Sadi & Stormy

This morning Stormy meowed at me right away from her chair in the dining room. She stood up and did a big stretch as I came over to say hi. I went out to turn the water on and she was waiting for me in the kitchen when I got back. She followed behind me to go deliver their breakfast. Sadi was sitting in there already. I got her cleaned up and she got her meds quick, then I set her by the food while I tended to their other things. She wasn't too interested at the moment. So, we went out to our spot next. Sadi sat and purred away while she got pet and brushed. Stormy played with her toy a little. She wasn't quite as crazy about it today though. When we were done, I put Sadi back in by the food.

Chica & Paco

Today both the kitties were in the living area when I walked in. They both came over for a few pets hello. I see they're getting along really well now! While I was cleaning their box I saw they were both rolling around on my shoes. Silly kitties! I got them each a little yummy snack, which Paco went to work on right away. Chica helped me out on the patio while I watered the plants quick. Once I was done with that, it was time to play! I can tell Chica is much more tolerant of her new little friend. He's grown so much just since I last saw him! She was in a lovey and playful mood the whole time today. She kept wandering into her little gray house. We had lots of fun with the feather toys for most of the time. They also enjoyed plenty of pets and chin scratches too!

Rusty & Ruby

This afternoon Rusty was hanging out on the recliner in the living room. He hopped down right away when he heard me. I let Ruby out, then we all went outside. Rusty was ready for some fetch as soon as he got out there. Ruby did her business, then came and sat with me for a little while. It was still a bit toasty out today, so after Rusty had played awhile, we headed inside to cool off.

Eddie & Butler

This afternoon I let Eddie out and he was bouncing around being silly. Butler came out next, then the boys headed outside. Butler was a good boy and came over and even rolled to his side while I sprayed on his medicine quick. The boys explored around the yard a bit, before they laid around on the patio. Butler was pretty interested in something in the grass today. It was still pretty hot out this afternoon, so the boys went in to spend some time cooling off. Butler and I had fun chasing around inside a little as well.

Oscar

This afternoon my buddy met me at the door. I scratched his heiny for a minute, then we made our way to the door. As we went along, he picked up his yellow loop toy and wanted to play. I guess someone was excited to see me! We tugged for a couple minutes, then went outside. He lounged around in the grass awhile in different spots. I got his frisbee out and threw it for him a couple times, but mostly he wanted to play tug or keep away! He's so silly. When we went in, I got him some fresh water and his yummy snack. He makes me laugh when he sprawls out on the ottoman!

Winston

Today Winston was ready for his walk! I let him out and we got him all hooked up. His little sniffer was working already as we headed down the stairs. It wasn't quite as hot out today, so we walked around a bit more than yesterday. After we deposited his doggie bag, we headed back home. He got his harness off and got into play mode right away. Today he wanted to play tug with his rope. He was trying to sound extra tough this time and his grrrrrs were loud and a bit, what I call snorkely. Haha! He was a good boy though, and every time I asked, he would drop it. Then, we got a little fetch in. Later, he was being silly. I found his itchy spot on his neck, so while I was itching that, he was rubbing the other side along the carpet. He was slinking around and when he got too far, he would switch sides and slide back over and push his nose under my hand to get me started again! He cracks me up!

Bella, Louie & Chico

This morning the pups were all excited when I got there. They all ran outside to do their business. I got Louie's food ready and had him come inside. He just wanted to go back out, so I put it up for now. Bella worked on some breakfast. Chico was on the table by me saying hi, which got Bella jealous, so she came running over too. Chico took that chance to go eat next. I left Louie his food to work on when it was time for the other two to go in. This afternoon, Bella and Chico went out. They laid in the grass a little and Louie came by me for a bit. A big bug was flying around the patio later on. That had Bella and Chico chasing after it and getting crazy excited! That was pretty funny. It wasn't as hot out this afternoon and there was a nice breeze, so Louie got to spend more time outside. I got everyone their snacks before I left. This evening Bella and Chico raced out for awhile. Louie came in and I tried to get him to eat. He just kept coming over and putting his paws on my arm to hang on. Silly boy. He and I went back outside for awhile, and all three pups spent some time exploring. It was really nice out tonight. Bella got all worked up when she heard a noise and the hair on her back was standing on end. I think it was just sounds from the game going on nearby. When it was time, I tucked them all in with a snack. I put Louie's food in with him in case he wanted to work on that more a little later on.
