Jazzper

I went to let Jazzper out this morning. Good thing you guys live so close, otherwise I don't think I would have made it! We had 50mph winds last night and at least 8 inches of snow! We ended up pushing my car most of the time, and I didn't even make it to your house! I had to walk the rest of the way from where my car got stuck in a big snow drift. On the side of the house the drifts were above my knees! I had a hard time getting the gate open, but was able to work it far enough for me to squeeze through. Jazzper came out ok today, since it was nice and sunny and not blowing like crazy. She snuggled with me for a little bit. I shook the snow off her blankets and dumped out her food bowl since it was all full of snow.

Jazzper

Jazzper didn't come out of her house till I was in front of it today, since it was so yucky out! One of the patio chairs had blown in front of her doorway. A few other things had blown over and the pool cover was billowing up with the wind! Her food and blankets were covered in the icy sleet that was getting blown around. It stung when it hit any part of me as I walked to and from the house! Jazzper ran inside when I put the mail away. She came over to me so I knelt down and she put her head in my arms and snuggled. She stayed by me and warmed up while I pet her. When I got up to leave, she ran into the living room and hid from my view! I kept calling her to get her to go out, but she would only come so close if I had the door open. If I closed it, then she would come up to me. I left her in for the night and will stop by quick later to let her go potty. It should be done by tomorrow so she can go back out in the morning.

Duffy & Dory

The girls started barking at the door before I got inside today! Duffy wasn't quite as social today. She stayed out for awhile when I got there. I pet her for a bit, then she went behind the couch. I went into the bathroom and cleaned their box, and Duffy poked her head inside. I guess she knew what was coming next! They both got their treats. When Duffy was finished she walked off into the bedroom. Dory and I played fetch and snuggled!

Suzzie, Heiny, Boo, Quartz, Fudge & Fluffy

Boo met me at the door as usual. Fudge was all snuggled up on the blanket covering the back of the couch. I quick let the girls in so they could warm up. They didn't even want to come in because they were all cozy and snuggled in their little house! Heiny stuck her head out and looked at me for a minute. Then she finally decided to come in! They both got all icy just from walking to the house. I got Boo's food ready and saw Fluffy all curled up in and under the pillows on your bed! All I could see was her head. I went over to her and she let me pet her! She must have been too cozy to run off. I opened the cabinet under the sink before I left and let the girls go back outside.

Cali

I cut Cali's visit short today so that I could make it safely to all my scheduled sits before the roads got too slick. There was already a layer of ice on everything when I left my house! She got a new flavor of soft food today, so she didn't have to wait for it to warm up. I cleaned out her litter and made sure she was all set for the night.

Duffy & Dory

The girls both were at the door when I came in. They started running around and rolling all over the floor! Duffy wasn't quite as shy this time. She stayed out most of the time I was there today. I gave them both their treats. Dory brought me her ball and we played fetch for awhile. Then one time she didn't bring it back to me. She decided she was ready to snuggle! She climbed up into my lap while I pet her. She gave me lots and lots of kisses!

Suzzie, Heiny, Boo, Quartz, Fudge & Fluffy

Boo and Quartz both came running for their daily treats! Boo kept trying to get at the ones I gave to Quartz, even though he still had some of his own to eat yet. They started snuggling with each other on the bathroom counter, so cute! I let the girls in, and they were both a little wet from all the rain and storms we had today. I had to wipe up the floor from all the dirty foot prints! I cleaned out the litter pans today and Boo was following me around helping out. He jumped up on the bathroom counter when I was cleaning that one. He started pawing at me and petting my head! lol I sat up a little bit then he pawed at my shoulder and rubbed his face on my forehead. I tried looking for the other two today and only found Fudge. Fluffy must have a good hiding spot! Fudge was sleeping in the computer chair. Right now they're saying we might get up to 6 to 8 inches of snow tomorrow!

Cali

Cali was waiting for me at the door as usual. I had to fill up her food container finally today. She sat and stared at me, waiting for her soft food while it was warming up. Since the shoe string was such a big hit yesterday, we played with that for a long time again today! She rolled around and chased after it for awhile, but then I think she got tired. She decided she was hungry and ate some of both kinds of food. She came back to play for a little while, then Cali went and sat in her window to watch the rain. Before I left the thunder started up again. She sort of froze and listened for it. I called her and she sat in my lap for a few minutes, then sat in her chair.

Jazzper

Jazzper barked at me a little when I first came into the backyard. After I went over to her, she stopped and smelled me for a minute. I pet her and then I think she felt better and maybe remembered me. I went inside to put the mail away and she came in with me, then went out right away when I called her. A couple times I heard cars go by and she would run over to the fence and put her ears up. I sat in a patio chair and pet her for awhile. She laid her head in my arm and just loved it up! I got some of her itchies and found a spot where she started leaning into me. She didn't eat much of her food from yesterday, but I gave her a little more just in case. It's supposed to snow and get cold tomorrow, so I think I will put her inside tomorrow afternoon for overnight.

Suzzie, Heiny, Boo, Quartz, Fudge & Fluffy

The girls came running up to the fence when I pulled in. Boo met me at the door and got his treats right away. I called for Quartz, he didn't come right away, but of course popped up when I had put the treats away and was headed for the hallway! So he followed me back into the kitchen and I got his treats for him and tried to keep Boo away while he ate them. I let the girls in and gave them some attention. After Heiny was done munching on her food, she laid down with Boo's bowl in between her front legs and just licked and licked! Poor Suzzie girl just squirms back and forth between me and her food bowl. I had her pawing at my legs while Boo was jumping up on my lap and Heiny was nudging my elbow! Not enough hands for everyone! lol I didn't see Fudge or Fluffy today, so they must have been under one of the beds. When I headed back to turn off the lights in the bedroom, I found Quartz and snuggled on the bed.
