Bubba

Today I called for Bubba when I got there. I didn't see him, so I got started filling his food and water, then scooped out his litter box. He still wasn't anywhere to be seen. I called around some more while I watered the plants. Bubba must have been out exploring today. I waited a little longer, but he still didn't show. Hopefully he will be there to visit with me tomorrow!

Jazzper

Today I heard Jazzper rustling around when I opened the gate. She must have heard it when it shut, because she stood right up and looked around. I got a couple big barks, then she came up and sniffed at me. She was ready to go inside and cool off a bit. She went right in when I opened the door, then went and made herself comfortable on her bed. While she relaxed, I went back out to water the plants quick. I came back in and pet her a little. She got her treat and allergy medication before I left. When I came this evening, Jazzper was up and ready to go outside. She came out with me while I dumped out her water. Then, she came bouncing along, in and out of the house, while I got her fresh food and water. She was an excited girl! When I finished, she did a little exploring about the yard. She came over to me for some attention time now and again as well.

Sadi & Stormy

Today Stormy came wandering out from under the dining table when she heard me open a fresh can of food! She rubbed up against the cabinet and meowed, then followed me into their room to grab a bite to eat right away. While she ate, I went to find Sadi. She was sunning herself out on the patio again. I pet her for a minute, then took her in to get her medicine. She was all kinds of stuffy today, so it took a bit to get her cleaned up. Once she was cleaned up, I could still hear her congestion pretty well, so she got an extra pill again today. She took a couple bites of food, then went right out to the living room. She enjoyed rubbing her face all over my hand. She purred away while I scratched her chin and chest. Stormy was rolling around under the table again today, and wasn't too interested in any attention.

Jerrie & Kimmie

Today Kimmie was sitting under the table in the entryway when I got in. She came out, then started heading towards the living room. I saw Jerrie was comfy on the second tier of the kitty tower. I went and took care of their things quick, then went to visit Jerrie in the front room. Kimmie came wandering in after me and climbed in the window sill behind the curtains. She was trying to be a stealthy kitty today! I peeked in at her and she scooted backwards and snuck out. Later, she sneakily went around the back of the chair and into the other window sill. I brushed Jerrie for awhile, and he just purred away. He stayed in his spot and laid his head back again to get his chin scratched by the bristles. Before I left, Kimmie and I played while she hid behind the curtain. I tossed her green ball at it and she'd stick out a paw to bat it around.

Bella, Louie & Chico

This morning I came in and opened the back door. When I did, I noticed a tiny turtle on the back porch, getting himself a June bug breakfast! I moved him out to the front yard right away, so neither he nor the dogs would get bit. I let Louie, Chico, then Bella all outside to go potty. I got them some fresh food and water for breakfast, while they were out doing their thing. Bella was scanning through the fence for any critters out there. She got interested in something by the flower pot in the corner, but I didn't see anything. Louie and Chico were doing their own exploring. When it was time to head in, Chico didn't want to go to bed. I had to go get him, so I sat on the floor nearby. Then, he came running to my lap and was being all silly! This afternoon was pretty hot and humid out. We went outside when I got there for a little while. When we got warm, we went in to play a little. I sat on the floor and Bella started rolling around next to me. She kept pawing at me and tried to grab onto my hands with her paws. Louie and Chico were busy chasing each other around and wrestling a bit. Chico ran right into his bed this time when I had their snacks ready! Louie was quite excited as well and was bouncing all over the place while I got it ready. This evening everyone went out for a quick potty break before dinner. I went in with the little ones so they would all eat some food right away. Bella was busy exploring, so I went back outside and sat down with the bowl right in front of me. This time, she ate a bunch! I guess she's just too worried about me doing something fun without her! I noticed Chico is quite the little sneaky one. He would steal bites out of the other bowls when they weren't looking! Silly boy. He and Bella had fun roaming around the yard tonight. Louie spent most of his time inside the cool house.
