Cats & Dogs

This is Toby. He is a cool cat! He adopted us when we first moved to Columbus in 2000. He was a chubby boy there for a while but as he has aged he developed hypertyroidism which puts his metabolism in high gear and he has become very thin. Hmmmm....why couldn't that happen to me? Anyway, he wakes me up every morning by putting his paw on my eyelid and then gives me sweet licks on the forehead. He has lost some teeth which has given him a real bad case of bad breath. He is always ready to claim my lap whenever the opportunity arises. He was on the last truck with us and he was a trooper! He just hung out and took everything in stride. Such a cool cat!


This is Cocoa. My pooch. She is the best! Sweet and loving. Always follows me wherever I go. We adopted her 5 years ago or so from the Humane Society. We know nothing of her past or what breed she is. It really doesn't matter...we're just so happy she is with us. She traveled with us on both trucks and absolutely hated the last one. Too rough and loud for her pampered taste. If she can find a spot in the sun, she will lie there for hours. She loves to go for car rides every chance she gets, which is nearly everytime I leave the house. She traveled with me when I was a courier and loves hanging her head out the window to get a whiff of whatever is in the air. She is truly my second best friend (my husband is my first!).
