The title of this blog is Too Many Furbrats, but funny how I haven't posted pics of them or mentioned them very often. Well here is the first.
This is Brandon the dog we got from the neighbors. He was too rambunctious for them, so they left him outside by himself on their back porch. It depressed me to see him out there in the cold. They got him in November. I can see the side of their house and backyard from my kitchen sink.
He had long matted hair, was not socialized at all. He would growl at you if you came near him. They left him alone one weekend and we fed and watered him. His bowls were way too small for him. He wasn't housebroken and he liked to nip and bite.
When they mentioned they were going to give him away, we begged them to give him to us. At first they didn't want to, but the Dad talked the Mom and daughter into giving him up. The Dad had told the daughter not to get him in the first place, because he knew she didn't have time to take care of a pet.
He was and still is a bit unruly, but I love him. He is my little cuddlebug. He doesn't bite as much and he is almost housebroken. He doesn't vocalize when he has to go, but starts pacing the hallway. When he has an accident he goes on the tile floor, so it is easy to clean. He is so considerate!
Baby Tiger just showed up in May. He is very tame and loving. He must have wandered away from a house close by. He gets along with all the pets. We had some kittens born on our porch in April, so they kind of all hang together. I'll post some pictures of them also.
I call him Baby Tiger because I used to have a cat that looked just like him named Tiger. He also showed up as a lost tame stray. He was a wonderful adventurous cat. Unfortunately his adventures led him to a battle with a rattle snake. He didn't make it, but we feel he is reincarnated in Baby Tiger.
