Caleb

Today I came in and Caleb sat straight up and watched me. I let him out and we went outside for a little bit. He grabbed a blue squeaky toy to bring with him! I tossed it for him a couple times out there, then he wanted back in. He didn't try to eat anything while I was there today! I grabbed out his orange puzzle toy and put some more treats in there. He played with that for a little bit, then we found a green squeaker to have fun with! I threw that around and he played "keep-away" from me with it. Sometimes he'd let me grab ahold of it, so that we could play tug-of-war. He really does slide right into the wall! He got going to quick on that tile floor once and just couldn't stop himself in time... oops! He would lay down and set the toy down to take a breather, but he kept his tongue on it the whole time, just in case! I got him pretty tired out this afternoon. He came and laid by me and put his head on my lap while I gave him a good tummy rub. One time, he even flopped his whole body across my lap! He's so funny!

Cali & Miss Ella

Miss Ella was waiting for me again today. She walked ahead of me to the different rooms as I went to clean the litter boxes. She and I sat outside on the patio for a little while. Cali didn't want to come out with us today. She was too comfortable on her chair in the office! Miss Ella and I came in and spent some time in by Cali. She made her way out to the living room and sat on a speaker to watch as I played with Miss Ella! I was petting her for awhile and she suddenly got playful. She swatted at my fingers and rolled around all over the place.

This picture is so hilarious!

Kira, Bunky & Lisa Lee

Bunky was laying behind the couch towards the front door today. I found Kira and Lisa Lee both curled up on the bed while I was cleaning the litter box. I gave them their yummy treat food today! Lisa Lee was first to come running while I was getting it ready. She meowed in her tiny little voice at me the whole time! The other two soon came into the kitchen to eat their share. When Bunky was finished she went and laid in the middle of the living room. Kira came to me to get her brushing for the day. Lisa Lee came wandering over a couple times, and even hopped up in the chair with me. She started to purr and curled up in my lap for awhile.

Dakota & Benny

Benny was zooming around the living room as usual today! We took a nice walk this afternoon. Even though it was pretty hot out, they didn't seem to mind. They were too excited! It was pretty quiet out today. They stopped to sniff around a lot but there weren't too many dogs out to chase along fences with. There was a jogger and a few other people washing cars or mowing lawns that Benny had to bark at instead! Once we got home they were pretty tired. Benny was so pooped that he laid right on the entryway tile tfloor as soon as he got inside. She was stopping to squat a lot on the walk today, but I'm not sure what she was trying to do. So, I let Kota go out back for a few minutes to finish her business.

Sugar, Buddy, Jimmy & Charlie

Jimmy was sure happy to see me today! He was bouncing up and down all the way to the back door. Buddy said hi to, but he was more interested in getting outside to do his searching! I let the boys go play outside while I looked for Sugar. I couldn't find her anywhere! I looked in every open room multiple times, while calling for her. I got out some treats and usually she comes running, or at least starts barking. But I didn't see or hear her. I went out by the boys for a little bit, thinking maybe she'd come when she felt like it. Jimmy laid down in the grass to soak up some sun. Buddy was exploring. Suddenly, Jimmy jumped about a foot in the air! Then he went to go sniff at whatever startled him. I looked and it was a big nightcrawler! The boys came in with me and helped me look all over for Miss Sugar again after I gave Buddy his eye medicine. I was just about to give up when she stuck her little nose out from underneath the pillows on the bed! Little stinker!
You rang?

Cali & Miss Ella

Miss Ella met me at the door today and trotted along with me everywhere I went! I said hi to her for a few minutes, then took care of their litter pans. Ella helped me look for Cali, since she hadn't come out to see me yet. We found Cali sitting in the office, curled up on the chair. Miss Ella and I decided to go sit out on the patio for a bit. Cali later came and peeked through the window at us, but wasn't quite ready to come out. I opened the door for her again later and then she decided she was ready! Cali rolled around on the ground while Miss Ella curled up in the sunlight. They both perked up and swung their heads around when they heard a bird singing nearby!

Kira, Lisa Lee, Bunky

Kira and Bunky were sitting in the living room when I came in today. Lisa Lee came out to say hi shortly after. When I finished taking care of their things, I sat in the chair and got the brushes out. Kira was loving up every second! She licked at my legs the whole time I brushed her. Bunky came over to get brushed as well. I called for Lisa Lee and she came to see what was going on. They all were laying by me getting brushed! Kira cleaned Lisa Lee's face for a little bit too.

Maggie & Moe

The girls came running from the bedroom to see me today! We went outside so they could go potty right away. It was raining pretty heavily, and the girls were both hesitant to walk out into the grass at first. Maggie braved the rain first, then Moe quickly went out. Once inside, I gave them their treat! Maggie curled up on the couch next to me and Moe ran around back and forth between me and her food. I think it's so funny how she likes to eat out of that tiny bowl! Moe came back and rolled around on the floor by me, acting so silly. She zoomed into the bedroom and came out with a rawhide that was almost as big as she was! They both gave me so many kisses. Maggie eventually went into the bedroom and curled up on her little doggie bed, while laying her head on a stuffed animal. Miss Moe and I went in by her and Moe rolled over on her back while I rubbed her tummy.

Dakota & Benny

Today it was still storming when I came to see Kota and Benny, so we had to play inside. I let them out right away to go potty. Benny did his business, quickly grabbed a ball, then came right back inside. Kota didn't seem to mind the rain as much and ran around out in the backyard for a little bit. I cleaned her up when she wanted to come in and we played some more. Benny kept rolling around by me and having me rub his tummy. I scratched him all over and got his little leg going like crazy! Kota and Benny wrestled around for awhile, then we all chased each other around. We played fetch with Kota's food and she jumped and tossed it around for herself.

Heathcliff, Atticus, Ava & Chance

Heathcliff and Atticus both came running when I came in today! Both boys followed me all over the place. They all were slightly craving some attention! They had finished all their food, so I filled their bowls and gave them their wet food right away. They got right to eating as I started to clean all the litter boxes. Ava was trying to eat while I was scooping the food in her dish. I refilled their bowl that was on the nightstand, and they both jumped up and had to drink out of it right away! It must taste better than the water on the bathroom counter I guess... I went out and filled the sink for Atticus. He sat and stared at it while I pet him for awhile. I looked around for Heathcliff since he wasn't following me anymore, and I found him in the kid's room sitting on the little table by the crayons! I spent some time petting him before I went back by Ava and Chance. Chance had finished eating and was sprawled out on the floor. Ava was getting her attention in, when a little white foot was popping in underneath the door! It startled me for a second and Ava went over to check it out. Atticus was trying to play and later Heathcliff sat by the door to see what was going on too.

"Did you just see that?!"
"Ok, I'm ready... turn it on!"
