He's cute, he's furry and he likes to lick - a lot!No, I'm not talking about Curtis. I'm talking about Mocha, the newest addition to our family.
For a pint-sized Pekingese puppy, he sure can create a lot of havoc at our house. Despite two crates, two visits from Chem Dry (the carpet cleaners), two adults arguing about who let him out last, and one cat who'd prefer he found a new address; Mocha still manages to win the hearts of our two little girls.
In fact, Sydney gave Mocha a pet-name this weekend. It was so creative and cute that it's now his official name: Mochapelli. That's MO-KA-PEL-LEE, like Kokopelli, a word she learned a few weeks ago.
To the left is a picture of Claire and our little Southwestern pup since I couldn't find one of Sydney.Long story short: it's a good thing I love animals, not to mention Claire and Sydney. Otherwise, Mr. Mochapelli could have found himself hitching a ride back to Texas to live with my sister-in-law, Pam, who gave him to us this past Christmas. (Nothing personal, P, you know I love you.)
So despite the fact that he's a dog, he's officially part of our family. However, for the record; I want the world to know that when it comes to status, Mochapelli falls second to my Rio Cat. Because as Claire says (courtesy of a lesson from Papa Tamas), "Cats Rule. Dogs Drool."
=^..^=Meow for now. -T

He is cute! And, with a name like that, he's got to be a keeper!
