I first got a cat named her Tuddy as in "I thought I saw a Puddy Kat, I did, I did, poor puddy go boom." Then I got the smaller of the 2 Airdales....she turned 8 on April 18th, got the big boy George last October from Airdale Rescue....very sweet boy....his former owner used to give him bottled water to drink...now it's the French version called Le Toilette. He's a 113 lber.... and turned 8 on Sept 24....
