You asked for pictures... here is a sample of Christmas and Marta's visit in January.

Latest Bello update: his castration healed (hence the home-made Elizabithean collar and look of defeat), he has been experiencing separation anxiety with all my absences and I just learned that he is a great mouse catcher! Yes, I had a mouse in my house! I was annoyed. I was in the shower the day I saw the mouse in the bathroom. On the other side of the wall, I heard Bello sniffing, then a squeak. When I got out of the bathroom, Bello was playing with a still breathing but stunned mouse in the back yard. He cowered like he was expecting punishment but I praised him for a great job cating the mouse. Good boy Bello!!
