Shadow & Lucy

This morning I saw Lucy as soon as I opened the door. I think she was waiting for me! Haha. I went to the kitchen to get their food ready. Shadow came in and was rubbing his face on my leg while I did that. The kitties were both in the living room waiting for me when I finished with their box. They were both in a playful mood today! Shadow chased one end of the rope around, while I kept Lucy busy with the other. Then, I had them intrigued for awhile as I scratched the inside of the kitty tunnel. Shadow kept peeking through it at me. They made me laugh when they each had their little faces peeking in! Lucy got really crazy with the rope at one point and was jumping all over the place. She, of course, had to run off casually like nothing happened. She then went to look out the front door, and Shadow made his way to his window.

Chupie

Today as I pulled up, I saw a little furry black kitty sitting on the patio. It looked frightened and ready to take off at any moment, so I slowly walked up there. The kitty kept it's distance, so I let it be and headed inside. I didn't see Chupie today as I passed through, but I made sure her box was clean and she had plenty of food and water. I'm sure I'll catch a glimpse in the next few days. I was a little confused at first because I didn't see the two bowls for the outside kitties anywhere. I went back out to take another look and spotted one up against the neighbor's fence. I also saw the second bowl, a chair and a table! I'm assuming they were yours and got blown over there in the storm yesterday. I brought everything back and got the kitties some food as well. My little friend got spooked and ran off when I brought the chair back. Maybe it'll warm up to me later!

Daisy & Figaro

This morning I got in and started to get Daisy's food ready. She was sitting up in the window sill today, looking outside. She waited until I delivered her yummy snack, then she came down to eat. I got everything taken care of outside and called for Figaro. She didn't show up again today while I was there. I waited and continued to call, but didn't see any sign of her. Hopefully she will be back home waiting for her people to return!

Eddie & Butler

This morning the boys were happy to get outside. Eddie barely let me open Butler's crate, he was so excited! The boys both ran out to do their business, while I got their breakfast ready. Eddie heard that and came right in. Butler took his time. He nibbled just a little, but wasn't too hungry this morning. They ran back out later to play some more. This afternoon the boys spent plenty of time lounging on the patio. They wrestled around in the grass and patrolled the fence as well. Later, they came in to cool off. Butler plopped down by the front door and Eddie laid in the dining room.

Scout

This morning I opened the door to the house and stood outside and called for Scout. He must have been sleeping. It took a minute, but then he appeared at the door. He was being a little shy and wouldn't come out any further than that. So, I had to bribe him a little. :) I went and got one of his treats and tossed him a piece. He went and got that, then came over to check me out. He sniffed at me a bit, then accepted another piece of his treat. He followed me inside and took his pill for me like a good boy. After that we went back outside. I could tell that he was becoming more comfortable. I asked where his ball was and we went to get it. He didn't seem to interested in playing with that. I was trying to get him all excited so he would want to. Then, he got all crazy! I was stomping my feet and being silly and that got him running, and jumping and flailing his legs around! He made me laugh. We did that several more times and he seemed to be having fun. He just didn't feel like playing with any of his toys today, but that's ok too.

Eddie & Butler

This afternoon I let the boys out to play. They ran outside and explored the yard a little while. After that, they were laying in the grass. Butler was on his back and Eddie was laying on his belly pawing at his brother. They wrestled around and had fun. The boys ran over to visit me for a bit. They were quite curious about the horsey smell on me today. When it was time, we headed inside. Later today, I let the pups out for a potty break. When they returned, I got their dinners ready. Eddie went right in his bed to wait for his bowl to be delivered. Butler didn't seem to interested in his food at the moment. He went and laid on the living room floor, then rolled around and was acting silly. He eventually did eat his dinner for me. This evening, I let the boys out and they both spent a couple minutes saying hi. They went outside to play and explore for awhile. Later, Butler came in and stood in front of me and was all excited. It took me a second to realize he had a tennis ball in his mouth! The boys got all silly and wrestled around after that. They had fun playing tonight until it was time for bed.

Daisy & Figaro

This morning I was happy to spot Figaro snoozing on her chair when I walked in. She sat up and looked at me from her chair when she heard me inside. I got Daisy her food, then went to check everyone's boxes and food and water dishes. Figaro must have missed me! She was really trying to come inside with me every time I had to go in. She waited at the door, then returned to rubbing up against my leg as I walked. Finally, she got to have her attention! I sat down and she played with her toy for a bit. After that, she came and just sat in my lap, enjoying some lovins. Such a sweet kitty!

Shadow & Lucy

This morning both kitties came to wait in the kitchen, while I got their food ready. Shadow started to eat and Lucy went to sit by the door to look outside. I got them some fresh water and scooped their box. When I got back, Lucy gave me a meow and did a cute little hop towards me. She came over and got a little attention. I went to find Shadow, who was sitting in the office again. Lucy tagged along and hopped up next to him while I tried to get a picture. Lucy and I played in the living room for a little while with her rope. Shadow even came out to join in the fun! Lucy got bored and went to look out the front door again. Shadow continued to chase and pounce on the rope.

Rusty & Ruby

This afternoon I saw Rusty looking at me from the recliner in the living room. He had his head laying on the arm rest. Haha. I let Ruby out and she raced to the back door. I called for her, then she came running back and we headed out the side door. Ruby went out and did her business right away. She came back and sat with me for awhile. Rusty went out to the grass and flopped down next to his ball. Ruby went out to join him after awhile and they both rolled around a bit. Rusty and I played fetch when he was ready. We got a long game in today since it was cloudy and a bit cooler for him.

Oscar

This afternoon Oscar was ready for me. He pranced his way to the door and was happy for his pets and heiny scratches along the way. Once we got outside he was ready and waiting for more. He made me laugh, because he thought it was fun to walk back and forth through my legs! What a goofball. When he was done saying hi and getting his attention, he wandered out to the yard. I grabbed his frisbee and threw it for him a couple times. Unfortunately, the last time the wind caught it, took it way up and landed it on the roof. :( I tried to get it down for him but couldn't quite reach from the ground. It's sitting just above where the ceiling fan is on the patio. I'm sure someone could push it down with a broom from the window up there. I just didn't want to go roaming around the house where I didn't need to be lol. I didn't want to get his other frisbee stuck, so we held off on that. I got Oscar a drink, then he went to relax in the grass for awhile.
