Meet Poppy

This is Poppy. She is a teensy weensy mutt. I'm sure there is some fancy name for her mix of cuteness but I've never had any problem with mutts. I know her mom is a Shih Tzu but her dad may be any number of small dogs living in a Denver neighborhood surrounded by train tracks and industrial parks. She was loved by the teenage boy who had raised her to this point but they had too many dogs and she had to go.

Poppy came to live with us yesterday. Otis the cat doesn't care. Mulder is hiding and might pee on things to let us know he isn't too pleased. He does that if I make something stinky for dinner or if I look at him funny. We decided we couldn't let one cat's bladder dictate our lives completely.

So far, so good. She slept through the night in her crate and is warming up to all of her new family members.
