Meet Miss Chloe

Miss Chloe Bobbitt is a gray-shaded Persian, now 14 years old. She is very smart. She kisses and sits upon command. A clicking mouth sound is her invitation to sit on the coffee table. She also sits on the bathroom sink, waiting for her cup of water. Her daily chore is to help “make the bed,” sitting at the bedroom door until her master arrives. She also runs to the bathroom when she has a furball cough.

She yodels!

Kriket is a Basenji, better known as an African “barkless” dog. She is not mute. She yodels, cries and she can even scream. She is extremely intelligent and has a tremendous sense of humor — and she loves to tease. But most of all, she loves my husband and me with all her heart, just as we love her.

— Elizabeth Thornton, Hope Mills
