Suzzie, Heiny, Boo, Quartz, Fluffy, Fudge & Kitty Cat

Suzzie and Heiny came up to the fence to say hi today, tails-a-wagging! I went in the house and Boo came out and got his treats before I went to turn on the sink for Quartz. Someone got sick a few times today, but no other surprises! The mats were all dry; so far so good. Fluffy and Fudge were both curled up on a bed, and they both let me pet them and didn't move or attempt to run and hide! I guess they've seen me enough times now. lol I let the girls in so they could eat and enjoy the cool house. Heiny did her usual eating circle... take a bite from one bowl, walk around the table to the next bowl, continue crunching on her food on the way back to the first bowl, repeat. haha! While they were eating, I went outside to see if I could find Momma Cat. I walked to the hog pen and tried calling for her. I heard a meow back at me, then she came out and walked over to me. She sure is big! I bet she'll be having them soon! I pet her for awhile, then went to go get a scoop of food for her. As I came out the front door she met me at the porch, then ran ahead and showed me where her food goes!

Mimi

This morning Mimi was just walking in from the living room to greet me. I pet her for a long time in the kitchen before I took care of her food, water and litter pan. She hopped into the sink while I was scooping out her food, and I was going to rinse off the spoon afterwards. She didn't try to move when I turned the water on! I guess she knew she had her body curved in such a way that she wouldn't get wet. She ran ahead of me into the living room for our play time. Today we played with her little brown blanket. I put my hand underneath it and moved it around. She stared, then moved her head in all sorts of directions excitedly, then pounced! She rolled around with the blanket and stuck her head under it, searching for the moving thing. Later it started to rain outside, so she sat in the window and watched.

Bear, Coco & Mia

This morning I said hi to Mia and let her go potty outside. Coco was curled up on the other couch in the sitting room, meowing at me. I went and pet her for a little bit before I got their breakfast ready. Bear woke up as soon as I walked in the room and moved closer for me to pet her. Mia and I went for a nice long walk again this morning. We passed a couple houses that had dogs outside. They were barking as we passed by, and Mia started to whine a little. When we got home, I sat in the kitchen with Mia for awhile to give her some company so she'd eat her breakfast. This afternoon I let Mia sit outside until she was ready to come back in. It was super hot and humid this afternoon, so she didn't want to be out too long. I brought Coco some lunch in her hiding spot in the closet. I could hear Bear calling for me! By the time Coco was finished eating, Bear had decided to come see where I was. Bear had some lunch while I pet her. Tonight Coco ate a good amount for me. Bear got down off the bed and had some supper too after I pet her for awhile. I took Mia for another long walk after I fed Coco and Bear. Once we got home, she sprawled out on the floor next to me. I sat at the dining table again with her so she would eat for me. She did like a good girl! Afterwards, she went and curled up by the couch in the sitting room and I spent some time with her. She's such a sweetheart!!

Roxie, Ralphi & Rudy

This afternoon I let everyone out in the backyard to go potty and get a drink while I got their leashes. They all were sitting by the door looking in, waiting to see what I was up to! As soon as they saw what was in my hand, they all got very excited. Rudy would hardly sit still long enough for me to get his collar on! When I let them in, they pulled me quickly through the house to the front door. There were some clouds out here and there, keeping the sun from beating down too much. We had a nice breeze too, so it didn't feel too hot and we were able to take a nice long walk. I let them play for awhile out in the backyard after we got home. They sure were thirsty! Rudy wanted to swim in the bowl of water again. He even gave me a cool bath! haha!

Mimi

This morning the neighbor ladies were keeping Mimi company again. I got to meet Lily and Half Pint this morning too! Mimi was waiting at the door for me and was very happy to see me. She walked in and out around my legs and let me pet her for a long time. After I got her canned food out, we played for awhile. I brought down her twisty tie and she went crazy chasing around after it! She ran and slid herself under the chair and batted at it, while rolling around. This afternoon Mimi was even more playful! She immediately went to her spot under the table and stuck her legs out to get my fingers. She zoomed out to her blanket and crouched down, ready to chase after anything. I brought the twisty tie out again and she chased after that and tossed it around for herself. Later, she was looking for something under the little blanket. She had her head all the way under it with her heiny up in the air! She settled down after awhile and decided to sit in her window and watch the birds outside.

Toby, Tyson & Morgan

This morning I found Toby snoozing on the bed. He was pretty sleepy still and didn't move even after I had come in and started petting him! Once he got up, we went for a really long walk this morning. It was nice and cool out yet, and very quiet. All we could hear was the rooster somewhere in the distance giving his morning call. Toby must have found a trail from something, because he suddenly got excited and his little sniffer was going a mile a minute! He was pooped when we got home, so we just sat on the couch and he got a tummy rub. This afternoon Toby was in his spot on top of the couch with Morgan. Toby and I went outside for awhile so he could go potty. He could hear the neighbors outside talking and he sure didn't like that! He barked for a little bit, but was soon distracted. It was pretty hot and humid out, so he wanted to go back inside. He still hadn't finished his supper from last night, and usually he does by now. So, I stood in the kitchen with him to give him some company, in case that might help. It worked and he ate all his food for me! Morgan took advantage of Toby being occupied and he hopped up on the counter for some attention. He picked up the sunglasses on the counter! Silly kitty. I looked around for Tyson this afternoon but couldn't find him, so he must have a good hiding spot!

Luke & Maycie

Tonight I said hi to Luke and Maycie as I was coming through the door. Maycie started to bark and Luke made one little deep sound. But, as soon as I had passed the corner, Luke had his ball in his mouth ready to play! They both were wagging their tails and ready to go outside. Maycie said hi to me for awhile. Luke and I got right to our game of fetch. I grabbed his red ball off the table out back and threw that for him. He was trying to fit both that and the tennis ball in his mouth! He figured out if he grabbed the tennis ball first, he could hang onto them both. Maycie chased with him several times, and eventually got the tennis ball for herself. I would throw the red ball for Luke and she would toss the tennis ball for herself and go running with him! Silly girl! As it was getting darker, it started to take Luke longer and longer to find it. The last time he just gave up and laid in the grass. He was pretty tired out! We went back inside and I got them some fresh water to cool down.

You can throw that one, or that one, or both at the same time! I'm ready!!!

Bear, Coco & Mia

This morning Mia was watching out the window again. She rolled over as soon as I came in and pawed at me. I pet her for a little bit, then let her outside. She walked around to the other patio and laid out there while I got the Bear and Coco's food ready. After Coco finished eating what she felt like, I went in and spent some time with Bear. Mia and I went for a nice long walk this morning around the neighborhood. It's so funny to watch her dance around when I grab the leash! We avoided the sprinklers that were on in some people's yards. When we got home she curled up in the kitchen, then I rubbed her tummy while she laid by the couch. If I stopped, she would half sit up and paw at me until I started again. Such a cutie! This afternoon I let Mia hang out in the backyard while I spent some time with Coco and Bear. Coco was sleeping in her new spot in the closet. I woke her up to have some lunch and she ate about half of the food right away. Bear talked to me and loved up every second while I brushed and pet her! Coco was following me around the house and meowing at me. Mia was ready to come back inside after a little while since it was pretty hot out.  Tonight Mia was already standing at the door waiting for me, tail a-wagging! She started to dance around excitedly when I got inside and began to pet her. I was trying to head to the back door to let her out potty, but she was too happy getting pet that she wouldn't let me walk! I let her out back and spent some time with Bear and Coco. Bear perked up as soon as I walked in and started walking toward me. Coco came out too and had some supper before curling back up in her closet. Bear snuggled up with me while I pet and brushed her, and in return she gave me kisses. After a little bit I took Mia out for a nice long walk again. She was so happy! After I got her leash hooked up she raced to the door. She was pretty tired when we got home, and laid down on the floor while I gave her a good tummy rub. Mia eventually got up and walked into the other sitting room, so I followed her to see what she was up to. I guess she was ready for bed! She had curled up on one of the couches.

Toby, Tyson & Morgan

Toby barked as soon as he heard me shut my car door. He wasn't right there when I opened the door though. He was all crouched down on the couch, wiggling his little heiny! He came to say hi and then we went outside to play for a bit. When we came in he ran into the bedroom and curled up on the bed. Tyson was sleeping on the little pet bed in the corner. Morgan followed me in there and I pet him while I was talking to Toby. He hopped down and took over for Morgan! Toby and I played tug of war with a rope toy, then chased each other around the living room. Once he was tired, we sat on the couch and he got his tummy rubbed! Tonight when I got there Toby was excited to see me. Morgan came up to me right away while I was sitting on the ground to get some loving, then I sat on the couch to give some attention to Toby. We sat for a little bit before going for a long walk. It was a little cooler out, the sun had gone down, but still a little humid. When we got back he was pretty energetic yet and I chased him around the living room and he ran as fast as he could around the couches. So funny! He got tired out and spent a few minutes with me on the couch before I left for the night.

Mimi

This morning Mimi was sitting in her window, visiting with the neighbors who were outside talking. She was already at the door as I opened it. Mimi was very lovey today! She rubbed against me and I pet her as she walked back and forth. She hopped into the sink again while I scooped out her canned food. She had gotten out a purple feathery ball from her bowl since the last time I saw her. As I made my way into the living room, she quickly zoomed under the table and was ready to play! After awhile she decided to sit and watch the birds flying around outside. This evening Mimi wasn't sitting in her usual spot when I came to see her. I found her sleeping on mom's bed! After I said hi, she followed me out into the kitchen. She was happy to see me again and loved up all of her attention. She laid on her brown blanket in the living room, crouched down with her heiny in the air, ready to pounce! We played for a little while, then she sat and watched the birds outside again.

You can't see me, I blend in perfectly with this blanket!
