The Newest Member of Our Clan
Meet Calypso (Caly for short), the newest addition to our little family. She's a tiny 3 month old Maltese, born on Valentine's day. Dave took her to the vet today, and she weighed in at just about 3 pounds.
We already thought she was perfect, but our vet reinforced this notion by telling us he was very impressed with her temperament (she was a perfect pooch during her shots). Gidget isn't so thrilled with Caly but has refrained from any outright declarations of war. As long as Calypso keeps her distance, Gidget seems happy to perch somewhere high and stare at the puppy in disgust. Then, her natural cat curiosity kicks in and she just has to get a closer look: Caly is eager to play with Gidget and has made several unwelcome overtures of friendship. She seems to grasp that she should keep her distance when Gidget starts to puff up and growl.
Gidget, meanwhile, is finding new and creative ways to hide from the puppy. I call this one "Cat Lamp."

Very cute puppy, and perfect name! I love the shots of Gidget staring at her.
By the way, I am not sure when I noticed that the text under the blog name changes, but for at least the past few months looking to see what it says each time has been a highlight of visiting your site. Maybe that's because you don't update enough!!! ;P
