@Chris, yesssss, Kamineko occasionally possesses Arri and we have to deal with her evil until he moves on…

Oh my god. That picture is freaking me out. When I was a kid we did dress up my dog and cat, but that was just using my sister’s doll clothes. They definitely weren’t the cosplaying type.

Awwwww, cute puppy -super rats!

@Karura, kitties rock and so do horsies (I have serious issues with adding -ie/ -y at the end of cute things, sorry). It’s rough having communal pets; everybody need to agree on a name. At least you’ve been lucky with having some of the cast of Yugi- Oh in your family ^^b.

Since I have to get the approval of the rest of the family before naming a pet, so far we’ve only had cats called Yugi, Joey, Seto, Maya and Kirika, and a horse nicknamed Sakura. I keep pushing for more anime-related nicknames, but it can be an uphill struggle.

I have a mutt, half shih-tzu and half bichon, named Icchan. She gets her name after Icchan from Battle Athletes Victory. The name fits as my dog is a high energy, persistent, scrappy type of dog, who keeps bugging me until I get out of bed on Saturday morning. She doesn’t care if I want to sleep in.

@Julie, your puppy is a cutie! Heâ€™s not so good at DDR, but I donâ€™t think Rotties are known for their rhythm. Neither are tiny black cats, lol.

@Mochi – While he does produce chocolate colored nuggets, I certainly would not consider them edible!

@Rachel – Buu can change from my sweet little baby into a snarling, frothing monster in about 2 seconds flat. All it takes is a glimpse of another dog or a stranger to approach me. This does not happen when he is with my husband.

He is also rather large, and he is unaware of his destructive power. Once he is in play-mode and is thundering about the house with his beloved ring toy flapping from his mouth, nothing is safe!! Cell phone chargers, bathroom doors, carelessly scattered magazines and newspapers – destroyed!

Here is a post about my little darling

@Julie – Of course, if he can turn things into chocolate…that could be useful.

@Rachel – I wrote about the spam musubi for the humor of the recipe and the
patois. If you have ever been to Hawaii, you may notice that there is almost
an obsession with spam…this dates back to WWII. Here is a short article which
talks about “Hawaii’s Soul Food”:

http://www.viamagazine.com/top_stories/articles/hawaiian_food05.asp

Musubi was not as large as most Main Coons. His features and frame were
more delicate and I doubt he ever weighed more than 16 lbs. He was a gentle
cat…unless you were a vet. Apparently, he made a big impression on my vet’s
office as they still tell stories about their encounters with him. We have
another cat which has some Maine Coon in him. His features and frame are
more like a traditional Maine Coon…really big paws, too. However, he is like
a mini-Maine Coon…smaller than Musubi, but he weighs over 17 lbs. My
wife’s boss owns a Maine Coon which is over 22 lbs. If I can find a good
photo of Musubi, I’ll e-mail it to you…we’re still using film, so I’ll have to
scan it.
