Your Pet's Story or Bio
Dopey was our first 'castoff' pet when my stepdaughter's college friend needed to 'get rid of him because he was a pit' and her mom wouldn't let her keep him. He already had his name and my son loved it, so we kept it and it fits. He is a big, clunky sweetheard. We found little Happy on the Recycled Pets website. She has identical markings as Dopey, so it was 'meant to be'. A year later, Recycled Pets had matching tuxedo kittens on their website. Sneezy was named because my son is allergic to cats, and Bashful is very shy. We control allergies with grooming, vacuuming, and air purifiers. Problem solved. A year later, we found Snow White at the Sacramento County Animal Shelter. Our beloved animal kingdom. This photo is a 2013 costume contest with the tuxedo pets dressed as Chia Pets. This year, we painted the 5mos. kitten, Snow White, into the photo with her very own Chia hat. I'm entering them for an October or Halloween page.
