Emma	Beau and Emma April, 2009

Paulette adopted Emma from our Adoption Center in June, 2007. She was 5 years old. Her former owner had to go to a nursing home. When Paulette first got her, Emma liked to butt heads and have Paulette rub her chin on Emma's head. Emma's favorite pasttime is bird and squirrel watching.

Beau-Beau was found along a road in April, 2008 after his mother was killed by a car. He and his litter mates were take to Rutherford Veterinary hospital for physical exams and first shots. Then they were taken to a foster home.

When Paulette adopted Beau-Beau in May, 2008, Beau-Beau was six weeks old. Emma was 6.

Paulette writes:

***Beau is quite a character.  He likes to play fetch just like a dog.  His current favorite fetch toy is a pecan nut that had a green outer shell at one time that is now hard and solid.  Sometimes he will drop it in my lap to throw or sometimes he drops it at my feet, then slaps my foot to get my attention to throw it.
He also likes to chew, especially on file folders and magazines.  When he's not doing that, he attacking poor Emma.  When I got her she was declawed, so she doesn't have much to defend herself.  He bites me also when I play with him.  When I yell, he let's go and looks at me, like, what did I do.....sooooo innocent!  lol

***For the most part Beau and Emma get along well.  However, he loves to aggravate her.  And sometimes he is too aggressive.  He loves to bite her, mostly on her butt.  All she does is hiss and tries to run from him.  She was declawed when I got her so she can't knock him for a loop.  I do think that sometimes she brings it on herself by flicking her tail back and forth.  Beau finds this tantilizing and can't resist trying to get it.

***I think the funniest thing I've seen him do is, they were both sitting on the bookshelf in the living room looking out the window.  Emma decided she was bored and jumped down and was walking across the room casually.  Of course Beau was right behind her, but he made a strategic move by jumping on the footstool and flying through air spread eagle for about 3 feet onto her back.  He looked just like a flying squirrel.
