QUICK UPDATE

I just wanted to report that the rescued puppy, Midnight, has found her forever home! Neighbor ran an ad on Craigslist and, after two weeks, finally got two responses in a row. The first was a lady and her granddaughter, age 11, whose previous dog had died a while back. Neighbor visited with them and decided they would be a good match. Midnight has been with them for about a week and is settling in nicely. Everyone is very happy at the great outcome of this rescue.

QUICK PUPPY UPDATE

I checked with my neighbor yesterday about the status of Midi (Midnight), the lab mix puppy he's trying to find a home for. She hasn't found her forever home yet. Neighbor is planning on having her and her kitty companion, Jessie, spayed soon. Here's a picture of Midi and Jessie playing. Aren't they just the cutest things?

PUPPY NEEDS HOME

Recently my neighbor rescued the cutest lab mix puppy girl and is trying to find her a home. He asked me to come by and take some pictures of her so he could make some hand outs. Midi (short for Midnight) is very well behaved for a young lab. When he took her in she was underfed and had skin problems. She's been to the vet and is all healthy. She also likes cats and loves to play with a kitten my neighbor rescued at the same time. I just wanted to post some pictures of her to let you see just how cute she is.

Isn't she just the cutest thing? She would love to have another dog to play with, too. I'm not asking you to adopt her, just wish her luck in finding her forever home. But if you do know someone in the Houston area who might like to make her a part of their family, please let me know.

DOGGY AND KITTY TOTES

I was so lucky lately to have sold two of my totes to volunteers with a local animal adoption group called HOPE (Homeless and Orphaned Pet Endeavor). I went to the site at a local Petco a couple of weeks ago to pick up some kitty hammocks from another volunteer and took my doggie print tote for a "show & tell". One of the dog foster parents fell in love with it and bought it then and there!

In addition, a cat foster mom asked if I could make one with cats on it and I said that of course I could. I delivered it this weekend and, again, it was a big hit. I loved the fabrics and I'm so glad each tote has found a good home.

I'm currently working on a rag quilt that features another cat print in pinks and purples on cream. I'll post a picture as soon as I'm finished.

DOGGY LOVE?

I've had so many posts about cats that I thought I'd talk about dogs. My latest dog-themed tote to be exact. I just listed this cute tote on ebay and etsy. The outside of the tote is a patchwork of cute doggy drawings and phrases. Inside is a coordinating paw print fabric. All of it is accented with topstitching/quilting in red. There are two roomy inside pockets and a magnetic snap to keep everything secure. This is the perfect year-round tote for any dog lover.
