of Kassie
June 28, 1986 - May 21, 2002

 

After the big earthquakes in 1992, Kassie became very good at telling me when there would be another aftershock! She would slink along the floor, heading for the bedroom and the safety of being under the bed! On the actual day of the quake was the ONLY time that Kassie EVER got into her crate on her own! I got it out and staged in case I needed it and happened to find her in it!

In 1996 we moved into a new house. Kassie didn't like the change... she spent the first several days living under the bed! Fortunatly she realized it was going to be all right and decided to come out and join the family!

September 1997 we decided it was time to add to the family! So on September 4th we brought home Brie! Kassie wasn't as disgruntled as we thought she would be, but she didn't want too much to do with her. Over time she learned to tolerate Brie and some of the most touching moments were when Kassie would allow Brie to sniff her or she would sniff Brie!

But that wasn't enough! So on July 2, 1999 we brought home Tyler! This was a little different story... as Tyler had been raised with kitties that liked to kiss the puppies. So when Tyler saw Kassie he thought he was going to get kittie kisses... uhm.. No Way! Again time worked and Kassie and Tyler became friends.

It was always quite a chore to get a picture os all three of them together. Try as we might, it usually ended up with Kassie walking away... not wanting any part of the picture taking. We managed to get a few of the three of them together.

 

And I think this is the only picture of all five of us taken on Christmas Day 2000.
