'Crystal' is a gorgeous, dilute tortoiseshell queen. Cats of this coloration are believed to bring good luck in the folklore of many cultures. In the United States these are sometimes referred to as 'money cats'. 'Whiskers' is a precious little Australian terrier mix. The Aussie breed dates from the 1900s and is fun loving, adventurous, clever and eager to please, making it one of the more obedient terriers. 'Ranger' is a small, tri-colored beagle mix. Beagles originated in England in the 1300s. The breed is one of the most amiable hounds and needs companionship. Given adequate exercise, it is a calm house pet and an excellent child's dog, gentle, incredibly tolerant, and always ready to play.
