I moved to Fooville (joined FooPets) April 19,2010, just wanting a quiet place to write my novel. Looked around the place and found a little cottage that fit my meagar budget..............

Tofu and I live in a quaint country cottage, I've dubbed "Little Cottage on the Prairie", where I came to stay for awhile to be alone to write my "novel" (aka work on my real website). I invite no one into my home without an appointment (just hit the friend request button) and I expect you to respect my privacy if you are not a friend.

My only companion is my beloved Bengal cat, Tofu, and I like it that way.

It's been frustrating to furnish this little space due to the lack of funds (FD/FG), but I'm hoping my "novels" will bring in the money that I need to make a modest, humble, living.

Let me show you around as we stand in the middle of the room. The kitchen is on your right, duh! The livingroom is on your left, duh!. There is no bedroom to speak of so I sleep on the floor in that space in the livingroom. And there is a tiny bathroom behind me, which you can't see. That's it, now get out so I can get to work.

I'm not sure what I think of the village yet, but as with any small village, some people are friendly and some you need to be wary of. Sadly, I have already met some "to be wary ofs". Not sure if this is the place I want to settle into long-term.

Shhhhhhhh, be vewy, vewy quiet. There is a wild rat living in my cottage. I named her Ratta. She is of the species, Rattus Norvegicus (Norway Rat). Tofu and I think she is pretty cool and we watch her go about her business every night. The tiny striped tent in the corner by the bookcase is where she sleeps, and the Precious Blue Diamond is in her stash so don't touch it. The Lounging Leprechan ended up in her stash as well but she has since destroyed it.

Finally I have my virtual computer hooked up, thanks to a village resident who has incredibly good prices on her sale items :) Now I can start writing my "novel".

It's been awhile since we moved into the village and Tofu has acclimated to his new home. Today I let him outside to play for the first time since we moved here. In real life my real cats are spayed or neutered and they are indoor only cats. This prevents them from killing the wildlife, adding to the pet overpopulation problem, becoming an irritation to the neighbourhood, or getting killed on the road (just think about how the driver who killed your cat feels).

Now that you can see where we live, and view our Country Cottage from the outside, you can see that we live in a wide open space with no neighbours and no traffic. Finally, elbow room and breathing space.

Looks like I need to do some yardwork....................picket fence, a few trees, maybe some chickens......................................

I was trying to hang the purple curtains in the livingroom and kitchen late last night (frustrating decoration tool) and I thought that maybe (?????) I would settle down here and become a (ClubFoo Member) resident of the village. I've made a few friends, but find I am still walking on eggshells with most residents.

I think it's because of the morals and ethics that I have gained over the years as a real pet-keeper, and I have been preaching these morals and ethics to others as a pet consultant and pet educator on and off the internet. I started this "job" when I was 14 years old, and it is a volunteer job. I was 6 years old when I received my first pet as a gift, a Parakeet named Cheeko He was my soul responsibility and I took his care seriously. I told him then, and I tell all of my pets, real or virtual, that "If you come into my home (adopted), or if you are born in my home (pet rats), you have my home as your forever home, for life". How many others have kept the same horse for 24 years?

I have grown attached to Tofu and I treat him the same way as I would a real pet. I respect him too much to abandon him at a shelter, sell him, or auction him off. If there ever comes a time that I have to rehome him he will go as a gift to a trusted friend (if I have any friends). If I don't have any friends he will be surrendered to a no-kill cat rescue group. Preferably one that specializes in his breed.

I ran into some very unsavory characters in the village square yesterday. I was so angry I started packing up to leave this town but then decided to drop everything and go for a walk in the park to cool off and maul over my choices. I met another resident who happens to be reputable breeder, whom I now call a friend. We got talking about breeding and breeding ethics and she has agreed to take me under her wing as my mentor should I choose to breed Tofu in the future.

I met some really cool people today, making me feel a little more comfortable about being here. I spent the day again buying at sales and decorating our home. Went grocery shopping for some much needed food. I'm getting tired of going out for meals and getting take-out. Tonight, I'm just going to lay back with a bowl of munchy-crunchy buttered popcorn, and a good book (cat tricks).

May 21,2010:
Well it looks like I'm going to settle down here. I find myself thinking about finding another piece of country properity. Something forested and safely away from traffic so Tofu can roam and act out his wild instincts. And moving into a bigger cottage that has a bedroom and a bigger bathroom. I don't need much, I can still live within my budget, so I don't become greedy. But I think I need a steadier income, gotta find a job (join ClubFoo). I took on a part-time job (Kwedit) yesterday but that ain't gonna give me much to live on.

This evening I went down to City Hall and registered to become a perminate resident here in FooVille (joined ClubFoo). I'm hoping that by doing this my life will become easier because up until now it has been very difficult and council (certain nasty FooPet members) have refused to listen to me. I still don't like how this town is run but at least now maybe I can sit in on some council meetings (exclusive ClubFoo Forum) and find out why they do what they do. Some questions about being a FooVille member (ClubFoo) that I have already asked as a non-resident (on the forum) have met with "inappropriate" responses from the council which confirms what I already believe to be true.

Time flies here too. I've already added an extention onto the cottage which is now my bedroom and I am in the process of decorating it. When I find that special piece of property for ToFu and I the whole house is going to have to be moved there.

Oh, and I changed the spelling of Tofu's name. It's now ToFu.

May 22,2010:
Change of address! We've moved! I found that special piece of property I was looking for. The bank approved the financing and I got the property early. It's a secluded, forested spot where ToFu can roam in safety. No landscaping required.

I've also started a bathroom addition.

I don't believe it! ToFu already has a new bed and I'm still sleeping on the floor! Well, at least I've moved into the bedroom instead of sleeping on the livingroom floor.

May 25,2010:
Having problems paying my Kwedit loan. Their payment form won't accept my Canadian postal code. Decided to get a substantial loan from the FooBank to complete renovations and additions to the cottage. Closing down the kitchen/livingroom for renovations. ToFu is going to have to be confined to the bedroom and bathroom and outside.

I've been working out in the backyard, putting on a patio and putting in a tulip garden.

Siamese

May 27, 2010:
I went to another council meeting last night (posted on the forums) and again council saw fit to turn down my ideas (3 posts flagged and removed). The thing that irks me the most is that they won't tell me how to properly address the council and there does not appear to be any real set of rules and regulations to be found at City Hall. Makes me feel that I am walking on eggshells here in the Village.

I've gone as far as I can go for now with the renovations. The FooMoney that I got from the bank has run out and payday isn't until June 20. The FooMoney went a long way in decorating which is good because it cost me $35.00 in real money to get the fake stuff. Now all I have are these silly diamonds (FooGems) to purchase stuff with and nobody in town seems to want to accept them as payment. With the meager funds (5FD) that I get each day I'll pick up bits and pieces for the house and yard. Unfortunately, this way of getting stuff insures that I miss out on the good deals. Yep, today I'm stuffed.

It didn't take long for ToFu to find and explore the private driveway. The smells of the trees, the plants, the air, and the earth, the wildlife.....it all must be fasinating to him.

Well, it's more like a bike trail but the scooter that I bought to get me into town navigates it easily enough. It's a looooooong way to the road from the house and ToFu and I take walks down this trail every day and watch the Monarch Butterflies.

For the most part the back yard, the tulip bed, and the front yard are finished. Contrary to what I said earlier I did end up doing some landscaping.

And then there was an unexpected added expense when I popped into the pet store and fell in love with a Siamese Fighting Fish (Betta) and of course he needed a bunch of stuff to make him happy. The fish's name is Joey, named after a real Betta, who looked exactly as this one does, that I had as a pet, and that Joey was named after my favorite seafood restaurant, "Joey's Only". Joey resides at the far end of the bedroom.

The inside of the house looks nothing like it did when I first introduced you to it. The livingroom and the kitchen are now two separate rooms. I added a bedroom and increased the size of the bathroom. The livingroom is done. I bought a witch's broom at an occult store. It's leaning up against the chimney by the front door. Handy for quick get-aways. Again, except for a few special pieces, the bathroom and the bedroom are done. The kitchen is a whole different story. I ran out of money and the kitchen is in shambles. I'm eating out again.

In my fantasy, this cottage is always clean. No hair on the furniture and no yack-ups anywhere. And the yard is always emaculate. No weeding required.

During one day of exploring the area on my scooter I came upon a "Sandy Beach". An unusually quiet beach and then I found out it was privately-owned. The owner said that ToFu and I could use the beach any time we wanted to.

I have pieces that were gifted to me by a Foofriend who is no longer with us (she left FooPets because of some mean people). When I am feeling especially vulnerable here in the Village, ToFu and I go and camp out on the grounds of the insane asylum. That way, it's just a short trip to the Loony-bin.

May 30,2010:
While shopping around FooVille yesterday I came across three abandoned Bengal Cats. I made a decision to foster them. Raspberry has been abandoned by her owner and I was the first one to discover her in this condition. The two boys, Scotch and Cheedah were being cared for by several people and I e-mailed each of them to get their permission to take over the boys' care. Then I made the decision to foster any abandoned and neglected Bengals that I find in town during my extensive shopping sprees. Please do not surrender your Bengals to me, and I am not rescuing Bengals from the shelters. I know that these are no-kill shelters and so the Bengals are in good hands when they are there. My fosters are cats that I alone find. I don't want to get inundated with Bengals because this breed is a different kind of cat to look after. They act very much like dogs, and like dogs, they take a little more work then the average cat.

May 31,2010:
I now volunteer as a Bengal Cat Foster Mom for WaggingTailsShelter. I was asked to take over the care of PBJTIME.

I've been puttering around the house and yard doing the renovations as best I can on meager funds. I had a whole list of items that I needed. Having spent many hours over the last 3 days making this list I find these items are no longer available because the rich folks were able to buy them outright whereas I have to wait up to a week to gather enough FooDollars together. I gave up and got out another substantial loan from the FooBank.

Today I've been going crazy buying what I need and continuing the renovations and tweaking each room to perfection. If you have come by for a visit you may have noticed that ToFu is never in the same room twice. That's because, like the dog he thinks he is, he's been following me from room to room "helping" me decorate.

WHAAAAAAAAA! I WILL NEVER GET SUCKED INTO ONE OF FOOPETS' SALES AGAIN!!!!!!! Saw the Bali Wooden Carving out of the corner of my eye one day while shopping and couldn't remember where I had seen it, who was selling it, or what the name of it was, but I wanted it for a fantasy scene. It came up on a FooPets sale and in fear of never finding it again I grabbed it for 10FD thinking that I had gotten a good deal.............only to find out afterwards that some members have it up for sell for 4FD. What a waste of hard-earned Foomoney. Live and learn I guess, ya gotta know your prices.

Hey, believe me when I tell you, if you are new to using the decoration tool and you are finding yourself getting frustrated with it, you will learn how to use it. It just takes lots of practice.

June 04,2010:
Earning FooDollars is a lesson in Frustration and Futility. I'm so close to finishing my scenes, all 15 of them, that I broke down and withdrew some more money from the FooBank. After a bit more work and decorating, we are all moved in and settled down in our Forested Country Life on the outskirts of FooVille.

Front Yard Scene - Done
Backyard Garden Scene - Done
The Lizard that is with ToFu in this scene is a Giant Madagasgar Day Gecko. Yes, he is a pet. His name is "Gack" because when ToFu and Gack first met ToFu sniffed him and the cat did a display that looked like he was going to throw up.
Tulip Garden Scene - Done
Walking Trail Scene - Done
The Rabbit that is with ToFu in this scene is a Holland Lop. Yes, he is a pet. His name is "Binkie" which is a word that describes the happy hippity-hop that rabbits do. He comes for walks with us, but mostly I carry him.
Livingroom Scene - Done
Kitchen Scene - Done
The box of toys stays in the kitchen, but as you've probably seen, ToFu drags his toys all over the house and even into the Front and Back Yards.
Bedroom Scene - Done
Kennels became available at FooMart so I bought one. There are many reasons to keep a kennel handy, vet trips and emergency evacuations from your home, are just two of them.
Crate Training
Emergency Evacuation
Betta Home Scene - Done
Bathroom Scene - Done
Oh the luxery of champagne and fresh fruit whilst soaking in the tub with a good book.
Beach Scene - Done
Fall Scene - Done
The pumpkin represents Thanksgiving and Halloween. In real life we do not celebrate these holidays because of commercialism, hype, and hyprocrytical attitudes.
Winter Scene - Done
The wreath represents Christmas. In real life we do not celebrate this holiday because of commercialism, hype, and hyprocrytical attitudes.
Insane Asylum Scene - Done
I'm spending too much time there
Cat Magic Fantasy Scene - Done
I was wondering where that cat went when he went out at night. The owl's name is "Who?", he's one of my Familiars.
Bengal King Scene - Done
His Royal Highness's favorite dream. The Black Panther's name is "Bagheera", he's ToFu's body guard.

I have decided not to attend any more council meetings (won't be posting on the ClubFoo Forum). It hasn't done me any good so far.

Abyssinian

June 07,2010:
Over the weekend I made plans to welcome into our home an Abyssinian Kitten and a Beagle Puppy via conversations with the owners of both. I'm on pins and needles waiting for the birth of the litter from which my new Aby Girl will come from. I have reserved her from MacLady. I've already named her. From two Egyptian names I am calling her Safiya Khepri. The two names together, Pure and Morning Sun, say to me, "Pure as the Morning Sun". It combines her status as a Purebred, her golden coat, and a friend's desert scene for her own Abyssinian.

Nickle is a well-loved Purebred Beagle who I'm going to adopt from PurebredBreeder101. Nickle was named by his owner/breeder and I see no reason to call him by any other name. Nickle is 20 days old today. I can't bring Nickle home until ToFu and I have settled in with our future Abyssinian so until then I have the honor of taking over his care.

Of course I can't leave well enough alone. Over the weekend and today I have been putting together some new scenes for each of them, adding three more scenes making a total of eighteen in all. I withdrew yet another sum of Foomoney from the bank. I've spent $160.00 CAN on this game so far............yeah, I'm hooked, and I know I'm going to be very upset when I see my bank statement.

So adding to the growing scene list:
The Turquoise Room Nickle's indoor room, and yet another addition to our little cottage.
Space to Play - Nickle's outdoor area. Out in the back yard, behind the porch garden is a meadow that I have fenced off for Nickle's safety and I am proceeding with the landscaping and building a doghouse for him.
Desert Queen - the Arabian Nights Tent scene is Safiya's own special space.

I continue to do work inside and outside even though I said these scenes were done. I added more to Cat Magic, and I built a FooPets Sustainable House out beside the sunflowers. I'm now growing my own produce.

June 09,2010:
I rearranged the time line and decided to get the puppy first. Today I was on pins and needles in anticipation until the time that I could adopt Nickle and welcome him into our home. I have no idea what ToFu thinks of him but so far they haven't met. Tomorrow Safiya will be born.

I've been decorating the backyard for Nickle as I find landscaping supplies being sold for FooGems. I even managed to buy a country door and a weathered window for the cottage, which is good, because I'm tired of all the bugs coming in.

I would like to become more self-sufficient and bring in a goat for milk and some chickens for their eggs.

Miniture Pinscher

June 11,2010:
I was awake and on the computer 2 hours before Bacardi was due to have kittens. I took care of my pets and my fosters to while away the time. ToFu and my foster Bengals were in fine form this morning. All of them, except Rose, caught the mouse on the very first toss. Rose is a bit of a clumsy cat. She caught the mouse after nine misses. Or maybe she has me trained to stick around and play longer.

I got back to Bacardi 2 minutes before the birth and watched the whole thing. It was a piece of cake for Bacardi, Horus looked on with disinterest, and seven baby Abyssinians popped into the cat bed. I had reserved a female with MacLady, owner of Horus, but to my horror there were no females in the four that she got. My heart sank, I cried, I decided that I was going to give up looking for an Abyssinian kitten. Then I composed myself, and quickly made contact with Bacardi's owner who had two females. Other people were messaging in asking for a kitten. It took three hours of holding my breath wondering if I was going to be the one chosen to be the owner of the low-stat girl. In the end, she was mine. What a roller coaster ride, and now I'm crying tears of joy. I put a ten FooDollar deposit on her and I pay the other forty FooDollars when she is weaned. Little Safiya Khepri was born at 10:47am. She is a 2/5 stat, Gen2 Abyssinian http://www.foopets.com/breeding/26943. I can't stop myself from going back to see her over and over and over again today.

Tonight I am working on the scenes for Nickle and Safiya.

I donated three scenes, 2 Modern Flat and 1 Playground, to WaggingTailsShelter, to be given to pet owners who adopt a pet from this helter.

June 12,2010:
Ok, when you get to the end of our long walking trail/scooter driveway you come to a country road. If you turn left it's a fair drive to our secluded beach. If you turn right............well, I've never explored down that way before. Since getting Nickle our walks have been longer and even though ToFu comes with us he stops at the end of the trail and turns around and goes home. Nickle and I go on. Today we found an abandoned farm. No other animals around except for a resident Red Fox. He doesn't seem to mind us being there, so we can stay and play in an even bigger space. My throwing arm is going to bulk up at this rate.

Later I was at the coffee shop in the village and I overheard a couple talking about down-sizing their hobby farm. Next thing I know I have the chickens I've been saving up for, and the coop was free.

Did some more landscaping in the front yard. Decided to leave the shovel right were it was since I'm always shovelling crap around here.

And of course I went to visit Safiya several hundred times today.

Tonight I worked on the scene, Our Forest Home. That's it, no more, I'm done working on this scene. Added three more scenes, Fox and Hound, Bengal Castle, and Safiya's Desert. Worked on The Turquoise Room. I have 21 scenes now. I'm having too much fun with this, and admittedly, I have lost my pets. Can't remember what scene I last left them in.

German Shepherd Dog

June 20,2010:
I have absolutely NO will-power. I kept going back to visit MacLady's Silver Tabby Litter http://www.foopets.com/breeding/26666. I became attracted to an LHST female that MacLady had temporarily named Esp. I reserved this little girl and started making arrangements to bring her home after I got Safiya settled in. Her nickname is going to remain ESP (Extra Special Purr). Her Mom and Dad were named after East Indian Gods and Goddesses and so staying with that theme I have named her Sita Devi. I have made up a pink girly room for her. Safiya will be my Queen and Sita will be my Princess. Sita and her siblings were weaned today at 9:44pm MST and I watched the whole thing happen. I was the first to pet her. I was the first to play the mouse game with her. Now, I'm trying to make arrangements to bring her home around the time that Safiya is weaned and ready to come home.

I also have plans to bring home a Male White Mix cat and a Miniture Schnauzer.......... Some day.

Jack Russell Terrier

June 23,2010:
I not only don't have any will-power, I also don't have any patience. I decided to bring Sita home before, instead of after, bringing Safiya home. So I paid for the little muffin and brought her home yesterday morning. She has settled into her pink room very nicely, doesn't appear to have any complaints. It was her first night away from her family and she was a happy happy kitten when I checked in on her. She's a good catcher of mice already. It'll be a few days before Sita is allowed to go outside, not until she acclimates to her new home, but you will see her running around the house while ToFu and Nickle are outside.

Boston Terrier

June 25,2010:
Sita has settled in well. She's still in her room this morning. ToFu and Nickle have been sniffing under the closed door to her room so they know someone else is in the house.

Excitement is in the air, Safiya and her littermates are being weaned this morning. I took care of ToFu, Nickle and Sita, and then I went around taking care of my fosters and always keeping an eye on the time. At 10:41am the weaning took place and again I was the first one there to ooo and awe and play with my new kitten. Within an hour Safiya was home. Sita and Safiya have already met and they play together. ToFu is watching and trying to decide if he wants to play with girls. Nickle is too boistrous right now to play gently so I have to keep them separate for now.

My Bad, in the excitement of bringing a new kitten into my home I forgot to go back and feed my last foster, Rose. I friend dropped by and took care of her for me.

Last night I was playing with MacLady's White Mix cat, Glacier. I checked out his family tree and his breeder, White-Diamonds, and the next thing I know I'm discussing reserving a White Mix cat of my own. Meet Clover. He will be renamed Valiant when he comes home, and the Harlequin Room is his room, no matter what the other pets say about that.

Oh my yes, these FooPets keep me sane.........except right now I'm going in sane. I have a White Mix cat reserved that I will be picking up in July. A Schnauzer was next on the list until Felinestrange announced that Grendal was breeding. The Schnauzer is now on the back burner, and some day I hope to get a Russian Blue. Tonight I've been shopping to put together two more scenes for the future pets. Think I'm moving from FooVille anytime soon? I guess I'm here to stay :)

Siberian Husky

June 30,2010:
Wow, what a weekend! One of my real cats had an IBS flare-up and I nursed her through it for three days. I'm not good when one of my real cats is ill and my mind is kinda numbed and blurred as far as what all went on for the past few days. I was depressed and talked a friend. I hope she understood. As expected, I came up with the Foobucks and Valiant came home earlier then expected. I have been discussing with Felinstrange of possibly getting a Nebelung kitten from her when they are born. Akasha and her boy Grendal are breeding. This is a new breed that has been added to the FooPets family and what's more, the FooPets Team chose to make it a Vampire Cat in honor of the Twilight Movie Triligy. This is a very expensive breed and I really, really want one so I'm watching my FooBucks and buying in FooGems wherever possible.

Nebelung Cats

My little cottage is now akin to Dr. Who's TARDIS. It may look small on the outside, but it's getting huge on the inside as pets continue to come into my home.

I have been in the basement for the last 5 days, cleaning it up and making renovations for a new addition, I hope. Taking inspiration from Magnus' scene, a Bengal belonging to mindspan, aka Felinestrange, I have been working on it to accommidate a Vampire cat. At one end of the room is a sitting area, and if you turn around you will see that it is also a bedroom, just like the the Bedroom and Betta Home scenes. This will be guest bedroom for anyone who dares to sleep with the Vampire. Mwahahahahahaha .

I LOVE Valiant!. He's a beautiful cat. He's "My Knight in a Shiny White Coat". Upon closer inspection of his family page I see that he is the only 5/5 stat of the lot, including his mom and dad. I wasn't comparing stats when I fell in love with him on White-Diamonds' profile page, but now that I've had the time to check the page, all I can say is WOW. Sadly, his sister Snowpaw is being severely neglected by her owner so I notified a shelter of her plight.

The Harlequin Room, that is Valiant's room, is not easy to decorate. The checkered print is not a painted wall, but material that is stapled to the wall and allowed to flow, giving the illusion that the room is round and not square. There's one more piece I want for that room and it's the red masquarade mask with black feathers. Seems to suit the theme I unintentionally developed for my cats; King ToFu, Queen Safiya, Princess Sita, Knight Valiant. There's a future Russian Blue who will be my Prince. The mask will make the room pop when it is enlarged and put on the wall in the corner. Same idea as the copper cat mask in my FooBedroom.

While working on the Vampire room and the guest bedroom it started to storm outside so everyone stayed indoors today. I started a room for a future Miniture Schnauzer. I've been tweaking everyone's profiles including my own. Working on everyone's rooms. I broke down and went to the bank for another loan, and spending more real money so I could keep working on my scenes. For the first time I earned my limit of 10,000 FooGems for the day. My head is spinning with getting three new kittens in one month, and there are more pets on the way.

A pictorial view of where we live.................

This is the quiet country road that we live on. To your left, where the leaves are piled up, is the beginning of the trail that leads to the cottage. Straight ahead is the private beach. Quite frankly I am beginning to think that this road is actually the private driveway, albeit a very long driveway, to the peoples' home who own the beach because there is nothing else up that way. Even though this is a very quiet road I still thought it best to put up the caution sign. It's been a very long time since anyone else has lived here that I just wanted to let everyone know that there was again life in this neck of the woods. Behind you, where you have just come from, is farm country. Not too far from here is that abandoned farm where the fox lives and where Nickle and I play ball. I used scene, "Autumn Trail".

This is the walking trail that goes from the country road to the cottage. There's no room for a car to get down this narrow trail so you'll have to park it on the side of the road. No you won't get lost in the forest, there's only one trail, but it is a ten minute walk to our home. That's Binky on the side of the trail. There was a stump there so I hollowed it out. Binky uses this little house when it's raining out, or when he gets tired of walking with us, this is where he stays until we come back and pick him up. I hope you enjoy the Monarch Butterflies? There seems to be a lot of them. I used the scene, "Green Trail"

At the end of the trail is our front yard. I've tried to be as self-sufficient as possible. A wind turbine provides electricity, A green house to grow produce, a nanny goat for milk, and chickens for their eggs. I used the scene, "Go Evergreen!"

To your right is the tulip garden. Sometimes I'm out here until after dark so a sun jar, a solar-powered cell, provides light to get back to the house. There is a lot of wildlife around our home and I want to let them know I'm around. I used the scene, "Bed of Tulips"

This is the porch that I built in the backyard. It was a lot of work but, as you can see, it was well worth it for providing relaxation. Sometimes I fall asleep out here. That's my Gecko, Gack, sunning himself on the porch. I used the scene, "Garden of Eden"

Out beyond the pine bushes that line the porch is the dogs' space to play. I used the scene, "Cloud Hearts"

Come on in and rest awhile. This is the Livingroom. Ratta, the wild rat that moved in when we lived on the Prairie, is still with us. That's her munching on some cake in the corner by her little hut. Ok, it's a hamster, but I can pretend can't I? When I first moved to FooVille I met a friend who continued to gift me some pieces for the Livingroom. I had only known her for a couple of days so I became suspicious of her generosity. Sure enough, in the end, she told me that she was leaving FooPets because of the frustration of the game, and then she was gone. The red teddy bear, the zebra, the marigold bouquet, among other things are all from her so they are very special to me. Our favorite pastime is cozied up to a fireplace with a good book and a bowl and a bowl of popcorn. I used the scene, "Baby Blue Room"

This is our cozy country kitchen. Cozy Fisher Stove, plenty of hot tea, apple pie, and apple cider. I used the scene, "Cherry Red Room"

Again, a cozy room, even if it is only a bathroom. I used the scene, "Simple Grey Striped Room"
