We have a breaking news announcement. After 8 years and 3 different vets, we have found out that Tuna is a male cat. Tuna was an apartment cat. He came to us from Kid 1’s friend who adopted him, asked us to watch him, and then did not pick him up. He has received the

Call Mom
Having finished the final pass at Maggie on Thursday, I took the weekend off to play Satisfactory, an old favorite game. I had my phone on silent while playing. I walked away to get some evening decaff and when I came back, I saw Kid 2 called. I checked the family group chat. Kid 2

Sookie Went to the Vet
Sookie needed a vet appointment. The arthritis in her knees has been progressing, so we needed to bring her in for a check. She got her vaccines, flirted with the vet and our awesome vet tech, got pets, and once it was determined that taking X-ray in her current state would be painful for her,

Sookie and Tuna
Is Sookie still alive? Yes, she is. Thank you for asking. Sookie is getting on in years. She mostly sleeps. Her hearing is gone. Voice commands don’t do it anymore, so now we have to communicate by hand signals and pats. However, she is living her best life. She has all the treats and pillows

Hello. I small dog Coco. Someone threw me in a dumpster. I’m a girl. Kid 1 is my pet mom. I stay with grandparents now because Austin rental rates are insane and they are trying to find the right place. I have the best time.
The Shepherds and the Puppy
It has been mentioned numerous times that there is not enough German Shepherd coverage on the blog. By the way, whenever I post this picture, someone always gets upset at the fire hydrant on the lawn. This was taken at the vet boarding kennel. It’s a prop fire hydrant for the dogs. As was shown

Many updates on random books topics including print, audio, and most importantly status of Tuna.
Two dogs and a very weird cat
Kid 2’s house cracked from the heat. This is a thing in Texas. We are supposed to water our foundations except we also have water restrictions, so her entire neighborhood is dealing with it. Luckily it’s an interior wall. We probably won’t need foundation repair but we are having a company come out and assess

Oh Hello There
Last night at Casa Andrews: We had sedge wrens nesting in a hanging flower bucket right by our door, which meant we had to be super vigilant about keeping cats inside and watching Charlie, because Frenchies have a serious prey drive. The little birds have finally flown their nest yesterday and today, but at the
