Cookie Monsters

These animals may look different, but look closer.

They are all the same breed.

The Eastern Domesticated Cookie Monster.
img_3668img_3668
General Appearance: The Eastern Domesticated Cookie Monster conveys the distinct impression of goofiness and unsurpassed greed combined with incredible overall cuteness. Their coats come in many colors and may contain markings of various kinds. They possess a keen intelligence and a kindly, while demanding, expression. Exhibiting a unique elegance of bearing and movement, their soundness and coordination show unmistakably the purpose for which they have been bred–consuming cookies.

Size, weight, coat, and general structure varies, while all come with flexible, quick-moving tongues, the better to eat cookies. The Eastern Domesticated Cookie Monster moves smoothly and elegantly, true and straight ahead, exhibiting both power and agility in pursuit of their cookies. The stride is well balanced with good reach and strong drive.

The character and temperament are of utmost importance. In nature, the Eastern Domesticated Cookie Monster is confident, cunning, and affectionate. While territorial and protective of their own cookie when necessary, their general demeanor is one of sly composure, both patient and eager. They are strong willed, independent and somewhat reserved, yet attentive, fearless and loyal to the treats placed before them.

And if you’re a chicken, well, just stay back when cookies are in play……

    Couldn’t sleep – thinking about the stuff I have to pack for the move to Iowa – so thought I’d perk myself up by visiting you. As usual, you didn’t disappoint me – I love your cookie monsters and the description of their breed!!! Yep. With mouths wide open, they all look alike – and Annabelle looks so much at home with the goats. I see Pepsi has quickly learned to fight for her share, but will Pocahontas learn to get in there before she starves? She looks big next to the other C. Monsters, but really mini in the picture with Coco. As for the chickens, surely you can come up with a tiny chicken cookie?

    OK, I got my farm animal fix, talk to you tomorrow!

    Poor Pocahantas – she is just not as pushy as the other cookie monsters.

    I probably won’t see anything that cute the rest of the day. You have a wonderful herd of Eastern Domesticated Cookie Monsters. I like them so much more than the Big Blue Furry species – they have so much more personality!

    That looks like a rewarding time! How can you hold the camera and feed your monsters at the same time?
    BTW- Loved the picture of Morgan in the river! She’s a beauty, that one !

    That’s the cutest thing I’ve seen in ages. Clover is just Miss Piggy about cookies isn’t she! I’m going to assume you buy cookies in bulk for this crowd.

    I think this is my favorite post of yours ever. I love the “Domesticated Eastern Cookie Monsters”, they are so cute, and yet so demanding at the same time. Keep up the good work!

    Boy, that’s hilarious, great description of Cookie Monsters! Love the video! The way they are going after those cookies makes me want cookies. They kind of remind me of Jurassic Park, cookie dinos trying to storm the electric fence in pursuit of their prey.

    You win the “best video of the day award”!. What characters! Annabelle is still growing! It’s so great to see them all get along,
    and I just love Pocahontas. Thank you for explaining the DECM breed.

About Me

The Slanted Little House

"It was a cold wintry day when I brought my children to live in rural West Virginia. The farmhouse was one hundred years old, there was already snow on the ground, and the heat was sparse-—as was the insulation. The floors weren’t even, either. My then-twelve-year-old son walked in the door and said, “You’ve brought us to this slanted little house to die." Keep reading our story....
