Sorry for the delay!

Well, life seems a little calmer for me lately, thank goodness. I must appologize for my lack of diary updates as of late, as things have been calmer for me but they've been pretty hectic for my Mum and Dad.

The good news is that I haven't seen those dogs around for a couple of days. I don't care if anyone reads this and is offended, but my Dad shot both dogs with a pellet gun! My Dad used special bullets...I'm not sure what they're called but they are like capsules filled with little pellets that spray when they are shot from the gun. It's pretty harmless, but can still cause a nasty bruise and a terribly stinging sensation. The dogs weren't hurt of course, well, I'm sure they were a little sore but more than anything it seemed to frighten them. We haven't seen them around the house since. We think that the neighbours were picking out little pellets from their dogs backsides and realized that my Mum and Dad were quite serious about the situation here...and it seems as though for the time being the neighbours are keeping the dogs in the garage for most of the day. OR it may simply be that since the weather has gotten colder and rainier lately, that the dogs have just decided to stick closer to home. One thing is for sure, Mum and Dad mean business and are making sure those dogs never hurt me again.

I myself am doing great. I like to go out late at night just before bed now. I feel safest when it's dark out because I know those dogs don't come around that time of night. I can hide much better in the shadows...

My wounds are completely healed and my fur is really coming in nicely! My bum is covered in a soft peach fuzz. Mum thinks it's really cute. It's awfully chilly on my rear-end when I go outside though. I'd say all my fur will be grown back in by Christmas for sure.

I'll keep updating my diary of course, but I certainly hope that I have no more exciting tales to tell for a while. Out of my nine lives I think I'm down to about 5 now. Geesh.

Seeing as I have so much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving, I'd like to put a short list here today. My friends Kirby, Kody and Keetah did this on their diary so I thought it was a great idea to do it myself.

Things I am Thankful for on this Thanksgiving

I am thankful for my Mum, who loves me more than anything has ever loved me in my entire life.
I am thankful for my Dad who shot those mean dogs in the bum.
I am thankful for my sister Smeagol even though I want to beat her up sometimes.
I am thankful that I am no longer the 'male black and white' in foster care.
I am thankful that those mean dogs did not kill me when they attacked me.
I am thankful that I only lost my tail and my genitals during the attack...I could have lost everything.
I am thankful for my vet. Even though I don't like him I know I would be dead without him.
I am thankful for the staff at the vet clinic. Those ladies took extra special care of me while my Mum couldn't be there. They made my stay much less stressful than it could have been.
I am thankful that Bullitt and Stimpy don't bother me at all.
I am thankful that I have a special bed just for me.
I am thankful that I have Shalimar to pick on.
I am thankful that Annabelle seems to be warming up to me.
I am thankful that Oliver sent me to my family.
I am thankful that Oliver looks over me and keeps me safe so Mum will not be brokenhearted.
I am thankful for the cereal Mum gives me every morning because I'm her 'special little guy'.

And last but certainly not least...

I am so thankful for all my wonderful friends at Caster and their Moms and Dads. Without you, my Mum would have had no support at all during this horrible ordeal. Thankyou from the very bottom of my heart!

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving everyone!

Bossy and family
