Mack — aka The Scrunt, Mr. Mack, Mackie Mack, Mack Attack — passed away on Friday night. It seems unreal. Just a week ago we were hiking around the cliffs of Kanab looking for arrowheads together. And tonight he is gone. We miss you, Mackie. We’ll love you always. Born …
Flora is all smiles with her little buddy, Iggy. After 2 days of settling in, we slowly introduced Flora to the foster kittens. ALL four of them immediately walked over to her, completely unfazed by her larger than life appearance. They were so curious and brave. They were pretty much …
Tiny kittens need extra special care that foster families can easily provide. Living in a house with two animal-loving human children (ages 8 and 10), many weekends consist of going to the Best Friends Animal Society visitor center in Kanab (where we live) to see the latest arrivals to the …
Dexter with his best buddy, J.J. Last week we lost our best cat friend, Dexter. I started to write this tribute a couple of times, but I’m going to be honest, it’s hard. I scoured hundreds (I’m not kidding!) of photos that we have taken of this special dude over …

Wow the month of June just kinda got right out from under me. I was just thinking “you know, I should update my blog,” and come to see it’s been over a month! A lot has happened in a month. The biggest news is that we have a new furry …
