Harvey and Fishy

This morning Harvey came out of his room and stretched a few times before jumping around and running towards the door! Outside we went, into the cool, morning air! He went potty quick and then raced back to the door, ready for his morning breakfast. He was so hungry, he passed up his three toys on the way to his food dish; Harvey was hungry today! Before I emptied the cup, his little nose was already into his bowl. His bowl was empty in record time and on to his fresh water and ice cube treats! As he was eating, I fed Fishy a few yummy flakes of food. Fishy took a few nibbles, and then swam around the bowl and back up for more food! Harvey was now ready to play with his squeaky, Christmas snake! Back and forth he went, bringing me the toy and then chasing it down the living room. A few times, it fell behind the ottoman, so it took him a few seconds to find it, but he was sure happy when he did! We played for a little bit longer and then took one more lap around outside for a second potty break. Into his room, Harvey went and enjoyed a few treats! Have a great day; see you tonight!!

My last night with Harvey was a blast! As I opened up his gate, Harvey ran out, jumped up on me for some love and then ran around the living room! We spent a lot of time outside tonight, running around and enjoying the cool night’s air. He then ran up on the porch, so fast he almost slid into the door! Once inside, I think it took him three big leaps to get to his food bowl! Harvey ate his food so fast, I am not sure he even chewed! I think he is so excited because he knows his family will be home very soon! Fishy was swimming around the bowl, also ready for his friends to come back! We played tug-o-war and fetch with his Christmas ball and snake for the rest of the time! He played so hard with the snake that a squeaker and some stuffing flew out!! I gave Harvey a big hug and thanked him for a great time before he headed back into his room for the night! Happy Holidays!!


Flax

This morning Flax was sitting on the rug by the back door, ready to go outside! We went out and took a nice morning walk around the creek bed and pond. When we got back, Flax found a nice spot to lay in the grass by the patio while I went in and took care of his food and water. After I came back outside he moved to his little bed in the back and I sat next to him. He had me pet him for awhile as he enjoyed a few treats I brought out for him. Later, we headed back inside. I think it was a little too chilly out, even for him! He decided he wanted to stay in for the morning. This afternoon Flax was already out and curled up on his mattress. He said hi from his bed, but was too comfy to get up! After I put the mail inside I sat with him and gave him a tummy rub. I tried to get him to take a walk with me, but he was perfectly happy right where he was! I brought him out a few treats to snack on. After that, he was ready to take a walk with me. This evening Flax was snoozing out in the garage again. He barked when I turned the light on until he sat up and saw me. We went inside while I got his dinner ready. He wanted to go back outside after he finished. He rested his head on the little table by the door and gave me the biggest puppy dog eyes! "Pretty please can I go back outside?" He would've stayed out all night if I had let him!

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

Today I saw the girls get up and start running to the fence as I pulled in the driveway. They met me with smiles and wagging tails! Kitty was in her spot too, meowing hello. Boo met me at the door and came to the kitchen for his treats. Chocolate was curled up on the guest bed today and let me pet her for a few minutes. Fluffy was snuggled with her little puppy dog and also let me pet her for awhile. Neither one attempted to go anywhere! Quartz was ready for his water as usual. The girls came in and were very excited for some attention! Suzzie curled up by my feet and pawed at me any time I'd stop. Heiny would squeeze herself in between us and give Suzzie a kiss to make it ok for her to steal the attention! I had my little helper as I cleaned the litter boxes today. He even was kind enough to sit on the counter and paw at my head that I was doing a good job! Haha! Later I went to feed Kitty but she wasn't there anymore. I called for her and went back inside since she didn't come. As I was leaving, there she was, crunching away on her food!
