Sophie & Roxy

The ladies heard my car door close and started barking that someone was here. I went in and they raced to the back door to see me. They came in and excitedly bounced around and said hi. I went to sit down with them, and they made me laugh. They were busy jumping and climbing over each other, across my lap, just not knowing what to do with themselves! Haha. They settled and snuggled up with me for awhile. Sophie sprawled out on her back across my lap, flailing her legs in the air, while Roxy pawed at me on the other side for pets. The girls took breaks to go work on their food. They returned when they finished and snuggled with me a bit. When it was time to go out, I got them each a yummy treat!

Daisy & Sophie

Today miss Daisy was snuggled up in her bed when I got in. I said hi to her and went to get her some food. She stayed put and relaxed until dinner was served. I went out to visit Sophie for awhile. She came running when she heard the door open. She loved up some attention! It was pretty chilly out today, so I kept her in. As I was leaving, she raced me to the door. I guess she wanted to go hang out inside. Haha!

Poppy, Pita & Simon

Today, Poppy was right at the door to see me. She started meowing at me right away. I opened up her door and she wandered out to the patio. Pita followed me to the kitchen to wait for snacks. When I took some food in for Simon, I saw he was sitting on the side of the bed by the wall. I said hi, then went to take care of the rest of their things. Poppy spent quite awhile out on the patio. Pita was busy rolling around next to me, getting attention. Simon actually came out again to visit me awhile too! He rolled around and stretched his paws towards me, loving up every minute. Poppy came back inside and chased him under the bed in the living room. So, he sat under there the rest of the time. Sassy girl! When it was time to go, I went to close the patio door. She tried to zoom out there quick, but I was too fast for her. Hehe.

Carson, Cate, Bubba & Bella

This morning the pups were awake and ready to head outside. I let Cate and Carson out first, since she insisted! Haha. They went out for their turn, then Bubba went next. While he was out, I scooped Bella's box and got her more food and water. I let her wander around the room until he was ready to come in. She was not happy that I kept her in today! It was very cold out though and wouldn't warm up much. Hopefully tomorrow she can get out for a bit. This evening, Cate started barking as soon as she saw me. I got them fresh water, then started their first round of potty breaks. Bubba waited patiently for his turn. He's such a good boy! Everyone ate well for me this evening and went out for awhile after they finished.

Gracie, Molly, Emma & the kitties

This morning Molly and Emma went outside for their morning break. Gracie spent awhile outside as well. I got them their breakfast once they came in. Molly wasn't interested, and Emma didn't finish hers either. I think Emma was just wanting her cookie more. Haha! I got Molly a piece of bread just to get something in her tummy and she did eat that for me. While I let pups back out for a bit, Smudge came to visit me. This afternoon, Emma was snoozing in her bed again, and Molly was napping in the bedroom, so I let Gracie out for her turn first. In the living room, I caught Henry being naughty. He had pulled the lower strand of lights down from the Christmas tree and was chewing on it! I shooed him off and tucked them back on the tree. He did break a bulb, so I probably would not plug that in. I confiscated the broken pieces. This evening, Gracie went outside to play a bit. Emma hung out by me. Tonight, all the kitties came to visit me! Well... all but one of course. I did see him zoom into the kid's bedroom though. Charlie and Micah wanted some pets. While I was feeding the dogs, Charlie, Smudge and Henry all sat on the stairs and watched. I closed Molly and I in the bedroom to try and work on getting her to eat. I hand fed her a few pieces and she ate those. Then, she sat for a little bit, and finally went to work on her own. Yay! I got all the pups a bedtime cookie when it was time.
