Bella & Chico

This morning it was cold, windy and raining again. I let the pups out and they ran out to quickly do their business. Chico came back inside as quickly as he could. Miss Bella hung out on the patio under the covered part and looked around. She checked out her favorite corner a bit as well. Chico was busy working on his breakfast. Then, he went back to his cozy bed. He sure doesn't like this cold stuff! Miss Bella came in and worked on her breakfast next. She was scared of the grill cover flapping around again, so she hung out by me for the rest of the time, enjoying her snuggled and heiny scratches. This afternoon the rain hadn't let up yet. I let the pups out and Bella raced outside. Chico went out to the patio, but did not want to go out into the rain this time. I tried to get him to go out to go potty, but he didn't want to. He wanted back in the nice warm house! The pups spent most of the time inside this afternoon. Even Bella didn't want to go out much. They both ate a big lunch for me and came by for their pets. Before I left, I got them each their peanut butter snacks.

Shadow

This morning Shadow met me at the door. He quickly ran into the pantry and stood in the box of water bottles while I got his morning treats out. He waited in his spot until I delivered his breakfast for him. While he was busy, I scooped his box. When I got back, he was ready for some attention. Shadow came and sat in my lap, then took turns snacking and coming back for more pets. The last time, he sat with his back up against me and decided it was time for a bath. Haha. This evening Shadow met me at the door as usual. I got him some dinner and got his treats out for him. When I returned from scooping his box, Shadow met me in the living room. He curled up in my lap right away. I guess the cold and rain was getting to him today too. He was all about the snuggles tonight! Shadow just sat in my lap, purring loudly and enjoying his pets. He sat there pretty much right up until it was time to go.

Panda, Nani, Tatty & Boo

This morning I saw the pups had played their games again last night! I had a good laugh as Boo was staring up at me from the middle crate. "What?" Haha. I will make sure to put her leftovers up at my last visit so Panda doesn't start getting too much extra food. I let the kids all out and they braved the cold and rain to do their business. They wandered around the dog room while I cleaned up beds and got their breakfast. Meanwhile, they were playing musical cages. Haha! They started all getting into the same one. What goofy pups. I got everyone sorted out and fed them breakfast. This afternoon it was still raining. Yuck. Miss Nani was snoozing when I got in. The other two were up and ready to head out. We all lined up and made our way out back. Nani didn't want to go out at first, but after a little convincing she did. When they came in, I got them more water and went to check on Tatty. She's doing alright, just still isn't ready to say hi. This evening I came to let the pooches out for their potty breaks. Boo was bouncy and excited. She cracks me up. Everyone went out back and did their thing. They got to wander around their room a little while I got them all new water. Panda would run up and shake his paw at me for some attention. Haha. Lastly, it was time to check on Tatty. She was in her usual spot. I knelt down and talked to her, trying to get her to come out. Maybe tomorrow.

Oreo & Stuffs

This evening both boys were in the dining room waiting to see when I'd arrive. Stuffy ventured to the living room and Oreo met me in the kitchen. He meowed at me while I got his dinner ready. By the time I finished with their other things, the boys were both waiting for me. Stuffy was ready for his fireplace time. I filled the treat toy for Oreo so he was excited about that. He got some snacks out, then he came and snuggled up by me for some pets. He kept going back and forth, so I moved the toy closer to us so he could get treats and pets at the same time! Stuffy got himself all cozy by the fire. It was a perfect night for that with the cold and rainy evening we had.

Shadow

This morning Shadow came and greeted me at the door. He quickly zoomed into the laundry room to check out if he was missing anything. Haha. He has been eating great each meal this week! I picked up his old plate and got him a new plate of fresh food. He went to work on that while I tended to his other things quick. When I got back, he started the kitty hacking like he was going to get sick. So, I quickly picked him up and raced him to the kitchen. I guess he ate a little too much to quick this morning. He has been very good and has never done that up until now for me. I cleaned up quick, then he and I sat in the living room. He snuggled up in my lap for a bit, then ventured off to his room. This evening Shadow met me at the door and helped me get his dinner ready. He did much better this evening and snacked here and there like usual. He would come sit on my lap in between snackings. Shadow enjoyed his pets tonight and just purred away.

Ginger & Tiger

This morning was pretty nice out, but the rain is on its way. Ginger was up and ready to go outside. I let her out and went back to get Tiger. He was still snoozing away! He woke up and joined her out back. They hung outside for a little while since it was nice out. When they came in, Ginger tried to make a break for the bedroom. Haha! I got them back to the kitchen and Ginger got her morning meds. I made sure that the pups had plenty of food and water, then I got them each a snack.

Bella & Chico

This morning the pups were ready to head outside. I opened their doors and they both zoomed out. We all headed outside this morning since it was pretty nice out. I put the food down for them and they took turns coming in to snack. Miss Bella was busy exploring and checking out her bushes for any little critters out there. When it was time, they came in and I got them each some cookies. This afternoon the rain was just starting. We have some nasty weather on the way. Chico did his business, then went back to his room and hung out in there. He wasn't having any of that! He would come out occasionally to check on things and say hi, and maybe even get a few bites to eat. Miss Bella didn't mind and was still roaming around out on the patio, checking for things. She would come in to get some pets from me, then would be back out exploring. This evening the rain had turned to a downpour. The pups both did their business, then hung out inside. Miss Bella would venture out onto the patio just under the cover of the roof. The wind started to blow and it made the grill cover flap around a bit. That kind of freaked her out! She came running in and would just peek out the door at it. Haha! Chico went and hid out in his room. He didn't want anything to do with that cold, blowing rain.

Hudson, Zel, Gabbie & Blackie

This morning both Gabbie and Hudson met me at the door. Blackie was up too, and was making his way to the kitchen to say hi. I let them out and saw Zel was still snoozing in her bed. She hopped up when she heard the door and went out with the others. They were all waiting at the door after they did their business, ready for breakfast! After they all finished, we all headed outside. It was actually quite nice outside this morning, so the pups had plenty of time out back to play. Eventually the girls wanted in, so I let them go inside while Hudson stayed out a little longer. He was busy chasing after something out there! The girls both snuggled in their bed by the couch until it was time to get tucked in their crates. Blackie hung around for a few pets, then he went off to bed as well.

Panda, Nani, Tatty & Boo

This morning I came in and saw Boo and Panda had pulled a fast one on Miss Cindy and switched beds for the night. Haha! I let the pups all out and they wandered outside to do their business. It was pretty nice out this morning, so they weren't in a hurry to get back inside. After everyone pottied, it was time for breakfast! I got everyone their food, and Nani got her benadryl and had her eye wiped clean. They went to work while I went to check on Tatty. No kitty under the bed this morning.... then I noticed a big lump in the blankets. She was all burrowed under the covers. I lifted it up to peek at her and she came out. I got a quick pet in before she zoomed off to hide under the bed. So, I went and left her her snacks since she's still not ready to warm up just yet. This afternoon the clouds were rolling in. We have some nasty weather on the way. It was raining a little already, but not too bad. The pups all came out and did their business for me. Such good kids! We headed inside and I got them all some fresh water. Tatty was under the bed again and still didn't feel like coming out. She has been enjoying all the treats I leave out every time though! She might be a little "fluffier" when you get home. Hehe. This evening the rain had arrived. It was downpouring and roads are already flooding. Yay. I let the pups out of their beds and they made their way to the door. All three took a look outside and said "Nope!". Haha. Nani gave it a shot at least. Such a good girl. She ended up pottying on the floor just inside the door, so I cleaned that up. I sure don't blame them for not wanting to go out there! The other two eventually decided they really had to go and they ventured out and braved the torrential rains to do their business. They came inside and I tucked them in their beds before going to check on Tatty. I scooped her box and left her a couple more snacks.

Oreo & Stuffs

This evening both boys met me in the kitchen and wanted some hello pets. I wished them a Merry Christmas and then got their dinner ready. Stuffy wandered on into the living room and sat by the fireplace to get ready. After I filled their treat toy, Oreo and I went over by him. I turned the fire on for him and he snuggled up close. Both boys worked on their treats for a bit. Oreo came and sprawled out next to me for some chin rubs, then would work on treats some more. I have to laugh at some of his methods. He's pretty good at it!
