Coconut and an Oreo

I’m sorry I’ve been MIA for a bit!  I’ve been busy enjoying our new furry addition.  I was a bit worried that my dream of Coconut and Oreo actually being friends would never come true.  Yes, I do understand that we’re talking about a cat and a dog here and historically cats and dogs are not BFF’s.  Mr. C tried to tell me this.  I argued back that I get email forwards with pigs and dogs being friends, monkeys and tigers sleeping together, and elephants and cats that have become inseparable.  He gave me that “my wife is crazy” look and then told me that the emails are sent because the instance is RARE.  I still didn’t give up though.  Guess who was right?  Me of course!  Do you really think I’d write about it if I was wrong??? 

I think we can now say that Coconut and Oreo are friends, or strong acquaintances.  Coconut loves having a friend and she really doesn’t care too much about her toys anymore since she has a live one now!  We’ve caught them sleeping close a few times although usually Coconut gets freaked out when Oreo tries to lay down next to her.

We don’t watch as much TV anymore.  This is partly because Oreo chews through cords, leaving us with no way to watch TV, but also because Oreo and Coconut are pretty darn entertaining.  They take turns chasing each other, although neither of them has a clue of what to do once they catch the other.  Lately Oreo likes to run after Coconut and chew on her tail or paw.  He also likes to clean her.  See, BFF’s. 

Today’s post is a little less writing and a little more watching.  Here are a couple of our favorite videos since adding Oreo to our family.  If you came to our house we’d make you watch them.   Yes, MAKE.
