Jackson

It was a very foggy start to our morning today. I let Jackson out when I arrived and went and got his breakfast ready. I joined him out back while he was roaming around and doing his thing. After awhile, we decided to take advantage that it wasn't raining yet, and went for a nice walk. The bunnies were out this morning. Jackson got soo excited when he'd spot one! He'd just stop and stare it down, waiting for it to move. If it took off running, he'd cry and try to pull us after it. Haha! When we got back home, we got out his frisbee and played some fetch. It was forecasting storms all day, so I kept him in for the day again. Well, it didn't rain a whole lot today... but it did get hot and muggy. So, at least Jackson got to stay nice and cool today. This evening we went out back for awhile. Jackson wandered around and checked things out, then lounged on the patio a bit. I got him to eat a good amount for dinner. Then, after that, we got a good frisbee game in before bed.

Sage

Today I came in and Sage was bouncing around in her cage. I saw she'd knocked her water pail over. I let her out, quickly cleaned her bed and filled her bucket for her. She got a drink, then cooled her feet off right away. Haha! I don't think it was dumped over for too long, since her kennel floor was still wet. She was now off roaming around the yard and checking things out. She would come over now and again for a throw of her kong. But, she was more interested in exploring today. She had fun rolling around in the grass quite a bit too! Later, I filled her food up and put her back in her bed. She's been eating great and doing well.

Jackson

This morning I arrived and Jackson was making his way to the door. I let him out to do his thing while I got his breakfast ready. I joined him out back and brought his food to try and get him to eat. He had to get his pets in first, of course! It was raining out for our visit this morning. So, we hung out under the roof of the patio and listened to the rain. I had him stay in for the day since we had more chance for rain and possibly some storms. This evening Jackson was ready to head outside when I arrived. He came and sat by me for some attention. I got him to eat his dinner, then he relaxed on the patio and enjoyed the beautiful evening. I think we have another day of rain ahead, but hopefully after that he'll get to spend more time outside.

Sage

It was kind of a rainy day today. When I came by to see Sage, we'd had a break in the rain. I saw she had a tiny bit of food leftover and the ants had taken over, so I tossed it in the trash. I let her out and she started racing around the yard. After I finished cleaning up, she was ready for a game of fetch. She chased her ball for awhile and would return it to me. Later, she was busy checking things out at the front of the yard. Whatever it was kept her pretty occupied! She eventually came back for some more fetch time. Soon, I fed her her dinner and put her back in her bed. I bet she'll sleep good tonight with all the running around she did!

Lucy & Shadow

Today I came in and spotted Lucy right away. She started meowing to me and kept brushing up against the wall, then would roll around on the floor. Shadow was lounging in one of the chairs in the living room. I got their breakfast ready send scooped their box. Back in the living room, Lucy was now sitting on her bench and watching the birds out the window. I got their rope toy and had Shadow playing for a few minutes. Then, Lucy took over and had fun chasing the rope. She was zooming back and forth through her tunnel and pouncing on the rope. She sure had fun this morning! Shadow eventually wandered over to go eat, then went and sat by his window in the front room. I got him some of his snacks before I left.

Billie, Roxy & the gang

This morning I checked gates and let the girls out for their morning potty break. I got their breakfast ready and got Billie's medicine out again. The girls came racing in and were ready to eat. Roxy decided to hop into Billie's crate with her at first. Haha! Goofy lady. I got them in their own beds and fed them their breakfast. While Billie worked on that, I fed Oreo and gave the hamster a little lettuce too. Once Billie was finished, I let them out again to play. The kitties got their water turned on and I scooped their box. Since they weren't up for attention today, I went out back by the pups. I saw Billie was lounging on her trampoline. The girls were busy wrestling around with each other most of the time. Soon, we headed in and they got put back in their beds. Everyone is doing great!

Sage

We had a beautiful morning outside today. This afternoon some storms rolled in. I timed it pretty good and went to see Sage when we had a little break from the rain. She was happy to see me and zoomed out as soon as I opened her door. Her water bucket was full to the brim from the rain! I cleaned her cage, then it was time for some fetch. It was a little cooler than yesterday, so Sage was able to keep going longer without breaks. She was one muddy pup today though! Haha. When the thunder started rumbling again, I put her back in her bed with her food. I wanted her to be able to eat dinner before it started raining again.

Lucy & Shadow

Today I came in and both kitties were sitting at the edge of the living room. Lucy meowed at me as soon as I got in. Shadow went over and sat by the food. Haha. I got their breakfast ready and tended to their box. Lucy was sitting at the back window, watching the birds in the backyard. Shadow waited in the living room for his snackies. I got out their stringy toy today and had Shadow playing. He sat behind the table and pawed at it sneakily. He was having a blast. Later on, Lucy joined in for a bit too.

Shadow

This morning I came in and Shadow came trotting down the hall shortly after. He met me in the kitchen and meowed at me while I got his breakfast and snacks ready. Shadow started chowing down while I scooped his box. He was a hungry boy I guess! Haha. He met me in the living room and came over to sniff at me and get a few pets. Shortly after that, he was back at his plate, snacking some more. Shadow got spunky later on and was zooming back and forth between his kitty towers! Haha. Later, we got some play time in with his feather toy.

Jackson

We had a beautiful morning outside today. I let Jackson out right away when I arrived. He did his business, then I joined him out back. I brought his food out with us to try and get him to eat his breakfast. He wasn't too worried about it, but a bird kept trying to get close to it. Haha! Jackson got some snuggled while we sat outside. Later, I went and got his Frisbee and we had some fun playing fetch with that. We were supposed to have some storms this afternoon, so I decided to keep him in today. This evening I came by just as the rain had stopped. Jackson was ready for his potty break. I brought his food out again and he finished his whole bowl tonight. He was having fun racing around back and enjoying the beautiful evening.

Billie, Roxy & the gang

This morning I came in and let the girls out for their potty break. I got their breakfast and Billie's medicine ready, then let them back inside. Billie worked on her food. Roxy likes to wait til after our visit to eat hers. While they were in, I fed Oreo and gave Journey a little bit of lettuce to snack on. The kitties had their faucet turned on and the shades opened. Salt came out to visit me again, but the other two hung out under the bed. I guess Pepper doesn't love me anymore! Haha. The girls went back outside after Billie ate and I sat out there with them for awhile. Later, I went in to try and visit the kitties a bit too. Only Salt wanted pets. This evening the rain had just let up when I arrived. We'd had some light storms this afternoon. The girls went out for their break after I checked gates quick. I fed the other kids and let them back in for their dinners too. They've both been eating great! When they went back out to play I went to see the kitties. Chili enjoyed some chin rubs under the bed. Salt had come out for a few pets too. Pepper wandered in to go drink from the faucet as I was heading back out by the pups.

Billie, Roxy & the gang

This evening I came in and let the girls out right away when I arrived. After checking to make sure gates were closed, I went in and got their dinners ready for them. The girls came in to eat while I checked on the kitties. Salt came out right away to say hi to me. I closed the blinds and turned on the faucet for them. Chili was just under the edge of the bed, and Pepper was under the middle. Neither of them wanted to come say hi tonight. Haha. I let the pups back outside while I fed Journey and Oreo. I loved all the notes for Journey! :) So cute. They got their dinners and I refreshed waters for the pups before joining them out back. The girls were quite excited at first, and eventually settled down. Billie lounged on the patio by me and Roxy was having fun entertaining herself out in the yard. She laid down and chewed on a bone for a bit, then shook her rope toy around, and even searched for worms. Haha. When it was time, the girls came in and I tucked everyone in for the night.

Sage

Today I came in and Sage got all excited. I let her out and today she was busy running laps while I cleaned her cage. I saw she'd been having fun in her water bucket just before I got there. It was pretty warm out today. I filled her bucket up with fresh water and put more in today in case she wanted to go swimming again. Haha. When I finished, we played a game of fetch. It was hit and miss today. Sometimes she'd go get it and bring it back, then others she'd run over there and get distracted by something else. She was standing on her hind legs today trying to check something out in the tree! Haha. Sage had a lot more fun exploring the yard and wasn't too worried about our game. When it was time, I got her dinner for her and her dental chew. She was carrying that around like a little cigar for a bit. That made me laugh!

Lucy & Shadow

Today I came in and Shadow was right by the door. Lucy came out and meowed at me when she saw me. Shadow helped me  in the kitchen while I got his canned food ready and filled his other dishes. He snacked while I went to scoop their box. When I returned, Shadow was sitting in the living room waiting for me. I knew what he wanted. Haha! I didn't see Lucy, so I went looking for her. She was hanging out in Shadow's usual place, by the window in the front room. I said hi to her and gave her some pets, then went back out by Shadow. He was sitting by the door, watching out front while he waited. I got him some snacks and he came over for a few pets.

Shadow

This morning I came in to meet Shadow at the door. He helped me get him some fresh food and his morning snacks. I went and scooped his box next. When he saw me coming back, he raced around and up to his kitty tower. We played with his feather toy for a bit. He ran around some more, then went and sat on his box by the back door to look out the window. In between snacking, he would come over for a few pets. This evening I came in and had his dinner all ready for him before he woke and came out to see me! He must have been having a really good nap. Shadow helped me in the bathroom while I scooped his box. Or, really he was just checking himself out in the mirror. Haha! We went to our spot in the living room afterwards and Shadow snuggled up in my lap for awhile. Later on, he sat on his box in the living room and watched out the window again.

Jackson

This morning I came in and Jackson was ready to head out. We went out back so he could do his business. It was a beautiful morning! We hung outside for a little while. Next, we went in and tried to get him to eat. He nibbled on a couple kibbles, but that was about it. So, we decided to go for a little walk instead, since it was so nice out! We saw a little Frenchie and his owner out walking too. Jackson got pretty excited when the other dog started barking at us. Haha. When we got back home, Jackson got to spend the rest of the day enjoying the outdoors. This evening I arrived and Jackson met me at the door. He was very happy to see me. He got some pets while I let him settle down. We worked on getting him to eat and he finally did for me. He finished pretty much his whole bowl! Yay! We hung outside for a little longer to enjoy the beautiful evening. When we headed in, Jackson got his snuggle time. I sat on the floor and he immediately he glued himself to me. Haha! He rolled over for some belly rubs too. Before I left, I got him a couple pieces of treats.

Jackson

This evening I came in and spotted Jackson right away. He remembered me this time and went and waited by the back door to go out. Yay! I let him out to do his thing. Then, he was immediately ready for his snuggles! Haha. He got plenty of pets and enjoyed the beautiful evening outside for a bit. We went in and he got a treat, then I grabbed one of his new toys. We took his new ball outside to try and play fetch. He wasn't too interested tonight. He would run over to it, but then would come running back to snuggle up to me. Silly boy. He lounged on the patio for awhile as we watched the sunset. Later we headed inside and tried to get him to eat his dinner. He wasn't too interested in that tonight either, but hopefully tomorrow.

Shadow

This evening I came in and Shadow was right at the door waiting for me. He started circling my legs right away while I read the notes quick. He helped me in the pantry to get his snackies. He got those down and worked on his food while I turned on lights and checked his box. When I finished, Shadow was sitting on the couch waiting for me. He got a few pets, then hopped down to come check out the other animal smells on me. After that, he snacked and spent some time playing in his box by the back door. He was sitting on top at one point and just meowing away! Haha.

Sage

Today Sage was jumping around in her crate when she saw me coming. She came racing out once I opened the door. Then, she did a few laps around the yard and returned to look for her kong. She got it and immediately wanted to play. I told her she had to wait until I finished cleaning up. When I was done, we got a nice game of fetch in. She would take breaks and lounge in the shade now and again. It was a beautiful afternoon! Sage spent some time roaming around and checking things out by the trailer. Before I left, I fed her her dinner.

Noell & Navi

This morning Navi met me in the laundry room. Noell was making her way into the kitchen too. She got her drops quick and then it was time for breakfast. I got the girls some food, which they snacked on as I scooped their box. Noell met me in the living room for a few pets while we waited for Navi. I got the laser light out and the girls took turns zooming around the room. They stalked the light and followed it everywhere. Navi went to look out the front window for awhile. Noell took some time to lounge on the cool tile floor in the dining room. Before I left, the girls watched while I filled their treat toys up.

Noell & Navi

This morning Navi met me in the kitchen. I said hi to her and she helped me start looking for her collar. I spotted it pretty quick under the table. I put it back on her right away. The girls led me to their room to grab dishes. I got their breakfast together for them and they snacked as I scooped their dishes. Noell came out and got a few pets. Navi came out next and I got their laser light. Navi did some zooms around the living room right away. She and Noell stalked the light as I shined it on the front door. Navi would stand on her back legs to paw at it. Noell eventually wandered out to her patio to lounge. Navi kept playing and chasing after her light.

Shadow

This morning I came in and started getting breakfast ready. Shadow eventually came wandering out from the hallway, running towards me to say hi. He helped me get his snacks together. I noticed he hadn't eaten his joint fishy chew from yesterday. I gave him his one for today in addition to the rest, hoping that he'd eat them both. Nope! He ate all but those two. Haha. After I scooped his box, Shadow came to snuggle on my lap for awhile. After that, he got some playtime on the couch with his toy, in between breaks to go snack on food.

Panda, Bu & Gus

This morning Panda and Bu were both snuggled in their beds. I opened their gate and Panda did a big stretch on his way over to see me. They followed along and headed out back to go potty. Gus was patiently waiting for his turn. Such a good boy! Panda and Bu came back in and I got them their breakfast since they were both waiting in their crates for it. I let Gus out next and he wandered around back for a few minutes. He came in and started itching himself along the couch. Haha! I let him roam the room while I got his breakfast for him. After visiting the pups, I went and took care of Tatty's things quick. She was still hiding out. This afternoon I came in to let the pups outside. Panda and Bu were just lounging in bed. They got up and came over to say hi. Then, it was time for their potty break. They wandered around outside for a bit, then it was Gus's turn. After he did his business, I turned on the AC for him. It was already toasty outside and getting warm in there. As I was coming back inside to leave, I spotted Tatty! She was standing in the living room and was just staring at me. I said her name, then she took off to hide behind the couch. Haha! This evening, the pups were napping again in different spots. I let them out to go potty. Panda came over when he finished and was busy smelling other animals on me. Bu came to join him when she finished. I let them in, the Gus was ready to head out. He did his thing. I got him some fresh water, then coaxed him into his bed. They did great!

Panda, Bu & Gus

This morning I came in and woke up the pups for their potty break. They both got up and met me at their door. Panda was leading the way out back and I had to go back and get Bu. She stopped along the way and just waited for me. Haha. She came running towards me once I started coaxing her to come along. The pups did their business. I let them to back in and got them their breakfast, then it was time for Gus to have his turn. He went out and pottied, then roamed around outside for a few minutes. When he was ready to come in, I fed him his breakfast too. This afternoon Panda and Bu were just lounging. Panda was sprawled out in his crate and Bu was in her comfy bed. I let them out to do their business. While Gus went out, I turned on the AC for him since it was getting a little warm in there. He came in and grabbed his bone out of his crate to goof around. I let him roam for a couple minutes while I checked on Tatty. This evening Panda and Bu both got up when they heard me come in. They followed along to the door. Well, Panda did. I had to go coax Bu out again. Haha! She's silly. They roamed around out back and did their thing. Gus went out for his turn and he took his time to check things out a bit too. I got him some fresh water for the night and turned off the air. It was comfortable in there now and should cool off outside overnight.

Shadow

This morning I came in and started getting breakfast ready. Soon, Shadow woke up and came out to say hi. He kept trying to nibble on my leg this morning, so I had to dance around so he couldn't get me. Haha! Shadow came in the pantry to supervise while I got his treats out. After he ate, Shadow came and sat in my lap for awhile and enjoyed some pets. After that, I got him to play with his toy for a few minutes. He got bored not long after that and went to go look out the front window for a bit. This evening Shadow must have been napping again. I came in and started getting his food ready. Eventually he came out to see me. I got the lights on and checked his box. He met me in the living room and was ready for playtime. He had fun laying on the couch and wrestling with his toy. He wasn't too into the shreds version of food tonight, so I opened up one of his favorite ones instead and got him a little bit of that too. He went right over and started chowing down.

Shadow

This morning Shadow was up and waiting at the door for me. He circled my legs while I got his breakfast ready. He helped me in the pantry while I got out all his treats. He snacked a bit and I took care of his box quick. Shadow came out by me afterwards and stood next to me for a few pets while he sniffed at me. Shortly after that, he was in his crazy play mood! He tackled his stringy toy and rolled around with it. Then, he'd race up to his kitty tower. He would jump down to tackle his toy, then race back up again to "hide". One time, he took off racing down the hall! Haha. This evening I came in and Shadow must have been napping. He came in a couple minutes later to greet me. I got his dinner ready for him. He seemed determined to nibble on the back of my leg today! Stinker. Haha. After he ate, Shadow was ready for some more play time. He first tried tackling my leg, so I had to move quick and redirect him to his toy. Goofy cat. He raced around and up and down his tower while he pounced on his toy.
