My blogfather Jeff put Puff's sleepyhead picture up -- at very top of the blog logo! -- at the wonderful new pet blog he has started (in partnership with Michael Demmons), Tarazet. Everyone who has a pet should visit this site. And everyone who doesn't have a pet should also visit this site. You might change your mind.

By way of bragging by a proud owner, here's an enlarged view of the same shot:

Here's Puff smiling (obviously in anticipatory contemplation of his new-found fame):

You can also see Puff smiling in the Tarazet's blog logo too. He's fourteen, and he'll be smiling down from somewhere else much too soon. It's one of the tragedies of loving an animal; like loving a person. No matter how invaluable or how loved we are, we're all mortal.

Thanks from Puff, Jeff! And thanks, Michael!

Thanks from Eric too!

UPDATE: I have been reading about Jeff's cat Rainbow. A long struggle, and she's not getting better. Readers might want to send along some words of sympathy, to Jeff. And Rainbow.
