Let me introduce . . . .

This is Ernest T. Bass when he was just a small skinny scrawny baby who was dumped here, all unloved, unwanted and neglected.


Isn't he the cutest thing you ever saw?  See how that tail is whipping so fast you can't even see it?  I put one of Maxwell Banks' t-shirts on him and it looked like a muscle shirt!  This is the photo that I put on craigslist when we were trying to find him a home.  Are those the biggest flappiest ears ever?  And white toes on all his feetses.  Such a cutie.


And this is how big he grew up to be!  omg.  Who would have thought the rest of him would grow to fit those ears?  He is the sweetest boy most of the time.  Because he has so much bulldog in him he is stubborn as all get out, so you can never ever give in when you say something to him.  But I have never met a dog so eager to please.  And as much as it pains me to say it, this mutt dog is the smartest dog we have ever had.



Although you couldn't tell it by THAT picture!  That is how he spends most of his time, airing it out and sunning his belly-side.  Sunny side up, that's our Ernest T.!



And who have we here?  Why, that is the most handsome Little Lester Buster.  He is my most obese cat weighing in at 14 lbs.  That seems to be his "fighting weight" as they call it.  He is my snuggle bunny. We sleep together every night.  Lester has a twin brother, Stanley Manley who is not quite as plump, but still just as handsome.



This is Stanley and Lester snuggled up together just being a pile-o-cats.  How cute it that?

I will save the cuteness that is Nikita Babushka, Maxwell Banks II, and Angus MacPhee and Fergus Jackson MacPhee for later.  I wouldn't want to overwhelm you with all the preciousness!!

  1. Ernest T. is the cutest li'l boy. I love his facebook updates :)

    LOVE when pets snuggle/cuddle up together. It is RARE that ours do this, as Princess usually growls at Doogie when she comes flopping over too close.

    Can't wait to virtually meet the rest and finally meet the whole crew in person sometime in 2010 ;)

  2. Oh my goodness, they are just perfect in their adorableness.

    Especially, that last picture of cuddling. My two babies do this thing in the morning that just slays me every time. I take them out of their crate. They're cuddled up in the same big pen. I bring them outside. And as they bound out of the house into the great outdoors, they stay cuddled up against each other. They run outside looking like Siamese twins because they're buttressed up against each other. I'm sure the enormous outdoors seems so daunting to them. I, for one, find it to be the sweetest thing ever. I love the emotion that animals have. Sometimes their love is bigger than humans. I'm just sayin'.

  4. Guess who loves her some Earnest? And his T Bags or whatever? What a handsome boy! And Tallulah is smart, too. Are Pits supposed to be smart? I changed "walk" to "constitutional" and she caught on in a week.
