Bo vs. Emmy Lou Cupcake

I'm sure, by now, you've all seen pics of the First Dog, Bo. He's cute, I'll give him that. However, my half-dozen are WAY cuter!

You be the judge. Here are my babies: Caramel, Dusty, Scampy, Emmy Lou Cupcake (my favorite!), Tiger Lilly and Zoro. Let me know what you think and tell me about your sweet babies!

My sweet baby is a kitty too...her name is Belle! She has MANY names though. I love her so much!

Your babies are just as precious as they can be! I'll post a pic of Belle on my blog.

:-)

Beth said...

Yeah, Bo is cute, and seeing the girls with him is adorable.

But as our cat Sheeba likes to say (in his slight Russian accent), "Dogs drool, cats rule." :)

Good grief. SIX cats? I thought I'd go nuts with three. You are the cat goddess if you can keep that herd happy!

Paul Michael Murphy said...

What's this? The President has a dog?

Huh. Too bad this wasn't on the news.

And what's that you say? Something about pirates? Well I'll be damned.

Jenni James said...

LOL! I'm a Zorro fan all the way and MASSIVE Latin lover.. so I'll have to say Zoro! Cute!

Joanne said...

Your kitties' cuteness, combined with my kitty Puddin's cuteness, puts Bo's cuteness, which doesn't really count because he's a dog, to shame! Go cats ...

Michelle D. Argyle said...

Every writer seems to have a cat. And you have a lot. Wow! They're adorable.

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

Traci, Belle - I love that name! I can't wait to see her make her stage debut on your blog.

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

Beth, Sheeba is one smart cookie. My cats love the line, "Dogs have owners, cats have staff."

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

WW, Only six. That's how I answer when someone asks how many cats I have.;-)

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

Paul, Nice job avoiding the outside world. And you might want to google Phil Spector; Octo-Mom.

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

Jenni, Zoro is the heaviest and the biggest comedian in the group. He's also a little crazy. We considered naming him "Kramer" from Seinfeld, but he had that perfect black mask...

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

Joanne, How true! There really is no comparison between dogs and cats. I just said Bo was cute to be nice.;-)

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

Michelle, That's very true about writers and cats. Albert Schweitzer said, "There are two means of refuge from the miseries of life: music and cats." Notice he didn't mention dogs.

I knew we would get along. I'm a cat lover myself. My house is ruled by 4 cats and a working dog. All were rescues. I have another 4 that are considered unadoptable because of their distrust of humans. They live on my front porch to be fed and escape afterwards.

I've lost track of exactly how many strays I've caught, gotten shots and fixed, and re-homed. Even Pickles the wonder dog is a Katrina survivor.

The Presidents dog is cute...but I think he would of said far more by rescuing a stray instead of going for breed. (Hugs)Indigo

Cute kitties! My babies are Goofy my 12 yr old miniature pinscher and my sweet lil puppy, Daisy.

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

Indigo, Cats are the best. They're so zen-like and regal. I don't understand how anyone could not like them!

Good for you for taking care of so many, and you're right about the First Dog. I hadn't thought about a rescue, but that definitely would have made a bigger statement. However, Bo was a gift from Senator Kennedy.

Also, thanks for stopping by Miss Snark's!

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

Kelly, Goofy and Daisy - love those names! Thanks for sharing about your sweet babies.;-)

LenoreNeverM♡re said...

adorable! who knows, they'd get invited to the RSVP only at the White House...heard it' a black tie event! ;)

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

Lenore, Funny! I guess that means my big, fat Zoro could attend, too! Thanks for stopping by. I hope you'll be back.;-)

Lilly said...

Oh my you have so MUCH cuteness there Deb. That is a lot of cats you have. Bo, is kind of cute too, not sure how he would go with six cats though.

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

Thanks, Lilly. They're the loves of my life. Along with my kids and husband, of course!

Bo is such a cute name - I assume he's a dog? My cats would be terrified! They don't know there are any other species of animal besides felines. (I'm pretty sure they think we're cats, too. Just really ugly ones.)
