Cali

Cali was at her post by the front door like normal today. I got her food out and warming up, then sat down on the floor to play with her. I no more than sat down, and she had made herself comfortable in my lap again! She sat and snuggled for awhile. I cleaned her litter pan while she nibbled on her soft food. After I was done, she did what my kitties always do... use the nice freshly cleaned litter pan! So I cleaned it out one more time before I left. lol She was more interested in watching out the window the rest of the time, than the fact that I was there. She would come down when I called her and get a little attention from me, then go back to her perch in the window. When I was walking up to the door today there were three squirrels outside fighting, making squeaky noises and running around. I heard their squeaking when I was inside with Cali, so that must be what she was so interested in!


Dakota & Benny


I think Dakota missed having her walk on Friday! She was super excited to get going. She was pulling pretty hard while I was locking up. We started our walk, and I got startled by a lady who was jogging and came up along side us. Benny didn't like that too much and started barking right away, so I stopped so we could get some distance between us. After we started again, I saw a huge chocolate lab come up beside us and it scared the crap outta me! I looked and no one was around and he didn't have a leash or tags on his collar. I tried to keep walking, but he wouldn't leave us alone. He got close enough one time that he and Benny started growling at each other, so I decided it was time to go back home. I couldn't stop three dogs from doing anything by myself, so I'd rather be on the safe side. He followed us all the way back home and stood outside the door for awhile. I took Benny and Dakota out in the backyard to play for the rest of our visit. The lab came over to the fence for awhile again. Dakota had a blast tearing around the back yard, while Benny and I played fetch. Well, it was more me that was doing the fetching! haha! He would just go run and grab it, then lay down with it. Dakota joined in a little too. She would grab the ball and start jumping around like a little bunny!
