He named them crowebar and fuzz. The lady that rescued them owns and runs a bar called the crowebar (sounds like crow bar) in a near by little town , She is a great person to take in nine kittens and raise them till they were old enough to be spayed and neutered and then got that taken care of herself and kept them till they got good homes.
And yes the black and white one sniffed around a few minutes and then began purring and looking for what he could get into.While my son was sitting on the floor starting his wood stove crowebar (the black and white) started sneaking up on him attacking him. It made his day that he was gonna be fiesty.lol

And I just spent two hours at his house when I dropped them off! Guess they are my new grand kitties lol, guess I better make them some kitty quilts,he already asked me to make them some toys lol.[/quot

I didn't start out to make quilts for dogs but I made my brother-in-law and his wife quilts for Christmas one year - which they raved over. The next time I visited them they were happy to tell me that the quilts were being put to good use and that their dogs love them.
Also, when I make a baby quilt, if there's a pooch in the house, I make a small checkerboard one out of the colors in the baby quilt for the mom to put in with her newborn for the first day Then the little quilt comes home so the dog can get the scent of the baby. That little quilt then becomes the dog's.

Every a.m. she spreads the quilt out over the dog's bed and every nite the dog remakes the bed. She digs the quilt up into a pile and when the pile is to her liking she lies down with her head on the pile of quilt. Now if THAT isn't appreciation, I don't know what is! LOL
P.S My dogs don't have quilts. They use mine which is on my bed!

You're a GOOD dog gramma. I have the sweetest granddog, Jimmy the wonder dog, and I make him special pilowcases and home made organic cookies. I think your granddog needs a matching pillow for her quilt. Again, you are a good gramma!!! :thumbup:
