Kissie and her 7 kittens (1980's)

This is our Kissie.  We had her bred and she delivered 7 kittens.  Laurel sat with her nose in the box as they were born,.  Kissie was a wonderful mommy and fed them all.  We sold them for $100 ea and kept one.  We named her Misty as she was a blue point.  She was the best kitty we ever had.  Kissie had surgery and no more litters.  We did let Misty have two litters but she was not as good a mommy.  These are wonderful memories.                                                                

Our first puppy Rikki as in Rikki Tikki Tavi

This is Rikki, our first dog....years ago.  We had to house train her in the snow, but she loved the snow, so no problem.  It was just cold for us to take her out.  She was a Keeshond.  Loved that dog! Oh, and threw in one picture of our front yard in the snow.
