Rusty, Ruby & the kitties

This afternoon I let miss Ruby out and we went outside. I called and called for Rusty, but he wasn't coming out with us. Ruby waited outside, while I went in to get him. He was just lounging in his chair, like usual. I saw he had his ball sitting there with him, so I grabbed that. He instantly popped up and ran to the back door. He was ready to play now! Ruby sat by me for her back scratches, while I threw the ball for Rusty.

Eddie & Butler

This afternoon the boys were quietly lounging in their beds. I let them out and we headed outside. Butler hopped up on the table and was giving me kisses. Eddie was behind me, trying to steal my attention from him. He howled for a few minutes, then wandered off. Butler would come visit me when Eddie was busy exploring. The boys relaxed on the patio most of the time. They heard a neighbor outside after awhile and got all excited. They ran to the fence to investigate.

Oscar

This afternoon Oscar met me at the door and gave me an excited hello! He spun his circles while I said hi, then we made our way out back. Oscar did his business, then lounged around in the grass for a bit. I grabbed one of his frisbee toys and we played after that. He would let me get just close enough... Then he'd take off! I got it a few times and threw it for him to fetch. We did the same with his squeaky toy, which he got bored with pretty quick. Then, it was back to his frisbee. The neighbors got home while we were out, so he had to take a break to run to the fence. The schnauzer came over by him and they said hi, before he had to go in. Oscar knew I was going to have to wipe his paws when it was time to head in, so he was leary of coming inside. He finally did, like a good boy. When he was dried off, we decided to play in the living room for a little bit. We played tug with his sharky. When he'd get tired, he'd sprawl out on the ottoman. He's so silly!

Sadi & Stormy

This morning Stormy was walking in and out of the kitchen, meowing at me, while I got their food ready. She followed along behind me as I delivered their breakfast. Sadi was already in there, getting a drink. Stormy got to work on eating, while Sadi got her meds. I set Sadi down to eat while I changed out their dishes and cleaned their box. Stormy was a hungry girl this morning! She nearly polished off her bowl, then was trying to nudge Sadi out of the way so she could eat from the other one. I stopped her so Sadi could get her share. When they were done, we all headed to the living room. Sadi got her brushing. I grabbed the new kitty toy and had Stormy playing with that. I got the shoe string down as well, and she just went crazy! She took the string and ran off to roll around with it, then she'd quickly tackle the feather toy. Haha. This evening Stormy was lounging on the back of the couch and Sadi was snoozing in her bed. I gently pet her and she woke up. Time for evening meds. She was still a little sleepy, but took her pills like a good girl as always.
