Bitty, Spirit, Angel, Baby and Shelby

Angel faithfully met me at the door this afternoon! She purred and rubbed up against my leg! I found Bitty sitting on the chair in the kitchen, a favorite spot for him! As you can see, the flash was a little too bright for him; but he looks cute even with his eyes closed! Shelby was extra lively today; she must know her family is on the way home! She was full of barks and energy as she roamed around in the back yard. She took a time out so I could take a cute picture of her; how cute is she?! Baby was enjoying a peaceful nap in the sun, so I didn't wake him; I just whispered goodbye! I said goodbye to the rest of the gang and gave each extra scratches. I enjoyed watching all 5 of you - thanks for the great time! Hope to see you again!





Bitty, Spirit, Angel, Baby and Shelby



Shelby and Angel met me at the door this morning with a big hello! Shelby was anxious to get outside, as the weather was beautiful. We played out in the yard and enjoyed the cool breeze! Angel was happy to see me come back inside and helped me fill her food dish! Baby was perched on his hind legs when I came in to say good morning! He did a few turns in his cage, as I opened the yogurt treat bag! Back in the living room, I found Spirit sitting sweetly by the fireplace. He posed for a great picture and after the flash went off, he came over to the camera to investigate; it was really cute! I said goodbye to the gang inside and gave Shelby a treat before I left.

Dakota & Benny

Benny was at the door when I came in today, doing his usual happy dance. Kota and Benny got to meet Meghan today too, and they just loved her up! Kota was talking to us while Benny showed her his blue ball. Later we discovered that he snuck it outside with us! Today was a beautiful day out, so we all went for a nice long walk! We saw a few other dogs out and about with their owners on our way through the neighborhood. On our way back, a small boxer puppy was running toward us, wanting to play. I helped the owner, who drove up shortly after in her car, try to catch her puppy! When all the excitement was over, we got back on our way. Kota and Benny both thought they were going to see the puppy again, so they were running along excitedly! Kota and Benny were both very tired when we got home. Kota had a little lunch before she laid in her cage to relax.

Bitty, Spirit, Angel, Baby and Shelby


Shelby and I enjoyed the beautiful evening sky as we sat in the back yard. We walked around in the cool grass as the new lawn was being watered. Finally, we went inside to say hello to the cats and the bunny. Spirit, Angel and Bitty greeted us as we entered inside! A change in litter, a shake of the food dish and a fresh bowl of water made all three happy; you could actually hear Angel purring! Baby was eating on some hay when we came in. I tried to get him to play with his toys, but he didn't seem interested, so back to his hay he went! As I was leaving, Shelby laid down in front of me, as if to say, "please pet me before you leave"! With such a sweet face, who could resist? A few belly scratches made her smile - see the picture, how cute!! See y'all tomorrow!






Bitty, Spirit, Angel, Baby and Shelby

Bitty awoke from his nap to say hello to me as I arrived this afternoon. He wrapped around my legs a few times and enjoyed some back scratches before he returned to his spot on the couch! Shelby was sleeping on the cool cement, taking advantage of the beautiful weather. She got up to greet me and followed me around to turn on the sprinklers. We went inside to see how the other furry friends are doing. Angel said "hello" to us as we came back in; excited for some attention! Baby was sleeping, but did wake up for some scratches and a yogurt treat! It was time for me to go, so Shelby and I went back outside to turn off the sprinklers and fill up her water bowl. See you tonight!

Bitty, Spirit, Angel, Baby and Shelby



Shelby's big yawn and stretch greeted me at the door this morning. After a few moments, all three cats came to say good morning, each one taking turns stretching and yawning!! Shelby was excited to get outside, so I let her out, turned on the sprinklers and went back inside to see Baby. He must have heard me coming, as he was looking towards the door! A fresh bowl of food, some hay and a yogurt treat made Baby's morning! He was so excited, he flipped around in his cage a few times! I filled the cat's food dish, which Angel appreciated and thanked me for! She even posed for a cute picture! Outside Shelby was laying on the porch, enjoying the morning sun! I shut off the sprinklers and scratched under her collar before I left for the morning.

Daisy, Ally & Prissy

This morning Ally was curled up in her corner of the couch again. I sat and pet her for awhile, and noticed Prissy peeking around the corner of the couch! She was sitting behind the couch by her cat scratch post. She said hi, then went over to curl up on the rug by my shoes. I went upstairs to go let Daisy out and she zoomed out of there and down the hallway as fast as she could! She headed straight for that bedroom door, stood on her hind legs and pawed at it until it opened. She made her way under the bed to hang out there for awhile. Every once in awhile she'd make a mad dash down the hall for her room! I had put more hay in her cage for her, so she sat in there and had a little snack. She had eventually wandered off back into the other room. I grabbed down her food bag and she must have heard me. She came flying around the corner and was standing on her hind legs at my feet, making little grunting noises at me! She cracks me up! I went down to see the kitties again on my way out. They were both curled up on either end of the couch.

Bitty, Spirit, Angel, Baby and Shelby

As I walked through the door, out came Spirit and Bitty to say HI! A quick scratch on the head and they were gone. I could see Shelby's tail wagging as I approached the back door. She was so excited to see me; I even got a few barks! We stayed outside for awhile and said "hello" to the neighbors who walked by! Shelby decided it was time to go in with our other friends. On our way to visit Baby, we found Angel resting on the cool tile; she was enjoying an evening nap. Baby was chewing on some grass and when he turned his head to look at us, he had a piece sticking out of his mouth! It was so cute! He enjoyed some scratches behind his big, soft ears. Shelby and Angel thought I had spent enough time with Baby and wanted the attention back! Shelby barked and pawed at me and Angel meowed at me! After a few more scratches, it was time to leave. Goodnight friends, see you tomorrow morning!!

Bitty, Spirit, Angel, Baby and Shelby

This afternoon was full of scratches and conversation for Angel! She followed me around and thanked me for the attention! Shelby was laying on the rug outside, enjoying a cool, fall day. She wagged her tail as I came out with a treat! She helped me turn on the sprinklers and came inside with me while the grass was getting a drink! We all laid on the floor and both Angel and Shelby got some scratches. Baby was sleeping when I walked into the room, but was quick to wake up and say hello! It was time to go, so out when Shelby until this evening. Angel walked me to the door and said goodbye!

Bitty, Spirit, Angel, Baby and Shelby

This morning, Shelby was the only furry friend to meet me at the door! She wagged her tail and was ready to greet the day outside! We enjoyed the cool morning and walked around in the wet grass. Back inside, I found Spirit in his usual spot, who thought it was too early for a picture! Bitty and Angel finally came out to say good morning and enjoyed some scratches. Angel and I chatted it up, as we cleaned out the litter box! Baby was anxiously awaiting a morning scratch and a snack! A few more scratches for each animal and it was time to go - see you in the afternoon!

Bitty, Spirit, Angel, Baby and Shelby

A faithful Bitty welcomed me at the door this evening! He stayed for a few scratches and then he was off to go back to his daily nap. Angel came out and followed me into the kitchen. She thanked me for a fresh bowl of water! Shelby was waiting at the door with a wagging tail! We played outside for a few minutes, but she was ready to go in to see her furry friends! Baby knew exactly what the sound of the yogurt bag is and enjoyed a treat! Shelby got a little jealous, so after a few more scratches for Baby, it was back out to give Shelby a treat and some scratches! She even posed for a picture!

Bitty, Spirit, Angel, Baby and Shelby


This afternoon, Angel greeted me by the door; she always has a lot to say!! I found Bitty taking a nap on the couch; he looks comfortable and quite content! Shelby was excited to see me and we enjoyed some outside time; she made sure to avoid the crazy sprinklers!! Back inside I found Angel sleeping in her normal spot, on top of the bed! He opened his eyes just enough to see who it was and then closed them again and went back to his nap! Baby's little nose was working as I scratched and scratched! I went back out to give Shelby a goodbye scratch!

Daisy, Prissy & Ally

This morning Prissy and Ally were both lounging in the living room when I came in. I said hi to them for a little while before heading up to play with Daisy. Ally sure loves having me pet her! Daisy was full of energy this morning and was running back and forth from the hallway to the bedroom. She took a little break to chew on her corn cob, then off to explore some more. She came by me often to get pet too! I grabbed her food bag and she would magically appear at my feet. Tonight Ally was sitting in the living room, but I didn't see Prissy until I was off to see Daisy. Daisy spent most of the time tonight in her cage. I guess she pooped herself out today! She did come out to explore down the hallway for a bit. Later, she crawled behind her cage and took a little snooze. When it was time to go, she was excited to get her treats! I stopped down by the girls to pet them for a little bit again before I left.

Chelsea

Tonight Chelsea was barking out the window when I came walking up. As soon as I opened the door, her little heiny started wagging! She danced little circles around me while I pet her. Chelsea then ran up to the counter and stared at her leash, ready for a walk! It was very nice out tonight, so we took a really long walk. Her little nosie was busy sniffing around all over the place. There was a chocolate lab outside one of the houses we passed by, and they both stopped to look at each other. When we got back home, I fed Chelsea her dinner.
I'm ready to go in and have my supper!

Bitty, Spirit, Angel, Baby and Shelby

Shelby greeted me at the door with a wagging tail and a big stretch! I said a quick hello to Bitty and went outside with Shelby to say hello to the beautiful morning. A fresh bowl of water and food made her very happy! Then back inside to say good morning to the cats and Baby! Bitty enjoyed some scratches and Angel had a long conversation with me! Baby was jumping around and was loving the scratches and a little morning treat. Such a lively, little bunny! After some petting, she finally decided she would pose for a great picture! Spirit was enjoying the view from atop the bed; he stuck his head out for a few scratches! I filled up the cat food and cleaned out the new litter container; it works great! Then back outside to play with Shelby and water the new grass! She enjoyed some scratches and, of course, a treat!

Daisy, Prissy and Ally



This morning I found Ally in the dining room next to the table, waiting to be pet! She came over and purred away. I went looking for Prissy but didn't see her anywhere, so went upstairs to see Daisy. I let Daisy out and she hopped along down the hallway. She sure knows that she can open that one bedroom door, because that's right where she headed! She came running and jumping down the hallway, back into her room and took a short snooze behind her cage. I fed her and gave her the yogurt drop treats when it was time to go. As I went downstairs, I saw Prissy laying in the sunlight next to the piano, so I went over and pet her for a little bit. Tonight Ally was curled up on the couch. I sat with her and gave her lots of attention! Daisy came out to play for awhile. She curiously sniffed around in the hall and tried to get in that room again by scratching on the door. She came zooming quickly back down to her room, past me, under the bed and wound up behind her cage! After a few minutes she came over to me to be pet. Then, she hopped up on the bed for a bit and gave herself a bath. When I headed back downstairs, Prissy was laying in the front room again. When she saw me coming, she got up and met me halfway so I'd pet her.
Bath time!

Suzzie, Heiny, Boo, Quartz, Fudge, Fluffy and Kitty Cat




This afternoon the girls came over to the fence to say hi quick before I went inside. Boo was making his way to the door as I walked in. I saw Chocolate all curled up on the back of the couch. I walked over to go pet her, and Fluffy hopped down out of the chair by the window! I looked all over for her yesterday, so that must have been her good hiding spot - behind the backboard of the bed. She ran down the hallway and sat under the dresser in the guest bedroom. Quartz was waiting at his spot, and meowed at me when I came in. I went out to see if Kitty Cat was home, and she wasn't out there again. I called for her a bunch, then finally gave up and headed back to the house. When I was latching the gate back up, I heard a rustling behind me. I turned around and there was Kitty, running towards me! Yay! I stayed out and pet her for awhile before she went to eat her supper. I spent the rest of the time with the girls, giving them lots of tummy rubs and back scratches. I had to help Miss Suzzie up to go back outside again today. She hasn't really even tried all week, she just lays there and smiles at me! She's so cute.

Dakota & Benny

Today Benny came running to the door and slid across the tiles standing up! I got them both hooked up and ready to go. Kota was being silly and would put her leg stiff and straight so I couldn't get her harness on right away. After she gave me a couple kisses, then she forgot what I was doing. We took a nice long walk today. We passed under a tree that was full of birds! They all took off as we got closer, and boy were Kota and Benny excited to try and catch some birds! They both started running to chase after them. Kota had some fun chasing after a couple bugs on our walk as well. When we got home, Benny snuggled up with me for some attention while Kota had some lunch.

Suzzie, Heiny, Boo, Quartz, Fudge, Fluffy & Kitty Cat

Boo came for his treats as usual before I let the girls in. He followed me around the house while I looked for Fluffy. Still no sign of her! He hopped up by the sink with Quartz and they both got some attention. Chocolate was sitting in the living room by the lamp. She sat ever so still, hoping I wouldn't notice her! She eventually took off and went into hiding under the bed. She hasn't made any attempts on the front door for me so far, so that's good! I went out to see Kitty Cat and she wasn't out there. I called and called for her, but no Kitty. So I went back in by the girls for awhile. As I fed Boo, Quartz was rolling around on the bed and sticking his paws out at me. He's so silly! I went out and called for Kitty again as I was leaving. Hopefully she'll be around again when I come tomorrow!

Suzzie, Heiny, Boo, Quartz, Fluffy, Fudge & Kitty Cat

I didn't see any frogs in the house today! That's so funny, I wonder how he got in! The girls met me at the gate today and were ready to come in for supper. Boo must have been getting impatient for me to come in. I only opened the door a crack and he was right there with his head peeking out! He got his treats before I let the girls in and went to see Quartz. Heiny was desperate for some lovin' today! She was hanging out by me while I was cleaning the litter boxes, nudging at me and staring until I'd pet her. She was even getting upset that when she put her head by Boo he didn't do anything. She got a nice belly rub from me, then pawed at my leg for more! I tried to pet Suzzie and Heiny would walk under my arm between us! Those two started to mess around after that, then Heiny gave Suzzie some kisses. Kitty Cat was waiting for me at the gate. I think someone's helping her eat her food too. I've been bringing out a scoop of food with me everyday and today the container out there was empty! She had some supper while I pet her. Chocolate was sleeping in the computer chair this afternoon. I looked for Fluffy and couldn't find her again. She must have a really good hiding spot! I went to feed Boo and saw Quartz sleeping under the makeup table in the corner. He hopped up on the bed and started rolling around and getting playful!

Dakota & Benny

This afternoon Benny was running up and along the top of the couch in addition to his usual laps around the living room! There was a nice breeze out today, so it was comfortable enough for them to take a nice long walk. As we passed the house with another husky in the backyard, the little boy that lives there was bumming around in his little John Deere truck in the front. He stopped and pointed, then said, "Look momma! Like Kota! Like Kota!". I think his husky might be named Kota too! When we got home, Benny was very tired. He sprawled out in the kitchen while Kota nibbled on her food for lunch.

Suzzie, Heiny, Boo, Quartz, Fluffy, Fudge & Kitty Cat

The girls must have been sleepy this afternoon, or they just didn't hear me today. I got all the way to the front door, then saw Suzzie's little nosie sticking through the fence. Boo got his treats, then helped me let the girls in. Chocolate and Fluffy were both in the office curled up on the couch. I got Quartz's water on for him and said hi before going to see the kitties. I sat on the couch with them and they let me pet them for a bit. Fluffy eventually had enough and decided to go somewhere else to sleep in peace! Haha! Kitty Cat came out from behind the hog pen when I went out to see her. She had a little supper and just purred away while I pet her. The girls were waiting for me to come back in. Heiny got her tushy scratched and was lucky enough to have Boo clean her ears today! Suzzie gave me her silly smiles and would scootch closer for more attention.
Treats? Yes please!

Monday, September 20, 2010

Suzzie, Heiny, Boo, Quartz, Chocolate, Fluffy & Kitty Cat

Today the girls knew it was me pulling up and just did their little dance by the fence, waiting for me to come say hi. Boo was waiting at the door for me and went to his post for his treats! I let the girls in for their supper while I went to see Quartz. On my way, I saw Chocolate sitting in the guest bedroom window. She zoomed under the bed when she saw I'd spotted her! I looked around for Fluffy and found her curled up under the bed. Boo was of course in my face the whole time I was petting Fluffy, purring and trying to get all my attention! He followed me around as I cleaned the litter boxes. I stopped to give him a little brushing while he was on the dryer. Then it was off to see Kitty Cat! She was waiting in her house today, and was happy for some attention. As I was on my way back to see the girls, she showed me the way for a bit

Dakota & Benny

This afternoon Benny was very excited for his walk! It was pretty hot and sticky out today so we didn't take quite as long of a walk as we usually do. But they were still pretty tired when we got home! On our walk today, Kota joined Benny in the excitement of neighbor dogs. They both heard a dog barking and ran along the fence with it. Kota actually wiped out on the grass, she was trying to run so fast! I felt so bad for her, but it didn't even phase her. She got right back up and chased some more. When we got back home they had a drink of some fresh cool water and enjoyed a little treat while they cooled down.
Something smell good... right here!

Ladybug, Boomer, Bella & Bo

This morning I got Ladybug and Boomer up so we could go get the babies and all go outside to play! Everyone gathered at the fence to watch all the people passing by. Boomer chased after a few bugs and butterflies. Later Boomer snuggled up with me and Bo curled up in the shade. The girls laid in the corner under the bushes to wait until they saw more people coming! This afternoon we sat out in the backyard for awhile until the pups got too warm. Then we played inside while I got them their supper and filled all their toys with yummy treats! Tonight the pups were all ready for more playtime. The girls ran around in the dark and barked at any little noise they'd hear. Bo came by me for a nice back scratch. He didn't want me to stop! Ladybug got jealous and started barking at me until I'd pet her. Boomer just hopped right up in my lap! Bella hung out by her bushes in the corner and all I could see was her little dog tag. When we went inside I got them some more treats and told them goodnight!

Suzzie, Heiny, Boo, Quartz, Fluffy, Fudge & Kitty Cat

The girls were barking as I pulled up today, but were soon wiggling their little heinies when they saw who it was! I said hi to them quick then headed inside, with little Mr. Boo running to the door to greet me. Quartz was sitting in the kitchen window and hopped down for his treats. As soon as he finished them he was off to his post at the sink! I let the girls in for their supper and spent some time petting them before going out to see Kitty Cat. Heiny was trying so hard to get Boo to clean her ears! Kitty Cat was laying out by my car waiting for me! She got up and showed me the way to her house. She's such a sweet girl! I went back inside to see if I could find Fudge and Fluffy. I found Fudge laying under the bed, but couldn't seem to find Fluffers. I spent the rest of the time by the girls and gave them their after dinner treat.
Yummy treat!

Maddie, Spencer, Izzy, Willy, Tilly, Natilie, Potsy & El Nino

This morning everyone was sleeping soundly as I walked up. As soon as I opened the door, Spencer's head shot up and everyone was awake within seconds. I let everyone outside to play. Izzy, Spencer and Maddie were all roaming around the yard and on the patio. Nino was getting his exercise in running his usual laps and barking at the Corgis to get them to play. Later Izzy curled up in her spot by the door. For some reason Maddie sat over by the gate and wanted to go back in. Eventually she came over for her back scratches when she saw Spencer and Nino getting some! After running around with Nino, Willy, Tilly and Natilie all curled up in a spot in the shade to relax. Potsy came around this morning for a little attention too.
