Manny Burchfield-Cosgrove

On December 1, 2016, Manny walked right into our lives. He had been born in September and was brought over to play with his siblings by his mother on our balcony and wanted in from that moment on.. He wasn't going to take no for an answer. When his opportunity came, Manny took full advantage of it. On the night he came, he waited by the front door and slipped in unnoticed. Manny walked around the house like he owned the place, surveying his new universe.

Lucy Burchfield-Cosgrove

Lucille Josephine Furr (Lucy Furr) jump into our lives, literally, on February 9, 2004, in Encino, CA. Lucy and her kittens were rescued from a tent on a front porch in the San Fernando Valley after being abandoned by her first owner. We had planned to adopt her son, but Lucy banged on her cage, jumped in her water bowl, and purred so loudly that when the cage door opened, she couldn't get to her daddy Kevin fast enough. She landed in his arms and didn't leave for the rest of her life.

Zeus Sperry

10/12/2011 – 4/23/2019

It was love at first site for the Sperry’s; they went with a friend to pick up their pup and just could not leave without putting a deposit down on Zeus for themselves! He enjoyed sitting and relaxing on the porch with his mom and dad. And when in the mood Zeus would do his tricks of sitting or spinning. He had such a personality; he really never considered himself as just a dog. Zeus was the boss!! He always knew if something had been moved or was new in the house and he had to approve; lol.
