Mom and Dad packed up this past weekend, with baby sister in-tow, and headed the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont.

My name is Otis, but when I’m in trouble (which hardly ever happens, except for when I jump up on the counter), my mom calls me Otis Joe. Why Joe? Well, My great grandpa’s real name (my mom’s grandpa) is Ronald, but as the story goes, furr no rhyme or reason Ronald’s grandfather called him […]

It’s hard work being a party animal. Now that my birthday week has passed, it’s time some for some serious R&R – all day, everyday. There are just somany places to catnap; it’s hard to pick my favorite so I switch it up to keep things exciting (and to keep my pet parents guessing where […]
