Gracie, Molly, Emma & the kitties

This afternoon I came inside and saw Henry was in the kitchen. Emma came wandering up to say hi, with Molly along behind her. I let those two outside for a little bit. Smudge and Henry were instantly following me around everywhere. Once the girls were back in, I went to go see Gracie. Henry didn't like me being in there without him, so he kept sticking his paws under the door. Haha! Gracie was hiding under the bed. I talked to her for a little bit, but she just sat there and shivered. Poor scared little girl! I went to the kitchen to get some treats, to see if that would do the trick. Molly and Emma happily took theirs! Gracie still wouldn't come out, so I just let her be, so she could relax. We will try again tonight. Henry kept trying to sneak in there every time I opened the door. Silly boy. I spent some time petting the kitties, since they were craving the attention. This evening I let the ladies outside quick, while I got dinner ready for them. I scooped litter boxes next. Henry kindly decided to hop into the one I was currently scooping to go potty. Haha. I fed the pups their dinner and gave Molly her rimadyl. I went in to see Gracie to feed her. She still wouldn't come out for me. I tried hard to get her out, but she just didn't want to! I even brought the girls in to see if that would give her some courage. Nope. Well... I will be there bright and early to get her out in the morning. When I walked out of the room, I saw Sam was sitting on the stairs. He peeked his head through the railing to sniff at me. He, Henry and Smudge were all sitting there watching me! I pet them awhile, then told everyone good night.

Oreo & Stuffy

Tonight I came in and saw the awesome gift mom left! You're the best!! I got the boys their food, then went to see where they were. They were both all curled up on mom and dad's bed. I said hi to them for a bit. Oreo was seeming to be in a sassy mood. Haha! I went to clean their box quick. Oreo came out and had a bite to eat, then joined me in the living room. He went to the corner by the tree and just sat there. I think he was looking at the shadow on the wall from the plug dangling. It was moving slightly from the heat coming through the vent. I put it up once I saw him trying to mouth it. Naughty kitty... I was looking through their toys for something to get his attention. I found it! The laser light in there had him racing around the living room like a crazy cat! That gave me a good laugh.

Sadie, Zoie & Cole

This morning there was a light dusting of snow on top of all the ice. I let Zoie out first. She came in and went straight for her toys, while I let the other two out. Cole still didn't want to go out on the crunchy grass, and took a long time to figure out where he wanted to try. He eventually made his way out and did his business. Everyone got their breakfast, and they all finished pretty quick this morning. Zoie was crying at me for awhile, wanting me to play. She then brought her frisbee over and pushed it down on top of my hand. "Here ya go!" Cole came over for his heiny scratches. This afternoon the pups each took their turn outside. Cole was much quicker to hop on the grass this time. When they all came in and got dried off, we went to sit in the living room. Cole even laid down and chewed on a bone along with Zoie. Sadie just sat and pawed at me, wanting her pets. In return, I'd get plenty of kisses. Later, the girls were busy messing around and chasing each other. This evening the kiddos went out to do their business. Back inside, they quickly ate their dinners. All three joined me in the living room afterwards. Cole was in a playful mood! He bravely grabbed a bone that was sitting by Zoie. She was busy gnawing on a different one. Once he had it, he threw it to the ground and jumped on it with his front paws! He tossed it around. I bounced a ball for him too, which he chased around. Sadie rolled around on the floor, being a spunky girl too! When it was time, I tucked them all in their beds.
