All Hail The Panda Dog!!

I have a hard time deciding what I love more -- pandas or Chow Chows. So, you can imagine my giddiness when I saw pics of the Panda Chow!





This has got the be the most glorious creature I've ever seen! I actually don't know its background or what it is -- I am assuming that it's a Chow Chow that was either born with the panda coloring or dyed to look that way (which would be horribly cruel to the dog, but I digress).

Anyway, everyone bask in Panda Chow's adoreable-ness!!!

Happy Birthday Skylar!!!

This week, I got to celebrate the 5th birthday of my beloved cat, Skylar. I have to admit that my cat is a terror -- she hates everyone except my mom and sometimes me. She has been known to bite and scratch whenever she feels like it. But, regardless of her temperment, I still love her to bits, and can't believe she is five years old!! She has definitely mellowed out recently and is not as aggressive as she used to be. She gets spoiled like crazy by me. Here's a little bit more about my cat and the things we've come to learn about her over the past five years:

Loves:

• Pounce (in any flavor)
• Going outside and beheading birds, mice, crickets, and anything else that passes by
• Drinking water from the faucet
• Having her face/ears rubbed or scratched
• Baths (yes, believe it or not, my cat loves baths!)
• Laying out on the sidewalk on a sunny day
• Scratching my mom's furniture
• Eating dinner with the family (favorite foods include fish, shrimp, and chicken)
  

Hates:

• 99.99% of the human and animal population (especially hates the male cat next door)
  
• Snow
• Being bothered when sleeping
• Being touched anywhere but her head

Here are some pics of my girl from past and present!
