“Dogs and cats living together! Mass Hysteria!” Peter Venkman, Ghostbusters
Is this a sign of the end? Probably, every day is the end. But the end is also a beginning.
Mass hysteria!

Tutu
It seemed a shame to let 2-2-22 pass by without comment, so I pulled an old tutu out of the dress up bin. I thought about chickens with tutus, or cats with tutus, but the dogs love me best and won’t hate me forever for subjecting them to such audacity. Missy did give me her saddest puppy dog eyes. She then comforted Griffin (who actually wanted to wear the tutu, but was sad that he couldn’t figure out how to sit in it). Both dogs received many scratches and praises for what they had to put up with.
Happy 2-2 day. Yeah, I scheduled the post for 2:22am too. What fun would it be otherwise?
Longest lived stuffed toy
When we brought home Missy as a puppy a year and a half ago, my eldest picked out a stuffed animal for her to cuddle in her crate so she would miss her litter mates less. While other toys have come and gone, this stuffed jaguar has been a consistent companion.
The jaguar doesn’t stay in the crate anymore, but she still regularly brings it out for a tussle on the living room rug.
Dog identity crisis
When you bark like a dog, but identify with cats.
Musical beds
Sophie the cat is quite put out when Griffin the dog cuddles on her favorite couch.
So Sophie, out of spite maybe, takes Missy’s bed, much to Missy’s confusion (although honestly, Sophie looks quite perplexed as well).
Eventually, it all worked out the way it is supposed to, and at least Sophie and Missy are content.
Don’t worry about Griffin, his favorite place is in his crate where he can have some quiet time.
