Bubba

Today I called for Mr. Bubba again as soon as I walked in. I didn't see him right away, so I went to water the plants. Afterwards, I went in and checked under the bed and looked around in the living room for him. Still no Bubba today. He was here after I left yesterday though. I noticed he ate some food and most of the snacks that I had left for him. I'm sad that I missed him again! Anyways, I cleaned up and got him some fresh food and water. I waited a little bit again, but he must be out having fun. Next time!

Jazzper

Today Jazzper was sleeping in her house outside when I came. It took her a minute to locate me. She got up when she heard the gate close, but then she started wandering away from me and didn't see me until I got right up to her. She gave me a wag of her tail, then headed inside. She laid on the floor a little as she cooled off, then she made her way to her comfy bed. She got her treat and allergy pill before I headed out to water the plants. This evening I got miss Jazzper up to go outside. She followed me out and started rolling around in the grass, while I got her some food and water. She roamed around and picked out different spots to lay. She came over for a few pets, then wandered off some more. I got her another treat tonight, and she ran off into the grass to enjoy it!

Jerrie & Kimmie

Today I saw Kimmie perched at the top of the kitty tower, just relaxing. I headed in further and saw Jerrie was curled up on the floor, in the living room by the table. I stopped to say hi to him for a little bit, before tending to their things. Afterwards, I grabbed Jerrie's brush and headed to the front room. Jerrie followed along behind me and laid next to me on the floor. He enjoyed a long brushing today! He laid there and purred the whole time. Occasionally, he would adjust or roll to his side so I could get all the good spots! Kimmie got a short brushing session today as well. I think she's even starting to get into it a little. She rubbes her face on the bristles a couple times, like Jerrie does.

Bella, Louie & Chico

This morning everyone zoomed outside as soon as I opened their doors. I got them all their breakfast, then joined them outside. Louie and Chico were messing around with each other, while Bella was pacing the fence line. Chico hopped up in my lap and got some attention while Bella was eating her food. He hopped back down and would steal bites from her bowl while she was busy inspecting some sound she heard at the back of the yard. I checked on Louie, and he was inside lounging on his bed in the living room. He came running over to talk to me a little, on his way to go snack on his food. When it was time, we all headed in and they went to their beds. This afternoon was another hot and sticky one outside. I let everyone out, but we spent most of our visit inside. The pups went in and out as they pleased. Louie layed on his bed a bit, and Bella would come in and lay on the tile to cool off. Louie had fun rolling around on the floor while Chico tackled him. Then Bella tried it, but Chico wouldn't mess with her! He came and sat on my lap instead. Later, I heard a screetching sound from outside, which had all three dogs racing out the door to see what it was. I went out as well, and saw that it was a hawk sitting in the tree! It stopped making any sounds shortly after we got outside. Eventually, we headed in and Louie did his dance for the peanut butter snacks! This evening the pups headed out while I got them fresh food and water. While we were outside, we heard a donkey! That drove Bella wild. She started jumping around and was trying to figure out where the sound was coming from. Everyone was busy exploring outside tonight. They each took turns to go nibble on some food. Bella and Chico were the main ones on patrol, racing to check out every sound. Louie spent a lot of time inside, keeping cool. He would come over by me once in awhile so I'd help him get his itchies. I caught onto Chico's sneaky tactic tonight, that made me laugh! He would come by me when I was inside, so Bella would get jealous and come to try to steal my attention. This would get her away from her food bowl. Then, as soon as she wasn't looking, he'd run out to sneak a bite! Silly boy. Later, it was time for bed, so Bella and Louie went in. I had to go get Chico, since he was playing his hiding game.
