surprise from santa

Merry Christmas! Memphis here was thrilled to get a stuffed loon today from her stocking. So excited, in fact, that she cut her gums on the tag while attempting to gut the poor bird, covering the fur in blood before 11 am. Yes, it was a busy morning. Don't worry, the poor thing was decapitated by 8 pm. Um, the loon... not the dog.
