I looked down at the empty treat bag, crumpled in the trash bin. "This is my last pack," I promised. "I gotta get slim, for Chili." For a hot second I even meant it.

Butterscotch is gravely concerned: Concerned about making sure he laps up all of the cheese he licked off my fingers after I stress ate an entire pizza.

My little Schnoozl is getting along so well with our older kitty, Gypsy (18 freaking years old!). She even licked him yesterday. He's also started exploring the great outdoors, so we had to buy him a collar and name tag.  Unfortunately, he's also discovered my knitting. You can imagine the mess he made. All in all, for an orphaned, feral colony kitten, he's doing pretty darn good.

According to Chili, he likes it outside, but he doesn't stray too far from the house. He's a good Butters and I'm glad he's a nice ray of light.

My mother has a cat that used to be terrified of going outside, but has gotten more and more bold as time goes on and is now coming back with lizards, birds, and mice in his mouth. He's a huge cat, very fluffy, and his name is Rex.

Hope y'all don't mind a crosspost (by me) from the cute thread in PYF, but I thought you fine folks might appreciate it. I work at a specialty pet store/dog wash, where people can wash their dogs themselves or have us do it for them. We got a call earlier today from a new customer looking for a full serve appointment for a Keeshond (think small dark akita) she had just picked up from a family friend. Apparently, the new customer, "Lana," had driven up from Massachusetts into Maine after talking with the dog's owner and having met the dog many times over a few years while visiting her mother. She was concerned the dog, Zenni, was being neglected and had finally convinced the owner to let her take Zenni and find her a home that fit her needs. I didn't know any of these details when Lana, her daughter Sylvia, and Zenni walked through the door, all I thought was "Holy poo poo, when was the last time this dog was brushed??" I was completely poleaxed by the state this poor pup was in. She clearly hadn't been brushed in what I'm sure was MONTHS, and had poop stuck to her butt as well as more than a couple fleas. I put her in the tub and was tugging handfuls of matted hair out of her, which she took extremely well. Most dogs hate the bath and many aren't fond of being brushed, especially when you're pulling fist-sized matts out of them, but Zenni was a loving champ. She panted hard the whole time but only whined twice, let me maneuver her as needed, and even clip her nails and use our industrial blow drier. I can't have a dog due to job/living space but I kind of fell in love with her, and really wish I could have taken her. She has an amazing temperament. All of this was great, but I ended up spending well over 2 hours on Zenni, well past the time my shift ended. I think I became a bit maniacal, I ended up using a special conditioner and conditioning spray that I didn't charge Lana for because goddamn was I gonna make that dog pretty. After the first hour and a half or so Lana and Sylvia (mid-20's) came back from an errand and hung around while I finished up so I learned her whole story as written above. Her previous owner fed her only once a day, in the mornings. Zenni was usually housebroken unless "her owner was gone for 14 hours or so." She got very little exercise, but was luckily neither obese or emaciated. And god, what a good loving dog. She was sweet as could be, and I really, really, really wish I was in a position to take her. At the end, I finally let Zenni go. Lana took a picture of us and texted it to me, which was lovely of her, and promised to let me know if they would decide to keep her themselves or rehome her after an extensive background check--Lana's done this sort of thing before. I promised to post on Facebook if she became available. Additionally, Lana mentioned she'd like to give me a tip on her credit card, which was very nice, but I usually expect about $5, maybe $10. My coworker rung her up, so I didn't see it until they left. Lana tipped me $50. Moral of the story: if you know anyone who is neglecting their dog, you can convince them--maybe over a long period of time--that the dog, cat, or whatever might be better elsewhere. Sometimes you win that fight and the animal goes on to a wonderful life they never could have dreamed. If you know of a animal like this, don't wait. Broach the subject, make your argument. Let it simmer if you have to. But if the results are anything like Zenni, you won't be disappointed.
