Don’t break your foot. Your cat will judge you for it. Severely.

Hey guys! Naomi here. As some of you may know, our Gena extraordinaire had a bad fall last week and broke her foot. While she was initially told she wouldn’t need surgery, she ended up needing it, and that’s where she is right now. Her surgery was this morning bright and early! She was in good spirits and I’m sure she’ll love seeing all your messages. Luckily she doesn’t need her foot to write amazing books, but she’ll need her rest. Cookie is there to make sure she gets it. 😉

Rescue animals

If you’re looking to add a forever friend to your life this holiday season, consider adopting from a local shelter. As the fur-mom of 6 dogs and 3 cats—all rescues—I can say this with great confidence: Rescues are the best!!!!

Each of my fur-babies needed some extra love in the beginning, but they gave it back times twenty. At first, *every member of our crew was scared but kindness and patience soon won them over—a prize worthy of the extra effort. (*Baby Thor is the exception. He was found on the streets and he feared nothing and no one and came into the house demanding all the pets, all the food, and all the attention.) I’m not sure the satisfaction of knowing we’ve helped an innocent creature find a home, a family, and a safe place to rest can be accurately conveyed.

Let me share a small selection of wonderful rewards we’ve reaped by sharing our home with our rescues.

After my hysterectomy, Boots remained by my side at all times. If I hobbled somewhere, he kept pace with me, ensuring I made it safely.

When I experienced a devastating loss, Cookie often used me as a napping spot. As I held him, my grief lessened, overcome by love.

Anytime I need cuddles, the dogs have me covered. Literally. At times they’ve draped me from chest to toes.

Both the dogs and the cats provide pure comedy. The zoomies. The murder of innocent toys. The adorable whining for treats. The howling along with a siren. The looks of judgement from our feline matriarch Lulu. Fun never stops!

Most recently we rescued a kitten born on our land. She is roughly 4 months old, and she had a sibling we didn’t catch in time. When we trapped her, she was terrified. Hissing, clawing, spitting, growling. In the ensuing week, after she realized we weren’t going to harm her, she morphed into a purring machine desperate for affection. Now she’s living her best life with new friends, and I got to help her with that. Oh! The joy such knowledge brings!!!

Have the animals occasionally peed and pooped on my floors? Yes. Have they stunk up a room with their farts? Also yes. But dang it, they’re still the best, and I highly recommend. 10 stars.
