This is Milly’s Cat Page….

Milly was born as a barn cat some time near January 2000… She is a short haired little girl cat. We like to think she has the markings of a snow leopard. She will be 9 years old this coming January - 2009.

We got lucky with Milly being such a good cat. As you can see in the picture above, she loves the dogs. She prefers to do her business outside. She is a dependable cat always there waiting for you when you get home. One of the best things about Milly is that she is a short haired cat and she really doesn’t shed much compared to her older sister Kenny.

Siamese Cats

The Siamese breed are very affectionate cats.  They are incredibly smart and independent.  They love to socialize and they have a very good disposition.  Siamese Cats usually have one person that they become very attached and devoted to.   They can be very demanding of your attention.  They love to play and this trait lasts into their later years.

They are known for their crossed eyes.  This can now be avoided by selective and responsible breeding.   They have a very beautiful soft and shiney coat, almost like a Chinchilla.  They can grow to be up to 15 lbs.  These cats are extremely vocal so don’t expect peace and quiet at all times.  The Siamese Cat has a long life expectancy of up to 20yrs and known to live even longer. 

The Siamese will make a wonderful companion and a long time relationship.

English Mastiff

Filed under: Dog Breeds, Dogs — shae @ 3:07 pm

The Mastiff breed has a very powerful appearance.  They have large, square heads and a massive body.  They make great guard dogs and are very loyal to their owners.  They are suprisingly gentle and calm but still playful when in the mood.  They do need a regular excercise routine just like many other dogs.  It’s very important that they do get their excercise to avoid health problems in the future.

It’s extremely important to socialize your Mastiff.  Pore socialization may lead to suspision of other dogs and people and possibly biting.  The English Mastiff dog is a very independent breed meaning they have a mind of their own.  Sometimes they will do what you tell them and other times they do the complete opposite.  They are known to be dominant because they want to be the top dog.   It’s important to be very consistant with them.

All though they take a while to train, English Mastiff Dogs are well worth the work in the end because they are one of the most loyal family dogs out there.
