Welcome to my brain. It’s messy. It’s interesting. And it’s all connected if you stick around long enough. "Believe Nothing: no matter who said it, even if I have said it, except it agree with your own reason and common sense. Siddhartha Guatamo, the Buddha.

I brought home a mess of trouble,,,,

I’m calling her Peanut.   Someone dropped her at the J.O.B. over the weekend and she started coming around on Tuesday.    She is massively depressed as she was still nursing puppies when the ShitStains dropped her off.  No puppies, so I would say its a dog fighter and they kept the pups, but she had served her purpose.  

There is a special place in hell for people like that,  

She is an absolute sweetheart,  and right now, she is tossing my well run household of kiittehs quite turbulant.   Grizz is flat PISSED!!!  won’t even let me touch him the couple of times he has came in.  Mama is actually taking it quite well, only hissing when that intruder comes sniffin’ round.  Zooms is curious, and vocal about ‘keep your distance’: funny that, when the boys were kittens, Zooms was terrified of Voodoo, and Grizz was ‘lets be friends’,,, now, roles have reversed a bit.     

Voo was ok with it until the food bowls were filled, but then Voo has always been the food agressive one.  Not quite sure how I am going to handle that situation,,,  

And she doesn’t want to stay if I leave.   I had to run into town, and found her down near the RR on my return.    I don’t like crating dogs, never have, and don’t have one to begin with, but if she won’t stay put,,,,

She is very clingy right now, and to be expected, this is the third time her world has been turned upside down and of all those changes, I am the only constant in two of them.   She was my shadow at work the last two days.   Now, she is quite underfoot,,,

Growing pains.   Everyone will adjust, it may take a week, or more, but we will find a happy medium somewhere.

    Good fer you, Bro! Yer right, it’s a-gonna take some adjusting, fer sure.

    I’ve been leaving my beast in the house with the front door closed, so he can’t see out at all. Been doing it all week for different lengths of time until I come back in from the garden. *SEEMS* to be working – so far. He hasn’t destroyed anything *YET*. He’s over 20 pounds now. Be mighty happy when I can go to the range again!! Keep on keepin on!

    Y’all take care,

      Keepin’ her in the house is a problem. I have dog doors for the Voo so he can come and go as he pleases. I can shutter them, but that leaves her in a spot where she is at the mercies of Kats, who aren’t known for mercy if ya know what I mean.
      This mornin’ Grizz was back in the house, but still so pissed I couldn’t touch him without growls. I gotta give it a day or two and see what happens but I will not lose Grizz: to much emotional investment in that furball.

    She’s new to the in house thing, so’s it’s expected. Hopefully, she’ll get used to it. Unnerstand about the various 4 feetz being possessive of their hoomanz! As well as the emotional aspect. She’z a cutie alright – don’t blame ya at all.

    Y’all take care,

    PS: Hope this doesn’t double poast!
