Betsy's Story

I was born on April 29th, 1992. I just love to play with squeaky toys and help herd the two cats that live in my home. Sometimes, that darn Abyssinian will sleep on my bed, oh well - I can share. I'm a great traveling companion and I go everywhere with my people. I just love to ride in the car My favorite food is bread. I can even tell if you have some in your grocery bag. If you want to teach me a trick - remember - I'll do anything for a morsel of bread! Also, keep an eye on me or I will pick your cherry tomatoes right off the bush. I love to sleep in the sun, and always pick the hottest spot for a snooze. Most times I am well behaved and keep a close eye on my home. I let Jean and Joe know every time the phone rings. And I can sound ferocious when a stranger comes to the door. Everyday, it is my job to get the newspaper. Oh, I mustn't forget..I like bread.

UPDATE: Hi there - I'm almost 15 years old. About a year ago, I lost the use of my rear legs and I now have a really neat cart. I cannot get the newspaper anymore, but I still let Jean and Joe know when the mail comes, or when the phone rings. I can only hear loud noises now and have a little trouble seeing in low light. But I am still happy and like to have my head scratched. Oh, and of course...I AM THE BOSS!

UPDATE: I am an ancient at 15.5+ years old. Most of my days are spent sleeping. I still get really excited for bread. On November 14th, 2007 I made my trip to the Rainbow Bridge. Oh, and I will always be...THE BOSS!
