PLS, your dog and kitty are beautiful! Yes, our cats could be twins they are so black! I don't think you mentioned their names though. I love people's pet names. I always have such a hard time naming one. Then I think of a better one once I have done it!
Here is another shot of Beyonce hanging out by the fireplace and the presents. She has searched high and low and can't find one gift with her name on it! Now she's exhausted! She's also miserable because I tied the red ribbon on her for Christmas! She hates that or her collar! Poor baby! That's my son's legs!
She is about 4 years old and I also got her at the shelter. She had been there for about a year. I looked at all the cats and just kept going back to her, she was so pretty and big. She weighs about 15 pounds. She would sit by the door to the cage and look so longingly at me that I couldn't resist her. And we've been buds ever since!
