Roxy + Peanut.

Lately I’ve been hearing some mumbled meows around the house. From what I can gather there’s a little bit of passive aggressive behavior going on (ignoring the litter box in favor of other areas and who knows what else) due to lack of blog fame.

Some other blogger’s pets (Paco, Morran, Chuck and nameless others) get screen time and, well, Roxy and Peanut don’t. I need to remedy this asap for the sake of my carpeting, so I’ll skip right to the introductions.


Name + Origin: Roxy, after the clothing line for surfers, natch
How We Met: given to me by my mom’s neighbors – straight from a farm in Arkansas!
Birthday + Sign: August 10 + Leo
Hobbies: sleeping, cleaning herself, hacking up hairballs from previous activity, flopping, chattering
Likes: lasers, bubbles, salty snack foods
Dislikes: when Peanut tries to get some lovin’, strangers
Arch-nemesis: my mom’s cat, Jack


Name + Origin: Peanut, the vet named him after a childhood pet
How We Met: adopted from Roxy’s vet after being abused and abandoned
Birthday + Sign: July 4 (approx.) + Cancer
Hobbies: keeping watch over the yard, acting as a garbage disposal for unwatched food, fetch, playing in water (I promise he’s a cat)
Likes: toys, bird watching, eating peoples’ hair, attacking Roxy
Dislikes: dairy, wearing hats, the doorbell
Arch-nemesis: the vacuum

So now, hopefully, we have all that cleared up. Welcome to Design Crush, Roxy and Peanut. You make my every day so much better.

    They're precious! I have two myself so I know the joys (& frustrations) that come with them.

    p.s. One of mine likes to play in water also 🙂

    Aww… adorable.
    I love cats.
    I can’t believe Peanut plays with water! Mine hates water.

    I love when I check Technorati (pretty much never…I'm the worst with that stuff!) and find a post that linked to me that I somehow missed! HOW I could've skipped a post on FURRY FRIENDS on your blog is beyond me! Paco and Roxy share the hairball hacking hobby in common. And Reggie and Peanut would get along famously, as they are both garbage disposals.

    Yay for rescuing animals…always makes me smile:)

    PS I love how they look like they're related!
