    Yep. It will be subsonic. The CCI stuff I'm speaking of is designed for semi auto cycling. This test was done with a ruger 10/22

    Lila cat is sleeping on her heat pad again as she has done most nights since we found her and brought her home :) I'm grateful though she is not the nicest cat, we all still care about her. I'm still burning with curiosity of what happened. Either way she is here on her own free will and not afraid of whatever scared her off (read snowbird's aggressive dogs running loose) and seems to be content again. Just wish I knew wtf happened!

    Idk, Neighbor moved last summer and abandoned their "barn cats" which have been here looking for a food source. But why now instead of last fall, know what I mean?

    So incredibly hard!!! She had an awesome dignified fun life full of love, and yes, did right by her, a dignified death too.

    We called her Elsie Baby when she was the youngest of 4 dogs when she came to us at 7 weeks old. Never stopped, called her Elsie Baby her whole life. I've never met a sweeter dog. Don't get me started on her maternal instincts despite being spayed at a young age when I had kiddo. Every time I turned away she would go lick infant kiddos peachfuzz hair into a Jerry Lewis hair do. She's free of her body that didn't work well anymore. OMG kiddo learned to stand up using her, two fist fulls of skin and hair to hoist herself to standing and Elsie was as proud of kiddo as I was :)

    The breeder up where I'm getting my English Labrador next week will have their next litter next Spring.

    Otherwise I know of a couple breeders in northern Wisconsin.

    Just show up with one. 91666094_2609285399325729_2767495222655975424_o.jpg

    I really don't know why she is so dang opposed to labs. No reason for it IMO. :loco: :crazy:

    Maybe she never had a dog that listened and was trained? I dunno. The ones she had since I had met her lacked severely in obedience/training....:whistle:

    It has been 8 weeks.
    Where did the time and our itty bitty kitties go??? We look at them and they have gotten BIG (well, Madi is still small, but still around 4 lbs. Murphy is pushing 5lbs, Myles around 4.5.
    Murphy and Madi, Myles separate. Good luck getting a great if not good shot of all 3 (still waiting)..

    Thank you friends! There is a buff/camel colored throw blanket on the couch and I keep thinking it's her when I catch a glimpse of it in my peripheral vision. And also looking down before I move my desk stool (on wheels) because she's been laying under here the last few years and I didn't want to roll over her feet/tail etc.

    WWW and kiddo went to ACE hardware today for Mother's day flowering baskets for me, saw this video while they were out and LOST IT. This is so much like kiddo and Elsie, pic below.

    I am sorry for your loss. It is incredibly hard when we lose our furry friends, and the decision to let them go with dignity is not one that is easy to make. Hopefully the memories and knowing she is running free, without pain over the rainbow bridge brings you and your family peace.

    At that age they are so fun - but so active getting pictures as good as you got is difficult. Their curiosity, although at times is maddening, is cool to watch.

    We wish they could last forever. I hope the kiddo gets over it. Doubly hard, being housebound away from her friends.
