Lo-Size Lily
Hi. Check it out, I have my own store now!
the atomicpug store. You can buy cool stuff there, like real US
postage stamps with my picture on them.
This is really my page. The cats don't have a page so Mom and
Dad are making me share. Like I don't share enough with them already.
They sleep in my beds all the time (when they're not being naughty and
sleeping on Mom & Pops' bed). They play with my toys. And boy does
Georgia get jealous when I'm on Pop's lap while he's working on the
computer. Like right now.
I don't really mind though. Sometimes they hiss when I try to play
with them. I just wish the cats would be a bit nicer. They do let me
lick out their bowls after breakfast and dinner, which is pretty cool.
I guess if they were nicer maybe they'd get to have their own store,
like mine. Or maybe they'd be on Catster or something. But they're not.
Here are my favorite links:
Lo-Size Lily, AKA Miss Lily D
Lily joined our family in December of 2003 (she was born October 2nd). Her
full name is Lo-Size Lily D, and she's an unusual (non-AKC) breed
of pug. She is an
American Lo-Sze Pugg (TM) Dog, and she came to us from Venus. That's
right: Venus, Texas.
Lily loves to chew her bones. She was happy to settle down with a bone and
vogue for the camera here.
Pugs like to be warm (they also hate to have their nails cut, but that's a
different story). Here's Lily getting cozy belowdecks on
Manzanita Moon. Lily enjoys sailing, as long as
she's warm.
Speaking of being warm, Lily loves to lie in the sun. Here's she's
pretending she's a pumpkin (which, of course, she is).
Lily's a good dog, but she's especially good around the holidays.

Georgia the Curious Cat
Georgia and Talullah are birth-sisters, but they're very different.
Georgia is curious, active, and lithe. Talullah is not. Georgia and
Talullah joined our family in 1999, so they had a head start on Lily and
they still rule the roost. They came to us from
PAWS, a great animal welfare
organization here in Seattle, and we promised to keep them indoor cats.
Talullah couldn't care less about the outdoors, but Georgia often sits
on the window sill "pining for the fjords." Of course, the one time she
did get out she was scared out of her wits and hid under a low tree
until Shane rescued her.
Georgia tries to look tough, and she talks a good game, but really she's
a, well, a pussycat. She loves nothing better than to curl up in Shane's
lap while he's at the computer.
No birds were harmed in the production of this picture. The only tastes of
feathers Georgia has had have been off a toy from Petco.
