I'll put you in that separate group, and you'll only hear from me three to four times each year rather than more frequently.

Our Pets

All our pets are rescues. Please consider rescuing an animal for your next pet. You won't regret it - try the pound, animal shelters, animal rescue, or ask around among friends.

Rescued animals make the best pets, in my opinion.

Buddha, below, died in late 2006 while undergoing some surgery. We still miss her, but we adopted a new rabbit from our local Humane Society. I'll post his picture soon, but in the meantime, goodbye Buddha -- hope you have lots of hay and a good running area where you are now.
