Your Pet! Dandy and Sandy
Nap Time for Dandy and Sandy!Novelist Keli Gwyn is the proud owner of Dandy and Sandy. Keli tells us, “Our two cats, brothers Dandy and Sandy, were born to a stray dumped on a friend’s property. They spent their first eight weeks living under a goat shed. Because of their feral origins, they’re rather skittish and very shy. When the doorbell rings, we see a flash of orange and white as they hightail it for the back bedroom. They trust us, though, and are great companions. During the day when I’m writing, they’re always nearby. Our fellows are long-haired and leave fur everywhere, so I’m often covered in the stuff. My motto has become, “Have lint roller; will travel.”
On July 1, 2012, Keli celebrated the release of her first novel A BRIDE OPENS SHOP IN EL DORADO, CALIFORNIA from Barbour Publishing. Check out her information at

I’ve already purchased my copy of Keli’s novel. If you’re interested, you can connect at http://www.amazon.com/Bride-Opens-Shop-Dorado-California/dp/1616265833/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1342911688&sr=1-1&keywords=keli+gwyn
Like Keli, I’m a pet owner who believes in the value of the lint roller! Do you have any other tricks you’ve learned about divesting clothes and furniture of pet hair?
Blessings!

Thanks for having me as a guest on your blog, Sue, and for shining the spotlight on my two furry fellows. Sandy and Dandy are honored, I’m sure. =)
You are so welcome, Keli. We’re delighted to have Sandy and Dandy as part of the Your Pet! family!!
A number of years before I had Murphy- he was featured in this blog earlier in the month- I found Snoopy- a stray. Very loyal and loving to her family but aggressive toward anyone in a uniform… (Look out mail carrier.) She was black and white so no matter what I wore you could see Snoopy hair! The lint roller was a must at my house too.
Hi Keli,
It’s not stalking if one follows your FB link, right?
I wish my rescue cat was as skittish as Sandy and Dandy. My downstairs neighbor has a contractor doing work this week. I have to keep Bart locked up so he doesn’t make a mad dash out the open door. He doesn’t like it and needless to say has taken revenge. Last night’s poop was in the dog’s bed instead of the litter box.
Oh, Sandy and Dandy are so sweet! Thanks for sharing more about them!
Congratulations, dear Keli, on your superfab debut! 🙂
Lori, I’m guessing the mail carrier learned to keep a lookout for Snoopy.
You gave me an idea. Someday, when Sandy and Dandy are no longer with us, I’ll have to get a black cat. I wear a lot of black, and that way the hair won’t show up. =)
Mary, your guy Bart sounds like a character. I know cats can take revenge. We had a feisty little guy once who knew my dad didn’t care for him. Whenever Dad had to discipline the cat, the smart little fellow would retaliate by leaving surprises for Dad in his work boots. I can laugh now, but Dad sure didn’t laugh back then. =)
Cindy, thanks for being a cheerleader extraordinaire!
Keli, what lovely cats. But you have it all wrong. You are not the owner. You are staff.
Laughing about that, Janie. With cats we’re definitely staff!!
