I’ll never take that for granted though.
He can take my fingers clean off.
He’s very cool.
LOL! Luv it! Love the Cheney’s!
Couldn’t agree more with your tag line.
Awwwww to both pics. And I can’t believe the cat sat for that.
Nice find!
LOL! They are too cute!
We actually got our old cats a Bushie and HIllary doll. They loved to cuddle with the Bushie doll and beat the hell out of the hillary one. Good kitties.
So if the dog is Vader, does that make the VP Grand Moff Tarkin. After all, he would be the one holding Vader’s leash...
