Rusty & Ruby

This afternoon Ruby came out of her bed and Rusty hopped down from his chair. We all wandered outside. Rusty and Ruby both went potty, then plopped down in the grass for awhile. Miss Ruby came by to head inside, but I called for her so she would finish her business. So, she sat by me for some heiny scratches. After that, she did her thing and lounged around a little longer. Today the sun wasn't blazing down on us, so it wasn't quite as hot out. Rusty came over and we got a few throws in. Soon, the pups were ready to head inside.

Chica & Paco

Today Chica was sitting by the scratching post and Paco was on his way down from the couch when I walked in. He came over and was attached to my legs immediately. Chica hopped up on the counter for some pets, while I got their snack ready. They both worked on that until I finished cleaning their box. They were both waiting for me in the living room when I was done. I had miss Chica chasing the feather toy all over the place! Meanwhile, I kept Paco busy with the other one. They still haven't learned to let go once they catch it though! Haha. They just sit on it for awhile. Chica wanted some pets so she came and wiggled her way under my arm. Paco was bumping his head against mine and wanting some attention too! They're both so sweet.

Winston

Today I got Winston's harness on, then away we went. It was hot out again today, but the sun wasn't blazing down on us. So, we were able to get a longer walk in this afternoon. When we went back inside, Winston hopped on the couch by all of his toys. He was king of the mountain! Or the couch really... haha. He came down with his green bone and wanted to play tug. We got a good game of fetch in with it too. I asked where his rope was, then he wandered over to it and tried to cram that and his green bone in his mouth at the same time! He gave up and just came back with his bone. I asked him again, then this time he just went to get the rope and left the bone with me.  We played some more tug. When it was time, he went to his room and got a yummy cookie.

Eddie & Butler

This afternoon Eddie pushed open his door, once I unlocked it. He wandered over by Butler's cage with me and was busy trying to steal kisses. I got Butler's medicine applied, then we all went out. Eddie was having a great time rolling around in the grass! Butler just sprawled out next to him, while he was being silly. Eddie kept checking all the holes for critters, by sticking his head way in and pawing in there. What a goof. They were in and out again today, getting drinks of water. When it was just about time to head in, they went in on their own and lounged around to cool off.

Oscar

This afternoon I walked in and didn't see anyone. I got to the living room and saw Oscar lounging around on the couch. He slid himself off and into a big stretch! After that, he came over to say hi and get his heiny scratches. We headed outside for awhile. It was another toasty afternoon. Oscar laid in the sun awhile, then he went to lay in the bushes. Later, I saw him trying to pick up that big branch in the yard! Haha. Too big. I grabbed a stick off the patio and threw that for him. He just looked at it, so I made a run for it. Then, he raced me to get it. We played tug with that for a little bit, then he just wanted to lay down and chew on it. Soon, he was ready to head in and cool off.

Poppy, Pita & Simon

This morning Pita was lounging on the bed again. I saw one of them run into the kitchen. Then, Poppy came out of the bedroom, so I knew who it was! Simon looked around the corner at me, waiting to make a break for it. I slowly went in by him and let him sniff at my hand for a minute. He let me pet him for just a second, as he slowly snuck past me and went for his hideout. We're making progress! The other two worked on their snacks, while I took care of their other things. Poppy came in and was loving on the wall above my head while I cleaned their box. That was funny to look up and see her right there! Haha. I sat in the living room afterwards to play with the girls. Pita was rolling around on the floor, loving up her attention again! She even played with the feather toy a bit, giving it the "bunny kick" with her back feet. Poppy  stayed a little ways off, to stalk the feather toy. Then, she kept sneaking around quietly. She would walk around and be on the opposite side of me, then behind me. She laid under the bed and stuck her paws out to catch the toy as well. Silly kitty!

Sadi & Stormy

This morning Stormy came running to meet me in the kitchen. She waited for me to water plants, then gave me a big meow upon my return. I picked her up right away and she got her medicine. I set her down and she took a couple steps away from me, then decided to come back and rub against my leg. That was quick! She followed me everywhere until I delivered her food. Sadi was in the food room, waiting to eat. After I set the dishes down, both girls started to eat. My, they were hungry! Even Sadi almost polished off her dish. Since she was eating so well, I didn't want to interrupt. Once she was done, she got her meds. Her nose sounded much better today. After that, we went for a few minutes to get her brushed. Stormy got some chin scratches too. This evening Sadi was sitting by the window next to the bed. Her nosey was a little crusted up, but once I got her cleaned up, she sounded pretty good. She got her medicine, then I tucked her in bed. Stormy was laying on a chair in the dining room. I peeked under at her and she meowed at me to get a couple chin scratches.
