Missing my sweet Gracie. It’s been 4yrs this month since I lost her.
She was the happiest and most loving Doberman. She never met a stranger.

She likes dirt.
We all know Andrew likes to update the Rescue with Tara stories...well, Jemma’s following his lead...
Beautiful countryside!! I could picture my twins running and playing in the fields.
I just had to post a picture of my precious little old woman “Cruza”. In all the years I have had her,
(since 4wks old) she has never gone outside. She is 19yrs as of Feb. She had plenty of opportunity but chose to be indoors.
Well I have been nursing her for a bit over a couple months now after being diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. She developed sneezing, self starvation and lethargy. I was so worried that Doc was going to say it was time, but he didn’t. We started with nebulizer treatments. She quit eating because she couldn’t smell her food. We started doing nasal flushes and antibiotics. Today she actually ate her own food instead of me tube feeding her. She decided she wanted to come outside with me. TOTAL SHOCK...she has never gone outside. My girl has developed an adventurous side and is recovering nicely. Thank God!! I have been so stressed over her.
First adventure outside.
Here she is watching a lizard run up a tree.
Going after the lizard.

Thank you! Yes it is awesome watching her look at outdoor life with enthusiasm and enjoying it.
Aww
lots of love to little Cruza. I have a very tender heart for cats (as well), especially old ones. Pets' personalities become so touching in late days. I also previously had a catboy (indoor) from 12wks to 20 y/o.
Fascinating - Cruza becoming adventurous all of a sudden.

Do you think having to take care of her so much made her bond with you on a deeper level?
Not really. She has always been a one person cat. For years people didn’t believe I had another cat because she would hide if anyone came in. She is strictly a one person cat. I think the majority of Torties are skittish and spooky cats by nature unless raised around a house without other pets. This is the first health issue she has ever had other than being borderline diabetic about 3 yrs ago. We changed her diet and took off some weight and never had to medicate her for it. Now its normal. The first pill she was ever given was the one for her Thyroid a couple months ago. She has been a super healthy cat.

I think Moo sits on the vent next to the back door because it feels nice but it always makes me feel guilty for not letting him out!
The grass is filling in nicely around the patio, our Rose of Sharon finally started blooming a couple of weeks ago, and the cicada's keep falling out of our giant tree to entertain the dogs. We've spent every weekend night around that fire pit since we got home from Nashville!
