Chica & Paco

Today both the kitties came running when they heard me. Little Paco was attached to my legs almost instantly, walking between them as I walked. I had to be careful so I didn't step on him! I could hear his little motor running. I got them a little snack to work on, while I took care of everything else. When I was done, they were ready for some attention. They had moved their feather toys to different areas, so it took a minute for me to find them. I had both kitties chasing them all over. Paco is so quick! They need to learn how to let go though, so we can keep playing. Haha! Chica amazed me at how high she can jump! She was quite entertained with the stick part of the toy today as well. (Since she already had the feather part lol.) She went and lounged on her little scratching wave shaped thingy for awhile. Paco spent some time getting pet as he rolled around and purred away. They're both so sweet! I couldn't get a good photo of Mr. Paco today. He's too wiggly!

Rusty & Ruby

This afternoon I let Ruby out and she headed outside right away. I went to the front room and found Rusty laying in his chair. He hopped down, grabbed his purple ball, and away we went. Ruby was waiting on the patio for us. When she saw we had come out, she wandered to the grass to do her business. She even had fun rolling around for a bit! She and Rusty relaxed and soaked up some sun. It was another toasty day, so after that, they were ready to cool off inside. I went to the front room to see what they were up to and they weren't in there. I went down the hall and found them in the bedroom. They both looked up at me and had that look on their faces, like they might be looking for trouble! Haha. They were being good, just happily working on their rawhides.

Winston

This afternoon little Winston was excited to see me! His little heiny started wagging while I opened the gate. We got his harness on and headed outside. He went potty pretty quick today, so we continued to wander around awhile after. We got a decent walk in, then headed back. After his harness came off, we played a long game of tug with his rope. After we played awhile, he went to his room and got a couple yummy snacks.

Eddie & Butler

Today Eddie came barreling out of his bed when I opened it! He bounced around to the living room to wait for Butler. Once Butler came out, I had him lay down quick. I gave his chest a spritz before they went out to play. The boys spent some time lounging around today, like usual. After that, they came in to get a drink. Butler curled up on the chair and Eddie sprawled out on the tile floor. When they heard a neighbor dog bark outside, they had to race out there to investigate! They soon returned and the boys both lounged on the chair or the couch for a bit until it was time to go.

Sadi & Stormy

This morning Stormy greeted me right away. Today she was sitting on a different chair in the dining room. She went on ahead of me to wait in the food room, while I got their breakfast ready. Sadi was sitting in there this morning as well. I got her her medicine, then set her down to eat. She and Stormy nibbled, while I cleaned their box and got them fresh food and water. In the living room, Sadi was happy for her attention time. She sat and rubbed her chin on my knee as she was brushed. I got Stormy playing with her fishy toy today. She was laying on her back and grabbing onto it. Sometimes, she was more interested in grabbing the string than the toy! Later, she wandered off to eat some more. When Sadi and I were finished, I took her back to eat as well. This evening Sadi was sleeping on the floor in the food room. I got her nosey cleaned up and she took her evening meds. When we were done, I tucked her back in her bed, where it was more comfy. As I was leaving, I spotted Stormy snoozing on the table out on the patio.

Bella, Louie & Chico

Louie ate all of his dinner for me overnight. I let all the kids out and it was nice and cool this morning. Later, Chico came in and was guarding his hoard of treats in his bed! Haha. Once I finally got them all back outside I had Louie come in for his breakfast. He was being pretty silly this morning and was galloping all over the house. He ate most of his food, so I put the rest outside with him later on. Back outside, the other two were busy taking turns to eat. Bella sat next to me when she was done for a little attention. Chico hopped up on the table for some pets as well. This afternoon Bella and Chico both raced outside. Bella lounged around in the grass and soaked up some sun. Chico was having fun rolling around in the grass a lot. While those two were having fun, Louie was busy eating some kibble. Louie came in for the afternoon with the other two. There wasn't much of a breeze at all, so it felt a little hotter than yesterday. This evening the pups raced outside, one by one. I got Louie's dinner ready and had him come in. He was bouncing around again tonight, and not interested at all. I told him earlier that we were going to do his medicine different if he wasn't going to eat the tuna well for me. Haha! Tonight, I decided to get a small bit of it to squirt in his mouth to see how he'd do with that. (That's how I'm used to giving that anyways.) He actually did really great! He took the little I gave him, then came back after getting some more bouncing around in, a few more times until he got the full dose. He's been eating the kibble well all day, so I just don't think he's that hungry. But, he didn't seem to have any complaints this way for now. Since that went quick, he got to go back out with the other two for more play time outside.
