I’m Sugar! I’m being sneaky and using Mom’s computer downstairs. I thought I’d write a bit about myself.
I arrived at Mom and Dad’s house about 6 months before we left. I met them because they left food outside. One night the door was closed and it was getting cold. So I went around the corner and climbed up to their balcony. It wasn’t too hard. Boy was Dad surprised when I showed up at the door! He couldn’t believe it. He brought me inside, and we went downstairs. Dad opened the door so I wandered outside. I was used to that. I didn’t think too much about it, and later on went about my way. The next day, same thing. Darn downstairs door was closed so I climbed up again. That’s hard. There is something wrong with one of my legs and I couldn’t see too well out of my left eye. Well, when I showed up at the balcony door again, that was it. They decided that if I was that determined to come in, I could just stay. A couple of days later Mom took me to the doctor for a checkup. Unfortunately there wasn’t really anything they could do with the leg, but they did give her some medicine for my eye. It hurt and I didn’t like it. They would both have to work to put the drop in my eye. I guess that’s OK because now it’s much better.
About 6 months later we moved into this really big house! I love it. I’ve got lots of space, and get to spend a lot of time with mom and dad. They are great. They talk to me, and we have great conversations. I’m not sure that they understand me completely, but it’s fun. I get lots of petting, and I give lots of kisses. I like to do that.
That’s my story. I’ve got lots of stuff to talk about and I’ll be writing whenever mom isn’t using her computer.

It’s me Mautzi. The queen of the house. I get to come up here to the computer room a lot, and decided it was time to introduce myself.
When I was little someone decided that they didn’t want me, and left me near the sportzplatz in Lichtenau. It was Ok because a lot of people would come by and leave food for me. But it started to get colder, and I started to get a bit worried. One night this nice kid Nick came by and took me to his house. Oh, what a place! It was warm, and there was lots of food. I was really happy. But then I discovered a bit of a problem. There was this big yellow cat that also lived there and thought he was the boss. He always wanted to be the in charge, and I just don’t like that.
After a while he mellowed out, and we had a great time. We played, and had a few fights, but nothing major. He was a good old guy. After a few years, he seemed to be getting slower and slower. I could tell he wasn’t feeling well. Our people finally took him to the doctor and after that I didn’t see him anymore. I missed him, but it was nice to have the entire house to myself. It stayed that way until a couple of years ago. That’s when mom started adding cats to the house. I just didn’t like it.
We finally moved into the big house, and now I get to have part of the house all to myself. I like that. I get to go upstairs to the computer room, and also downstairs to do laundry. Well, someone has to check it. Then on other days I get to go outside when the weather is good. It’s fun!
So, that’s my story. I’m the oldest and can still get around with the best of them. Getting old isn’t so bad. At least that what I tell mom and dad.. 
Hi There!

I’m Rolly, and I finally got to get to the computer to write a bit about myself. I’m the only other guy in the house. Most of the time it’s nice. I get to snuggle whenever I want. Especially when Mom is trying to knit or read or something other than holding me. I like that. She never gets anything done if I’m around and notice what she is doing. I also like to visit her when Dad goes outside. I’d like to go with him, but he usually doesn’t let me. So instead I run and get my cuddles with Mom.
I’ve been with the family for a bit over a year. I used to roam the neighborhood and thought I had it made. But this wonderful family decided to put some food out, and I was hungry. Then it started to get cold, and I found that I could go inside to get warm. Dad’s computers were always on, and that kept the room where we went nice and warm. Mom also found some old blankets to lay on, and boy, were they comfortable.
One day I wasn’t feeling so good. I thought it was just a cold but Mom thought otherwise. She took me to the doctor, and while I was there they gave me medicine to help. When I woke up, something had changed, and I no longer wanted to wander the neighborhood. I’m not sure what happened, but I guess it was OK. I started feeling a lot better, and really enjoyed being inside where it was nice and warm.
Then all of a sudden about a year ago, we up and left the old place that was really sort of small, and came to this big house. I get to stay upstairs with Lulu, and for the most part it’s OK. We have lots of toys, and the TV to watch. It’s nice and there is room for both of us.
So that’s my short story. I’m glad to be here, and wouldn’t go back to the old ways. I’ll be back when I get a chance and let you know what’s happening around the house. Well, at least in the part I get to stay in.
