This is B's Resting 'Do I Look Like I Care?' Face. It's very similar to his Resting 'Don't Even Think About Booping My Nose' Face. Context is everything. 🤷🏽‍♀️

We went to Auntie Christel's house today to supervise her holiday preparations. We pbly should've taken more pictures of the actual food (it was gorgeous) but... 🤷🏽‍♀️ Merry Christmas Eve everybody!!

One of my favorite things to find under the tree! Sonny has had a very very ruff 2024 (getting old and medical 'puzzles' can suck it) but he's remained sweet as can be despite all the tests, poking, prodding and never-ending symptoms. All he wants for Christmas is a solution that makes him feel better, is that too much to ask?? 🤞🤞❤️💚

Saturdays were absolutely MADE for snuggling with adoptable doggos (I had my devil's horns on trying to get this sweet girl home with Amy), giving back (making dog toys for ), supporting besties and their HUGE day of volunteer events in the and catching up with girlfriends. Thanks for joining me Amy Sue & Tina!

When you lose a pet, some things are harder to let go of than others. This cat tree has seen MUCH MUCH better days, and it is absolutely one of those things. It's 19+ years old, and is the first cat tree I bought Romeo when he came into my life. Some of my favorite pics of him are in that cat tree. He LOVED that cat tree, and as a result, BENTLEY has come to love that cat tree. BUT there was no amount of cleaning that was going to save that cat tree, so today was the day. I gathered my resolve and my assistants and put together the new tree (that I've had in my house for 2yrs) and dismantled the old. Not gonna lie, I shed a tear for that old gross thing... for the white fur that still graced it and the memories made with it. Oof, I sure do miss that sweet old kitty. There's just never enough time. xoxo 💔💔

It's been four years.

Four years of getting the stink ear daily.
Four years of those massive murder mittens dragging in every lizard, cricket, and bird they can get their toe beans on.
Four years of chewing through absolutely every thin cord in the house (or straw, or plastic, or chip bag).

AND

It's been four years of gratitude for the love and attention he gave Romeo before he passed.
Four years of laughter when he violently head bunts Enzo and Sonny as they wait patiently for dinner.
And four years of love bite reminders to stay in the moment... and give more pets!

Happy Birthday B!! 🥰

Liv turned 11 today. ELEVEN!! We celebrated by chasing the sunset. 🥰 It seems like just yesterday that she and her sister Sparkle were brought into , huddled in the back of a cat carrier, eyes as big as saucers. They were too too skinny, matted, and covered in tiny seed ticks. Within a week I took them both to foster, and frankly the rest is history! Aside from tiring faster on walks/hikes (me too girl), and a little more gray on her face, you'd never guess she was solidly into her senior years. I don't know how many years we have left, but I'll cherish every moment until then. We're looking forward to celebrating with Sparkle & soon!

This is for our AZ Furrriends, anybody in the market for a sweet, house-trained, adorable pup? Or able to foster? Or help get him into a rescue? A friend found him in their neighborhood (Germann/Higley) a couple of days ago and they've been keeping him safe, but their resident pup isn't wild about having another pup in the house. No chip, no collar, and they've posted in loads of Facebook groups but no luck so far. Vet estimates him to be 3ish yrs old, with no obvious health concerns. Comment if you have any ideas or have a lead on somebody that can help! If not, please share and send him some positive juju for a soft furever landing. ❤️ 🐾 🏠 🙏

We’re just like you!

We LOVE our furry family, we want to live our best life together, and we can’t help but share what we learn and love with others.

Tami (Mom) is the human that was rescued by this adorable herd of furries. She’s a rescue advocate, entrepreneur, dreamer, and photographer- and has a passion for all things dog & cat. Her full-time side hustle is insurance. :)

Seven rescues make up the Crazy...


  • Murphy - 7yo white shihtzu: finicky, bossy, friendly, has a human foot-fetish (haha!) Sonny - 7’ish yo one-eyed cream/white shihtzu: very vocal, snuggly, excitable Olivia - 6yo brown morkie’ish mutt: sweet, cooperative, independent, trooper Enzo - 5yo blue-eyed lhasa mutt: tentative, prefers dogs to people (unless they have food)
