a very exciting day planned... he just finished eating some salmon pate, is now enjoying a luxurious bath, and plans to catch some rays in the window and some zzz's in front of the A/C! What a life...

Yes, the lizards seem to know where their home is and come back to it. We had proof of that around the house some weeks ago. They are good creatures to have around and we would not think of harming them. As for the mosquito's and west nile virus, I hope you are not giving Bella too much credit. Mom

I would love to borrow Bella for while... the "garden mice" are wreaking havoc again in the birdseed sock to the point where our sweet little finches are about to go hungry again.

Imagine my pride when visiting child exclaimed in glee "look at the mousie" when a roof rat commuted from one neighbor's yard to another on the lines over our yard! Always bringing joy to the children... that's our goal!
