My Doves

I have a cage out back under the big pine tree where I raise doves. I now have eight. In the summer they will lay eggs and have one or two babies. In the mornings they coo. I love laying in bed and listening to them. They have been alot of fun. They are pretty tame and will let the grandbabies hold them.

My Outdoor Kitty

This is a photo of a stray cat that started to hang around my back yard this past Summer; and as you can see.. he is still here and getting fatter. I have food and water and a warm basket with a heating blanket in it for him to sleep. I have tried to coax him into the house, but he hates the hairless cats and the noise of the grandkids. When he first started to come around he would not even allow you to pet him. Now he allows me to bring him indoors and hold him for a few minutes and then he is ready to go outside. During the summer months, he shared his food with a skunk that would come around. Paul would get so mad at me for feeding the skunk. But he was so pretty and got "so, so fat" on kitty food. I haven't seen him since the weather has gotten colder and the snow has come. I love animals.

KITTY "CASH"

This is one of my hairless "SPHYNX" cats. His name is CASH.
I saw the movie "WALK THE LINE" and fell in love with it and hence this cat's name. My other cat's name is "GOOD KNIGHT MOSES." We just call him Moses. They love to sit on laps and sleep snuggled up to you under the covers. Winters are hard for them... they like to wear sweaters. I love them.

Melissa and her Daddy. Melissa made Paul this blanket for Christmas. The card said "To the Most Important Man in My Life."

I took this photo of Melissa and Heather when we were headed to the afternoon performance of NUTCRACKER. It was taken outside the door of Melissa's apartment in Vegas. They are wearing the BeBe shirts I bought them when Melissa was home in October. Heather is almost six months pregnant here with baby Xander Zachary.
