Benji

Benji Hi, my name is Benji, and I’m a shitzu/terrier mix. I was adopted from the pound by my mom, and I’ve been happy ever since. I like to bark at things that aren’t there, and I can dance around on my hind legs like a circus animal. My favorite nickname is “Benny”. Update: Benji died in late 2010 in his sleep. Thanks to all of his friends who have sent their condolences.

Ebony

Ebony in sunlight Hi, my name is Ebony, and I’m a rottweiler/shepherd mix. I was born in 1991, and I’m an only “child”, since all of my brothers and sisters were killed by my mom’s owner. My nicknames include “Snoo”, “Eb”, “Ebanu”, “Joe Isuzu”, “Eba-snoo”, “Snoo-zoo” and a lot more like those. In May of 2007 I was diagnosed with meta-static tumors, with the vet giving me very little time left.

Gabby

Gabby was a 16 year old calico cat, who disappeared in early November 2009, and is presumed to have died. She was a very loving cat who used to hang from shirts while they were being worn, and was purring no matter how adverse the circumstance. More pictures of Gabby are available at http://www.flickr.com/photos/whatsyourmeme/tags/gabby .

Isabella

My name is Isabella, and I’m a gremlin. (no one knows my real breed) My old owner boarded me up in a foreclosed house and left me to die, but Jeff and Tasha took me in. I’m kinda partial to them… I love playing with chew toys … … and I’m the most relaxed dog you’ll ever meet. There are more pictures of me available on Flickr. Update: Isabella died on May 1st, 2020 some time during the night.

Muffy

Muffy is about 19 or 20 years old as of late 2009, though we’re not sure exactly how old she is. She used to be very scared of people, but is a very love-y touch-y cat now. Her hobbies include sitting on the deck railing doing impressions of a gargoyle and trying to sit on the face of anyone who sits on my couch. (UPDATE: Unfortunately, Muffy ran under the back of a car, and had to be put to sleep.

Stan

My name is Stan, and I’m a purebred black labrador retriever. I was born in January of 1999, and lived in a pet store until Jeff picked me up. I’m a little upset that he got me neutered, but I try not to notice. I was named after Stan Rogers, a Canadian folksinger who died of smoke inhalation saving fellow passengers from an airplane fire in 1984. I’m very kindhearted, and though I bark loudly at everything and everyone, I would never hurt a fly.
