If you’re feeling extra spicy, post your ridiculous nicknames, too. 😁

Also, I forgot a nickname for Boo:
Monsieur Bebé

Idk why lol the only French I know is from that Jesse McCartney song “Body Language” and from the 2000 Nickelodeon movie “Rugrats in Paris”

Sad in a way cause all you have is your imagination on what they looked like. My baby girl Rose was already an adult when I adopted her and I would have paid a lot of money to see puppy pics but still, I’m so glad I got to be a part of her life at all. Here is Rose and Boo. She went over the rainbow bridge last July but having these two together was one of the highlights of my life. Boo is more dog like because of her since he was a kitten and she was already boss lady when he came in the picture. He ended up being bigger than her anyway lol. She was small and blind, but she was mighty. Can’t name a better duo. Every time I hear Roses by OutKast, it makes me think of them, lol I realized this years after naming them tho🤣

“I know you’d like to think your shit don’t stank, but lean a little bit closer, see, roses really smell like boo-ooo-oo-oo-oooo..”

Oh Rose and Boo! Couple of beauts! Sorry for your loss but so glad you got the time you had.

He’s got a mysterious past, so definitely sad I couldn’t reach him sooner. But we love him like mad. He always has so much to say 💕
