Precious: So your staying home with me, right human? I'm going to need you to open that Temptations container. Then maybe, perhaps you will be allowed to have your coat back.

Update: Precious has been with us for like ever. I know we got her my freshman year of high school and that was like, 2011? She was already an adult cat at the time. Unfourtunatly, these last few years she's been on a steady decline. But Precious is determined! She has decided that she will outlive everything we bring into the house. Precious is the queen and she knows it!

Randall: I was taking a nap here. Turn off the light. Go away.

Update: Randall came to us as a barn 'cat' in 2016. Okay the dude took a close up picture and found her in a barn. In these parts, that's all you need to label something as a 'barn cat'. Age? That's just a number. But seriously, she was barely big enough to qualify as a cat. If we would have gotten her from the animal shelter, she would have been listed as a kitten. 

Noel: I did not approve of a new puppy. If she chokes, it's her own fault!

Luna: Oven mitt is delicious. New sister is a comfortable pillow.

Update: This is just my favorite picture of these two. Noel and Luna get along great now, although we will not be adding another pet to the family fo a few more years. Luna did not actually get to eat the oven mitt. Both dogs have plenty of rubber chew toys and emotional support tennis balls. Like seriously, a laundry bin of toys and I don't know how many tennis balls scattered around the house and yard.
