I have both, but these two boys were being too cute not to share.

One black and white cat, commonly referred to as a tuxedo, sprawls out on a desk in the sun. His eyes are closed and his head looks like it is resting on the glass of the window. Trees and green vegetation are visible through the window as are a number of small smudges, cat nose in size, as the light filters through the glass pane. A sleak gray cat lays very close to the others belly. His front paws are outstretched and just touch the back paw of the black and white cat with pink and black pads visible.

We've reached the "taller than the GSPs" depth of snow here for this March blizzard. Weather app of 12 inches is a bit short of the actual measure at our home.

Measuring stick standing upright in a field of snow. Snow approximately reaches 25 inches. Conifer trees can be seen in the distance. The sky looks frosty as snow continues to fall.

I feel this! I have a nest that placed itself right at the entrance of the walk to the house from the driveway, where it happens my pollinator and kitchen garden are both adjacent to. So I've currently put up a warning sign and roped it off because I can't think of a way to treat it.

A common milkweed leaf is being chomped on by a yellow, white, and black monarch butterfly caterpillar. It is on the underside of the leaf. Next to it, a yellow and black bumblebee sits resting and drying off.

A brown and white dog with large floppy ears and jowls is sitting waiting for a ball to be thrown. A white and brown dog is visible out of focus behind the first dog, waiting to steal the said ball from the first dog. The same white and brown dog had feigned exhaustion after returning from a bird hunt mere minutes before. The picture is taken in a short grass prairie. It is fall, the grass is brown and the sky is blue. The image is a screenshot of a phone lock screen.

Toby asks for more, but sorry boys, not today

A white dog with a brown head and spots stairs longingly somewhere off camera. His face is prematurely graying, making him look very stern with robust gray eyebrows. He is, however, a very sweet and goofy dog.

I relented and gave them each a small piece (grapefruit isn't toxic but very acidic and may cause gut irritation, so not a recommended treat). Ash thinks it is sooo good

A brown dog with white flecks and closed eyes rapturously enjoys munching a small piece of grapefruit. The wood deck beneath his mouth has a large wet spot from drool as he anticipated being given a piece.

Two of my blessings that keep me focused on what I can do in the moment, begging for some grapefruit following our Saturday run.

A brown and white freckled dog and a white dog with brown spots sit with eyes focused. They are looking at a human hand that is holding 2 small slices of grapefruit and profusely drooling.

Chippewa Valley showed up! #handsoff #eauclaire

Hundreds of people surround a park pavillion, some carrying signs.

I now realize that I have been taking lots of cuddle puddle shots lately and not enough play action. 😀

A handsome dog with dropped ears looks imploringly at the photographer for some tasty snacks. He is mostly brown with some white and goes by the name of Ash.

A mostly white dog with a brown head and spots looks at the photographer. He has a wool coat on and orange booties. He's waiting for a ball to be thrown. Snow speckles his face from his last search. His name is Toby.

Recharging our batteries by enjoying some fresh snow. We prefer a but more, but any snow is appreciated by this crew.

A German shorthaired pointer dog in a coat points down along a trail blanketed by fresh snow. Another GSP stands behind, also in a coat but chewing on a ball.

Gotta celebrate the positive! this good boy turned 10 this week! Ash joined the household a little over 6 years ago. He lives with Addison's disease which we have to manage with monthly injections and pills but otherwise doesn't stop him.

A happy liver roan German shorthaired pointer waits less than patiently for a ball to be thrown. There is about an inch of snow on the ground, and he is wearing a lighted vest as the winter sun sets.

Two adorable German Shorthaired pointer dogs, a liver roan and a white with liver patches, cuddle together on a couch.

All three. They occasionally let me exchange their hunting vests for some Ohio State gear.

It's slightly early for the season, but this is one of my favorite photos from the past. Isaiah (sweet face on the right) isn't with us anymore, but his sweater has been shared with the youngest in the crew.
