I hope you can as well!

Pointers lifespans are generally 13 years-ish, so we are so grateful to have made it this far. I think she's the oldest pointer my family's ever had.

Amazing!!!

It is. She’s a skinny thing when soaking wet.

Had a little party for her yesterday. She is pooped today!

When it comes to food, especially the good stuff, we don’t fuck around.  She would attack Zeus if he got some and she didn’t.  Rescues, eh?  Food security is very impawtant.

My cat was like that when I first rescued her. She would guzzle her food really fast then go over to my other cat’s food and try to push him out of the way to eat his food. Now that I have had her for a few years she is secure that she will have a next meal. She has slowed down her eating considerably and no longer goes for the other cat’s food. It sad to think that our pets may have had to struggle before we gave them homes.

At least they have a good life now x

Max is so much better than she was when we first brought Zeus home. She’s much more willing to share space with him and to not attack him if he gets a treat before she does. Salmon though . . . All bets are off lol.

I have some sad news, doggie people.....Carolyn aka Who Princess recently passed away after battling ocular melanoma for about two years. OM is a super rare cancer that researchers have not yet found an effective treatment for.

I "met" Carolyn and many of you through this thread. It was her favorite. She liked to say it was a "feel good" thread. Unlike so many other threads where people are bitching about ticket sales or politics or whatever, this thread has always had a positive vibe since SENROCK started it in 2005. I scrolled through all the early pages until I found myself, first chiming in in 2008, and Carolyn, first appearing in 2009. WOW! the names back then...SENROCK, PJ_ROCKS, PJaddicted, norm austicman, SPEEDY, lizard, haffajappa, ms. haiku, decides2dream, unlostdogs, heineken helen, phantom pain, Fifthelement, patrickredeyes, etc....I have met a bunch of you in person because of this thread...I met Carolyn the same way at the Denver show in 2014.

carolyn was always a comfort when I lost a dog (twice). She had lost like nine of her beloved Shelties  through the years. She leaves two of them and a husband behind. I went through cancer, myself, over ten years ago and the Who Princess sent me lots of good CDs and music magazines. A ton of people in this forum got me through it. Like Carolyn, I love dogs, the Who, PJ, baseball and all the great music you youngsters missed. Hell, Carolyn saw Hendrix, back in the day!

If you would like to reach out to Carolyn's husband, PM me for his address.

RIP, whoprincess

I hope Glenn and the Shelties are finding a bit of comfort in each other 😓

P.S. the whoprincess met Piper in Denver when Piper was seven months old and on her first road trip. middle of the night potty runs from the ninth floor of the hotel were quite the production

I've only met a couple of you guys in person, but every time a 10C member passes away I feel like losing a 'family' member...

R.I.P. Carolyn. Hang in there Glenn
