Sadie, Zoie & Cole

This morning I let everyone out one by one. I put Zoie out front to go potty, then I got Cole and took him in the backyard. He stood on the patio awhile, and wasn't up for any attempt at convincing him to get off and into the grass. I had to pick him up and take him over there. Then, he went potty for me. I wiped paws off, then it was Sadie's turn out front. Once they were all inside, we sat in the living room awhile. Sadie sat directly in front of me and snuck in her kisses. Zoie was busy gathering up all the toys she could! Cole had wandered off to the bedroom. Later, I went to see what he was up to. He was just taking a snooze in his bed. Before I left I checked to see if anyone had to go out again. This afternoon Sadie and Zoie met me in the laundry room when I came in. I sent them out on the line, and took Cole out back again. I walked with him to the edge of the patio, then he hopped off on his own. He was being so silly! After he finished his business, he was looking at me and hopping from side to side. He was either trying to dodge something I couldn't see, or was trying to get me to play! I made some silly noises and jumped down lower and that got him going again. It made me laugh! We all played inside awhile again. Zoie actually wanted me to play this time. She brought a frisbee over and placed it in my hand, while continuing to keep her hold on it. We played tug until she was tired. Sadie was sitting in her spot, right up in front of me again. She's so funny. I sent everyone out back for one last potty break before I left, since no one had dirty paws earlier. This evening, Zoie was bouncing up and down at my legs when I walked in. I let everyone out for their potty break. Once paws were cleaned, they headed in and I got them their dinner, and Cole his medicine. I sat by Sadie's bed while she was in there, and she started to eat after a minute. She polished her bowl clean pretty quick! Once they were done, it was back outside again for awhile.

Sadi & Stormy

Today the girls were both snuggled up in the recliner when I arrived. I got their food ready and took it to their room. They must have been comfy, because they were still in their spots when I got back. I took Sadi to get her antibiotic, then the rest of her meds. She was crusted up pretty good, but sounded well once I got her cleaned up. She led the way to the living room when we finished. Stormy hopped down from the chair finally, and came for a few chin scratches. Then, she started playing with the knotted sock on the floor. She held it with her front paws and kicked with the back! Haha. Sadi just sat and was happy to be brushed and pet. Before I left, she ate a bit for me.

Giblet & the kitties

This morning Giblet did her business outside, as usual. When she came in, we decided to go for a stroll. There was a dog outside in its yard that was barking back and forth with her, so we turned around and took another route. We could tell the cold air was coming! Once we got back home, I got everyone their breakfast. Then, Gibs, Oreo, & Xavier all came to sit with me for some attention! They're so funny. I let Giblet have a little more time outside this morning. I stayed and pet the kitties a bit longer. Oreo and Xavier started play fighting after awhile. Haha! I noticed Shadow was in her spot on the bed, as usual. This afternoon Giblet took a potty break when I arrived. She got plenty of belly rubs when she came in, and gave me kisses in return. I think she was getting a little jealous of Oreo at one point! He was curled up in my lap, so she came over and almost nudged him out of the way. Silly girl! This evening Skylar was curled up on the recliner when I walked in. I let Gibs outside and noticed Oreo was sitting in a little shelf of the stand under the tv. Giblet came in and laid by me for some tummy scratches. Every now and then she would get up to lay elsewhere, then would cry at me from across the room, until I convinced her to come back! She got one more potty break before it was time for bed.
