Oreo & Stuffs

This evening Oreo was making his way down the stairs to see me. I got him some food, which he got to work on right away. When i walked back through the kitchen, I saw it was Stuffy who was eating! They must have switched. Oreo was sitting in the entryway by my shoes, waiting for me to finish. The boys both appeared in the living room to sit with me. Oreo laid down and snuggled up by me. Stuffy sat just close enough for me to pet his back a little. He eventually scooted further away, but stayed in the living area. Oreo was purring away and loving up his attention.

Rusty, Ruby & the kitties

This afternoon Ruby came out of her bed and started racing around the house. I let her out and then called for Rusty. He finally got up and followed along. Ruby ran around outside for a minute and did her business. She didn't take too long before she ran back inside. It was very nice out today! Rusty rolled around and lounged in the grass awhile. He brought me his ball occasionally for some throws. In between catches, he would stop to sniff around. He explored most of the time today. When we went in, I peeked in the bedroom to see if Lance was around. He was snoozing on mom and dad's bed.

Oreo & Stuffs

This evening Oreo came running through the dining room to meet me at the front door. He started rubbing his cheek against my legs already then! He followed along to the kitchen, where Stuffy was waiting. Stuffs meowed at me a couple times, then nibbled on some dry food, while he waited. Oreo wanted the good stuff! The boys met me in the living room, and both sat next to me. Today, it was Stuffy who didn't hang out very long. He went to go snack on the canned food while he had the chance. Oreo was moving from one spot to the next, rolling around and making sure I got every inch of his chin scratched for him. He was even being lovey with his cardinal toy! Haha. Later, he got up as well to go eat some more.

Rusty, Ruby & the kitties

This afternoon I let Ruby out when I arrived. It was pouring pretty good outside. I walked out with Ruby to help coax her along, to go out and do her business. She was quick to go potty, then was ready to go back inside. It was thundering out, so Ruby went to hide by the bed. Poor little lady was shivering! Rusty was lounging on his chair in the front room. Lance wandered in and started playing with the fabric on the bottom of the chair. Goofy cat. When he got bored with that, he snuggled up with Rusty for awhile. Ruby later joined us and sat next to me.

Winston

This afternoon Winston was lounging in his bed when I walked in. He popped right up when he saw it was someone new! I let him out and he began bouncing all over the place. I got him all hooked up and ready for our walk. He peed right away for me. We continued walking around until he finished his business. It wasn't long before the rain started coming down, so we headed back inside to play instead. He ran and got me a toy right away. Winston found his rope toy and wanted to play some tug. He made me laugh when he kept hopping backwards, trying to get more leverage. I got him to drop it for me, then I tossed it around for him to go fetch. One time, he decided to bring a new toy back instead. It was grey and white, but I'm not sure what it was. Haha. He tried to play tug with that too. He would put it on my hand, then would start to talk if I grabbed ahold. He's so funny! He pooped out after awhile and snuggled up next to me for some attention, until he got his second wind! When it was time, he went back to his room for me, like a good boy.

Oreo & Stuffs

This evening the boys both appeared when I got into the kitchen. I had noticed a little bird toy by the front door. Someone was having some fun! Stuffy sat by the end of the couch to watch as I got their dinner ready. Oreo was busy doing his usual thing. Haha. When I finished, Stuffy stood up and was ready to follow along to our spot. I think Oreo had wandered to the entryway. He came running from that direction when he heard me. The boys sat on either side of me for some attention. Oreo was in a little bit of a sassy mood today. I don't think he was sure what he wanted, whether to or not to be pet. Haha! He was content just sitting up against me and that was about it. Stuffy was enjoying some chin and tummy rubs. Oreo played with a couple of his toys, then wandered off to snack. When he returned, he laid next to me again and watched the window for some birds. He saw one at one point and raced over to get a closer look.

Gracie, Molly, Emma & the gang

This morning Emma was all excited when I walked in. I let her and Molly out quick to do their business. Gracie came out of her bed and waited in the kitchen, while I got them breakfast. Molly took a little bit, but then she finally worked on her food. The other two already had their bowls licked clean. I let the older gals outside for the rest of the time, while Gracie and I went for a walk. There was a greater chance for rain and storms today, so I decided to keep everyone inside. This afternoon, Gracie was hopping around when I came in. She sure doesn't get too excited when I come to visit... haha! I tried to get the other two outside. Emma went out one door, then when I opened the other to get Molly out,  Molly just stared at me and Emma came waltzing back in. Emma went in and out a couple times before Molly went outside. Silly ladies! I noticed someone had thrown up, so I started picking that up, while Molly and Emma were out. I heard some rustling in the front room and saw Smudge was getting comfy on the highest box she could find! Gracie was following me around, waiting patiently for her attention. Meanwhile, Henry was on the dining table batting my keys around. After the girls had plenty of time outdoors, Gracie and I went out for a bit. We played with her soccer ball for a little while, until she got bored playing "keep away".

Oreo & Stuffs

This evening Stuffy was the first one I saw when I walked in. He was sitting at the entrance to the office, and gave me a couple meows. Oreo was at the top of the stairs, making his way down to the kitchen. The boys were both in the living room waiting for me when I finished with their box. Oreo laid up next to me and Stuffy came over on the other side. Both boys enjoyed some pets and chin scratches. Oreo didn't stay long. He got up and wandered off to nibble and do whatever else he was up to. Stuffy was happy having my attention all to himself. He rolled to his side and purred away. Oreo eventually came back and laid by me again for a little while.

Gracie, Molly, Emma & the gang

This morning I tried to let Gracie out first, since I knew she would be quick and wanting back in for attention. Well she wanted to skip that and start with the attention! So, I let Molly and Emma out instead. I got them all their breakfast quick. Molly and Emma enjoyed a picnic breakfast on the patio. As soon as Gracie finished, I got her leashed up and ready to go. We took a nice long walk this morning! When we got back home I let the girls in so Gracie could get a potty break. When she was done, Molly and Emma went back out for the morning. The weather said 50% chance of rain... so that didn't really help me make a decision lol. I decided to let them have as much time as they could outside since it was nice at the moment, and if I needed I could come back and let them in. This afternoon it still hadn't rained yet, so the girls had good weather for the morning. I let them in, then Gracie and I went out back. After she did her business, she came and sat by me. I kept her company for awhile and pet her. Gracie had fun drinking from the hose when I got her some fresh water. I let her stay outside as I left. Later on, I noticed some dark clouds rolling in by my house, so I went on my way to go put Gracie inside. It was already raining by the time I got there. But, she was happy to come in! She was hiding out in her little igloo. As soon as she saw me she came running and got all excited. She's so funny! This evening Gracie and Emma both met me at the door. Gracie was bouncing around being all happy and silly. I saw someone had gotten into some mischief this afternoon! There was a chunk of clay, some crayons and markers out in the living room. Maybe Gracie was wanting to color a picture for mom. Hehe. I let Gracie out for a potty break before the next round of storms hit. She quickly did her thing. I fed all the ladies their dinners, then Molly and Emma took their turn outside. Gracie sat with me and kept wiggling around, walking under my legs, and just trying to get my undivided attention! Henry and Charlie were on the table wanting some of that too. I need more hands! Haha. I tried to pet everyone and keep them all satisfied. Gracie went out for one more potty break before bedtime.

Sadie, Zoie & Cole

This afternoon I let the pups out of their beds. I out Sadie out front and took Cole out back. He just sat on the patio, so I tried to coax him out. I carried him out to the grass a few times, but he didn't do anything. I guess he didn't have to go. Haha. I let him hang outside for a little while. He was enjoying laying on the patio and soaking up some sun. I went in to let Zoie out next. She made sure to gather her toys to leave by the door for her return. Sadie and Cole sat with me and enjoyed some attention. Everyone wanted tummy rubs today, even Zoie! Later this afternoon, Zoie met me in the laundry room. She had her toys along, of course! She bounced up and down, then gathered all three in her mouth as we made our way into the living room. Zoie and Cole went outside first for their turns. Cole spent quite awhile lounging on the patio again. I let Zoie inside and put Sadie out for a bit as well. Sadie was enjoying the nice weather outside and spent some time on the front porch, relaxing. This evening, all three pups met me in the laundry room. Sadie and Cole went out first. I took Cole out to the grass several times, but he just turned and cruised his way back to the patio. Zoie went out for her turn, and when she came in I let Cole in as well. We all visited for awhile. Sadie sat in front of me and snuck her cute little kisses in. Cole was being silly and hopping around. I bounced the tennis ball around for him and he had fun with that. Later, I took Cole out again and set him in the grass, and this time he finally went potty for me. I fed everyone their dinners and tucked them in for the night.
