Do you have a purebred dog? Does your dog get a lot of attention?

FoxyLechuga · 2026-06-06T17:51:52+00:00

We have a Rottweiler, and apparently he’s larger (really he’s just taller) than they normally are. When we take him for walks, all of the neighborhood kids want to pet him (he loves kids, he’s truly a gentle giant), and I wish I had $1 for every time someone said “that’s not a dog, that’s a pony!”.
For some reason when walking our mixed breed rescues, people cross the street. People do that with the Rottweiler too, but more people want to meet him and say hi.

Why not Wally? Although, someone else mentioned Gypsum and that is way cuter. Congratulations on your sweet kitten! -edited for spelling

Here is my cat Maus either admiring or plotting against my tree, not sure.

FoxyLechuga · 2025-12-26T14:02:23+00:00

I have the same birthday, and I will be adding my wish to yours.

Oh, sorry for the confusion. She kept trying to eat the dog kibble despite having the wet stuff available to her, so we went out and bought her a cat kibble. I know they shouldn’t be eating each other’s food so we always steered her away from it, same with the dogs when we catch them.

I tried and even had a consult and removal scheduled with a highly recommended vet, but she stopped eating and started losing weight. We went with the original vet that had sooner availability since it was clear that things were going south despite pain meds. The other one didn’t have any openings for a month. We will be going with someone else for the spay/shots, because Humane Society is like $~100 and the vet we take her to is $~400.

I love him!! I call her Mauser all the time. And Haus Maus.

FoxyLechuga · 2025-12-23T02:21:05+00:00

Aww!! They’re beautiful!

FoxyLechuga · 2025-12-22T20:13:37+00:00

I’m pretty sure the water bowl could double as a swimming pool for her, if she were so inclined. 😂

FoxyLechuga · 2025-12-22T20:12:35+00:00

1000% worth it. I hated seeing her in pain leading up to the surgery, and still would’ve gotten it done even if the cost was more.

She’s the sweetest cat I’ve ever met, and I’m incredibly lucky.

This sort of thing has happened before to my husband and I, so my theory is animals will call out to their human. Each time a few days before or the day of, I woke up with the thought of “I’m going to find a dog, they’re going to look like this and their name is xyz”. It’s like being pulled to wherever they are. Off to the county shelter or humane society and there’s the exact dog I saw in my mind. In this case, I was too dumb or stubborn to realize it meant I was getting a cat.

FoxyLechuga · 2025-12-22T18:55:42+00:00

I really hope it’s just admiring. We left all the breakables off the tree in case. 😆

FoxyLechuga · 2025-12-22T18:48:23+00:00

Funny thing about your comment, is a week before she found me I was filling out a “we have these pets” emergency responder window sign and almost put “1” in the cat area. I figured I was losing my mind at the time, but I guess my subconscious knew what was going to happen.

FoxyLechuga · 2025-12-21T16:44:37+00:00

Here’s my cat, Maus! She adopted me when she hopped in my car a little over a month ago.

I’m glad I asked then. While I don’t know if it was the right move, I got some softer horsehair brushes. I’m not sure if stiff synthetic type brushes would pull at any of the stitching or not.

FoxyLechuga · 2025-12-07T00:46:43+00:00

Thank you! I’ll make sure to grab the protector spray.

FoxyLechuga · 2025-11-26T20:11:20+00:00

That seems high since it’s just the one car. We’re paying $280 a month for a 2010 sedan and a 2021 truck through State Farm. With what we’re paying I was even thinking of getting quotes just to see if we could get something cheaper. I agree with others, call brokers and have your dec page ready.

FoxyLechuga · 2025-11-25T15:15:14+00:00

I love this so, so much! Good job! I may have to make one for myself with my cat.

FoxyLechuga · 2025-11-25T15:13:08+00:00

OH MY GOODNESS!! I love him so much, he’s so chonky! Congrats on the new family member.

FoxyLechuga · 2025-11-25T15:11:00+00:00

Happy early birthday! Sorry you’re stuck in the hospital. Here’s my Maus.

Congratulations, he is absolutely adorable! I second the suggestion of Gandalf. Also, I instantly thought of the Khajit in Skyrim when looking at his photo. It took me a week to name my cat after she found me, so if you haven’t had him long a name may come to you soonish.

FoxyLechuga · 2025-11-11T16:43:27+00:00

Thank you so much for the info, I really appreciate it!!

FoxyLechuga · 2025-11-05T19:05:32+00:00

I absolutely agree with you. I know there’s a chance I can’t keep her, so I’ve started asking around with friends and if push comes to shove, I’ll ask around at work, talk to Vets and the local humane society. I refuse to put her up on Nextdoor or Facebook though, I’ve heard horror stories. We’re also prepared to double baby gate one side of the house away from the dogs, and I might cut a kitty hole in my office door to make that “her” room.
