Socks goes to Rainbow Bridge

Socks, the famous Clinton cat, passed away Friday after months of treatment for cancer.

"Socks brought much happiness to Chelsea and us over the years, and enjoyment to kids and cat lovers everywhere," Bill and Hillary Clinton said in a joint statement released by the William J. Clinton Foundation. "We're grateful for those memories, and we especially want to thank our good friend, Betty Currie, for taking such loving care of Socks for so many years."

Veterinarians say he was probably either 19 or 20 years old. RIP Socks.

Sadly, sweet Loki, Mickey Rourke's 18 year old chihuahua and beloved companion passed away on Monday. I don't know about you but I was all teary when Mickey thanked his dogs at the Golden Globes and I was looking forward to seeing them together at the Oscars.

Says Rourke: "Loki is deeply missed but with me in spirit. I feel very blessed that she fell asleep peacefully in my arms."

RIP little Loki.

We woof you, Ruby

Toby the cat

Friday
Feb 13,2009

Anji takes me to work with her and there are two cats there, Toby and Fiddy. They're both giant orange cats. They're not 100% sure about me yet but tolerate my presence pretty well. I act confident but really I'm just trying to hide the fact that I'm terrified of them scratching my eyeballs out. I just read Toby's journal and found out that he thinks I might be stupid. They've totally seen me sit, stay, shake a paw, other paw, sit up, and come when I'm called. I am very clever... and my toots don't smell... Cats are such snobs!

Fancy cookies

LOOK at this peanut butter waffle yogurt cone treat.

I snatched it out of Anji's hand before she got a chance to get a shot of it in focus, but I'm certain you can imagine how delicious it was. Judging by the Bark & Fitz bag on the counter, I think I'm going to get another fancy cookie soon. Maybe for Valentines?
