Our door is always open

One reason Hef''s dad and I got Bandit was to rescue an animal from a shelter. We have plenty of room for animals. When I came home for the first time, our house felt empty. A 70lb bouncing german shepherd makes a house feel full. So in the spirit of helping animals in need we welcome a new member to the bunny lounge family.
"It's ok, come say hi!"
This is Elvira, a one year old kitty rescued from a shelter. She loves being in my lap and purring, which is very comferting. She has been shy, but is starting to explore more. So far no problems with Hef or Shadow, and Hef's dad isn't having any allergy problems!

Oh, she is adorable! Good for you for opening your hearts to more animals. Now we can pass the "rescue" baton to you and Friend of the Animals and Diana and all the other kind souls who save these unwanted little cuties.

Elvira, Mistress of the Dark (the dark under the couch, that is).

A lovely a girlie as she couldn't ask for a better home than yours. :)

She is beautiful. And reminds me of our beloved Pushkin that we had to say goodbye to a few months ago.

This has been bugging me all day - now I remember .. that song from The Oak Ridge Boys!

"Elvira! Elvira! My heart's on fire for Elvira! Giddy Up Oom Poppa Omm Poppa Mow Mow
Giddy Up Oom Poppa Omm Poppa Mow Mow
Heigh-ho Silver, away"
