Re: 4/17 Mousie AMPS 105 +4 78 +11 165
oh yeah, there she goes....up up up up
pmps is in about 40 minutes. we are exhausted as we've been up and running since 5:30 this morning so i gotta make myself sit here at the computer for 40 minutes 'cause if i go to the living room, i'll be asleep in seconds. LOL!! i know, i'll toss together a load of laundry to kill some time.
the expo was fantastic of course. something struck us very odd though, there weren't near as many cats there this year. a lot of vendors selling cat stuff but not as many cats themselves. i did pet my first hairless cat (can't remember what kind, but like Steve's Jock) and oh my they were the cutest ones at the expo. the one i petted felt like a peach. LOL!! that's the best way i can describe it.
oh, and not as many giveaways for sure. they had samples but most places were "free samples with any donation" type of thing and honestly, as a business owner and with the current economic state, we totally understood.
we did see llamas, pot bellied pigs, hundreds and hundreds of dogs, deer, horses, rats, a bobcat, reptiles of all sorts and sizes, cats of course, some odd birds, a miniature kangaroo looking thing, a sloth(?), some wierd looking chicken things that had long bald necks (i've got pictures), and probably about 20,000 humans
oh, and the german sheperd rescue group involved with the recently rescued dog called Courage (been in the news a lot out here the last week or so) had two displays and boy oh boy did they have the information on the arrested suspect out there in full view so everyone could know who she was. (it's a real sad story so i won't go into detail here but you can google about it and find it i'm sure. oh, and so far the dog is doing good so that's a plus)
ok, only 30 minutes to kill now
