Cousin Stephanie's "Kids"
(actually she's my first-cousin-once-removed but we're not counting)

                                 "The Kids" also known as "The Monkeys" or "Monsters, Inc.":
                                                                    Joe (Retriever)
                                                                    Mama-Cass / MC / Mama / Cassie (black and white cat)
                                                                    and
                                                                    Vinny (black cat)

Vinny and his 35 dollar mouse (long story - ask Steph)

Doesn't he look dashing with his little red claw protectors?

Joe with his friend Mr. Moose - nice tongue Joe...

Joe takes Mr. Moose with him everywhere

Vinny's so handsome

He can't help it, He was born handsome

Mama's indecision -  "Do you think pink is the right color for my claw protectors?"

Clearly Joe's been kissing Vinny too much - look at those love lips
 

Vinny's bunny immitation

You weren't planning on wearing these jeans were you?

Hard as it may be to believe, Mama's even prettier in profile

Vinny loves his make-up brush

"All right Mr. De Mille, I'm ready for my close-up."

Oh my!  Joe has forsaken poor Mr. Moose for Mr. Teddy!

Mama doesn't trust photographers - she's keeping an eye on me.

All dressed up and no one to take me walkies.
