It was the most adorable little bundle of ridiculously short legs and long ears you could ever possibly imagine.

How…how could…how could you delete it! OMG, get into your Recycle Bin right this minute and get it back!

I give you; The World’s Most Adorable Dog.

He is a miniature husky. He only weighs about 17 lbs and is about 20" tall. He’s as soft as a bunny.

The best part is that his name is ‘Chaco’ and this is him at Chaco Canyon N.M. I was wearing Chaco sandals at the time.

Hence, my username.

The only thing cuter than a sleeping kitty is two sleeping kitties.

It’s a rare occasion in our house, so I just about melt into a puddle of squee if I happen to catch two balls of kitteh sleeping in [huddle formation](http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2096/2165089902_cc3f49f516.jpg).

Most of the time, Ariel prefers to [sleep solo](http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3078/2806390389_97eb500e55.jpg) so as not to distract from her personal cuteness.

Aww, thank you. The gray one was a shelter kitty that my sisters picked out for me as a kitten for my 23rd birthday. She passed on at the ripe old age of 22, about 3 years ago.

The dark kitty is our current kitty, and she was also a rescue, but we got her from a rescue group. She was 5 years old when we adopted her about 2 1/2 years ago, so she’s a little over 7 now.

Rescue kitties are absolutely the best!

[I got you all beat](http://s392.photobucket.com/albums/pp3/gunsntulips/?action=tageditmany).

Actually, I have cuter pictures, but it’s mainly a nod to **Opalcat** s couch. 😉

[Here’s Butch](http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/nn210/hrhomer/PlaidButch3small.jpg?t=1226897961). He was sleeping peacefully a few seconds before I snapped the pic. i did a LOLcat of this pic, but I lost it - it said “Don’t toy with me, Bitch.” or something like that.
