83- Kind of a repeat of what I texted already--petitions brought in, Danny under bed, and Benny was wonderful in the car!

2012-02-13T21:19:00.003-06:00

195- Welcome home! And wouldn't you know it--it's going to start warming up! Zipper, Foxy, and Walker were all in their houses and dry when I got there tonight, but Boone was out and wet--those Labs just LOVE the elements, don't they? I realized after I left...I forgot to check the mail today. I put the food bowls in the houses, so the food wouldn't get soggy (except for Boone's since he went right to eating). (This pic is from a couple days ago--I didn't want to take my phone out in the rain.)

2012-02-11T21:37:00.004-06:00

135- Peppy looks ready to pop! Will the babies be safe, or will you have to relocate them temporarily from the big ones? Sweet Pea and Fred were waiting patiently inside(well, maybe Pea wasn't so patient)--it was (is) very cold...down in the 20s for tonight. Maggie was snuggled in "her" bedroom--she quite obviously owns that bed.

2012-02-11T21:25:00.003-06:00

195- Left you a voicemail at about 1:30 about the weather (although as you can see, it was sunny this morning! Sunny but very chilly already), then got your e-mail just as I finished the evening visit. But I had brought over lots of things for Zipper and Boone (but especially Zipper) to burrow down in and snuggle, and a second tarp for the outside. I emailed you. Jon and I talked after that, and he said he will be staying there tonight. So all is well.

2012-02-10T20:43:00.003-06:00

195- Foxy wanted to have a chase game this morning before going back into the kennel, but she finally relented and went back in, when she realized I wasn't going to chase her. Boone got a lot of frisbee time tonight.

2012-02-10T20:08:00.002-06:00

126- Everyone is behaving super good. I even got Kiwi to give me a new pose, instead of the same old, same old. And Beaux still won't hold still for a picture.

2012-02-09T20:59:00.002-06:00

146- Just had to share this video of little Pip (the Pipster!):

2012-02-09T20:54:00.002-06:00

195- Everything went great today! Boone and I played frisbee, Zipper took her meds, and Walker and Foxy got lots of attention. I didn't hang the bed from Zipper's kennel on the fence this morning, because it was still quite chilly and I thought she might want to snuggle into it. Misted the mushrooms too! As you can see from the picture, Zipper supervised the food preparartion :^)

2012-02-09T20:48:00.002-06:00

126- Kiwi and the dogs were just fine. It was a little chilly this morning, and I don't think Beaux really wanted to go out, but Lexie and Wookie went, so of course he ran after them.

2011-12-31T21:25:00.002-06:00

128- Welcome home! I look forward to meeting Tiger.

2011-12-31T21:18:00.003-06:00

188- Oh my, oh my. Thank goodness for leashes! That one corner of the fence, where there's a dip, with the chicken wire? I think it took Rusty 1/2 a second to get his head, neck, and half his back under there! But he was foiled by the leash I had a firm grip on. What a stinker! Pip was happy just running around, mostly in circles. Getting them back in the house was easy--but I could tell they were staying as far away from the pen as they could! Sometimes I wish I was back up north where they don't allow fireworks.

2011-12-31T21:13:00.002-06:00

192- Fluffy is behaving so well! Using her pads, eating well, staying where she's supposed to. Very happy to get outside and run around, too. Happy barks when I arrive!

2011-12-31T21:05:00.004-06:00

83- Well, as I said earlier, benny looked like he was having a wonderful time at his sleepover. Maya sounded great--no sniffles, no sneezing. That's such a good thing. Danny was a sweetie--as you said, he seems much less Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde now. Alas, maybe Coco turned him against all girl kitties, eh?

2011-12-31T21:01:00.002-06:00

135- Sweet Pea must be out visiting, taking advantage of the nice temperatures. Fred was home snoozing, as was Maggie. It's rare that I get a picture of Maggie, eh?

2011-12-31T20:54:00.003-06:00

74- Molly and Jack are doing good. Jack was making his purring sound, and then the tiniest, littelest squeaks. Molly of course asked for crackers, and when I didn't respond immediately, she said Kiss? Kiss? Very soft and sweet, but she wasn't fooling me!

2011-12-31T20:32:00.005-06:00

126- Lexie, Wookie, and Beaux are all doing well. Wookie REALLY wanted that last busy bone, but I just didn't think that would be fair to the others. Kiwi is good, didn't eat much today though. BTW- I couldn't help but notice the hot dog maker under the tree. My son gave hubby the same one for Christmas! I think I finally got a picture of Beaux standing still.

2011-12-30T22:42:00.003-06:00

74- Pictures are reruns--Jack was already trying to sleep when I arrived and I didn't want to disturb him. Molly was ready for a "cracker" though. But then, she always is!

2011-12-30T22:37:00.002-06:00

126- Wookie was cracking me up tonight. He had one of those busy bones, and was carrying it around growling. I think he's going to keep it forever. There was another one on the bed, I'm sure that was Beaux's because I know Lexie would have chewed hers up immediately.

2011-12-30T22:34:00.002-06:00

192- Found the dog food! YAY! Fluffy is doing really well with the potty pads and has totally settled into our routine. I'm very proud of her!

2011-12-30T22:29:00.002-06:00

135- Today was the first day Sweet Pea was not at home, but it was a beautiful day, so I wasn't surprised. Red Fred wanted to eat his food on the floor (in a bowl on the floor, that is) instead of up in his customary perch.

2011-12-30T22:01:00.005-06:00

128- Daisy and Sally are doing okay--seemed to be a little disconcerted both by the fireworks people are setting off, and the growly dog somewhere behind your house. They just wanted to do their business and get back inside. I am impressed that they haven't demolished the new little kitty toys!

2011-12-29T20:54:00.002-06:00

128- Good to see the girls again--and they both looked so spiffy with their bandanas and Daisy's new 'do. I sent you an e-mail also.

2011-12-29T20:47:00.002-06:00

188- Rusty and Pip are doing well, although Rusty is digging a lot. I think on New Years Eve I'll have to move them into the garage--folks here do a lot of fireworks on New Years Eve. Some have even started already.

2011-12-29T20:37:00.003-06:00

192- Sent you an e-mail. Fluffy is doing great--what a sweet, sweet girl. She just zooms around the backyard. Here's the video I took the first day after it finally stopped raining:

2011-12-29T20:31:00.003-06:00

135- All the kitties (and fish) are doing fine--and Sweet pea is even staying home. Maggie is always on your bed, and very affectionate. And...I haven't seen Red Fred and Sweet Pea being mean to each other even one time!

2011-12-24T22:26:00.002-06:00

188- Rusty and Pip- I forgot to take a picture of Rusty and Pip, because it was raining so steadily, and was going to go on all day and night, I moved them to the garage. Forgot all about the picture. But they seemed very relieved to be inside. That's quite a hole Rusty has going up against the house!

2011-12-24T22:21:00.002-06:00

169- The girls were all happy to GO out, but none wanted to STAY out for very long, since it's rained, rained, rained. Tiny was on the back porch, White Sox on the front.

2011-12-24T22:19:00.002-06:00

191- Bubba is such a friendly kitty! Just wanted to be loved on. His little lion toy was right by his food dish--I guess Bubba was sharing his dinner.

2011-12-24T22:15:00.002-06:00

92- Both boys were asleep when I arrived--Bobby on the leather couch, Snoopy on his bed. This weather makes us all want to curl up and sleep!

2011-12-24T22:12:00.002-06:00

192- Fluffy squeezed out again. I tried to block it really good today, but she's smart! I think she misses all of you.

2011-12-24T22:07:00.003-06:00

112- Another successful day with Murphy, and he was a lot calmer afterward today. Liked that tuna--I'm not sure he left any for the others! But everybody came out to eat--I had an audience while I was getting things ready.

2011-12-24T21:58:00.004-06:00

142- Meyoshi was very interested in my phone/camera--can you tell? All is well.

2011-12-24T21:54:00.003-06:00

185- Gris was very happy today, and again ate his Lysine right up. I hid some of the other treats around the house, so he could have a few surprises during the day.

2011-12-24T21:49:00.003-06:00

135- Everyone was home again today--it was not a nice day, weather-wise. Maggie was asleep on your bed, I brought her some treats.

2011-12-24T21:39:00.002-06:00

153- All is well, no deliveries lately. Very rainy, and pretty chilly. Maybe Bruin will use his cabin tonight.

2011-12-24T21:32:00.002-06:00

193- Bubby made me laugh tonight after our walk. (During which he cried--I don't think he liked the rain). When we got back home, he raced up the stairs, then back down, then turned to look at me and hopped his butt up the stairs, backwards! What a goof!

2011-12-23T23:53:00.004-06:00

112- As I said in the text, things went fine with Murphy, and I'll be happy to show you how I did it. But that stuff must taste really bad! Every one else enjoyed watching his post-medicine antics!

2011-12-23T23:49:00.002-06:00

111- Marshmallow wasn't quite sure about trusting me, so Moe had extra time to eat before she decided to join in. This is as close as she'd let me get with the camera, though.

2011-12-23T23:47:00.002-06:00

92- Snoopy was in a no eat mood again, but frisky. The guys had the water turned off, but I used some of the bottled water in the fridge.

2011-12-23T23:43:00.002-06:00

192- Fluffy met me at the door, she had pushed the gate aside. But she was good! Funny little noises she makes when she's happy!

2011-12-23T23:40:00.002-06:00

185- Gris was eager to eat his Lysine treats today, that was a little bit of a change. Good to see him again...is he a little heavier?

2011-12-23T23:27:00.003-06:00

135- All the kitties were home, and ate. Fed fish too. Sorry I couldn't help with the package today, but I'll take care of it tomorrow.

2011-12-23T23:24:00.002-06:00

153- The girls are pretty calm, but Dumas, oh Dumas! He races up and down the hallway, and he got the lid off the Pounce treats! I put it in your cabinet over the coffee maker.

2011-12-23T23:20:00.003-06:00

193- Forgot to take a new picture today. But Bubby and I are are having a good time--he's a very playful pup!

2011-12-22T21:53:00.002-06:00

193- Bubby and I got along just peachy! He was excited to see me, happy to go on his walk, and then we played a while upstairs. He liked getting his tummy rubbed.

2011-12-22T21:48:00.002-06:00

92- Snoopy wasn't interested in eating today. I don't think he liked the rain we had last night, he didn't want to go out at all. Bobby was feeling fine though. The workers have been at your house several days running now.

2011-12-22T21:39:00.004-06:00

112- Well, I had myself psyched up to give Murphy his meds, and then I read your note--now I have to get psyched up tomorrow! Molly was sleeping in the closet upstairs and didn't come down until right before I left. YOur note said you were leaving the garage open, but it was closed--and pretty cold out there, so I left it closed. Let me know if you want me to open it.

2011-12-22T21:34:00.002-06:00

192- Fluffy wasn't eating much of her food, and I couldn't find any fresh food, so I brought some over. She ate right away. Sometimes they do that--I guess it's their way of pouting! I did forget to take a picture though, so I had to use a re-run.

2011-12-22T21:18:00.002-06:00

153- Kitties are all doing well--I think Dumas especially misses the kids--he wants to play! Bruin is always waiting with his head out under the gate. I keep trying to get that picture, but he always gets up as I approach.

2011-12-21T21:01:00.002-06:00

92- The boys are drinking a lot of water--maybe the dust from the remodeling makes their throat dry. They are doing GREAT!

2011-12-21T20:56:00.003-06:00

192- Fluffy is being really, really good. We played some outside today--she runs a lot faster than I do!

2011-12-21T20:52:00.002-06:00

77- Einstein peeped out tonight before I left, and Espinoso huffed at me. Velcro enjoyed some cashews.

2011-12-21T20:48:00.002-06:00

153- Bruin, Clarabelle and Annie are all doing very well. It's kind of funny, the "dent" in the food is always in the exact same place, seems they all eat from the same spot in the bowl.

2011-12-21T20:37:00.002-06:00

146- Pip is meeting me at the door every visit--she wants to get her tummy rub before I let the big boys out.

2011-12-20T21:17:00.003-06:00

77- Velcro is being quite well-behaved and in a very good mood. Espinoso and Einstein are usually sleeping soundly when I arrive, but Princess pops her head out to say hello. Velcro pretended he wanted a drink this morning, but all he wanted was an audience to serenade. Video below:

2011-12-20T21:11:00.003-06:00

153- Hope you got my e-mail. Another package arrived today, put it in the same place. Tonight, Dumas and Clarabell were sleeping on the couch back, Annie curled up in the pillows of your bed--she's almost hidden there. Bruin was snoozing on the patio, probably not quite cold enough for him to move into his dog house yet.

2011-12-20T21:05:00.002-06:00

146- Pip was unusually sociable tonight. I think she was angling for extra treats. Tiny ate a lot, and Socks ate a good bit. Tiny discovered I keep treats in my jacket pocket.

2011-12-20T20:52:00.002-06:00

92- The boys are doing GREAT! Snoopy is always lively and wants to play, although he frequently mistakes my fingers for his chicken jerky, poor baby. He's eating well most days. Bobby just loves tolay on the couch and get pet--and finish whatever food Snoopy leaves.

2011-12-20T20:45:00.002-06:00

192- Fluffy was still behind the gate, and seemed quite content. No accidents! She's such a good, sweet girl.

2011-11-25T21:33:00.002-06:00

185- Gris was more interested in his real food today than he was his treats. What's up with that????

2011-11-25T21:29:00.002-06:00

145- I can hardly believe it--two days in a row Harley has finished her food before Dale finished his!

2011-11-25T21:25:00.002-06:00

184- Poor Luna makes me feel so guilty! Sasha and the rest of the gang are all very happy. No eggs though.

2011-11-25T21:21:00.003-06:00

188- Rusty and Pip are doing well, but I think they are ready for you to come home. If it's rumbly tomorrow morning, I'll bring them in.

2011-11-25T20:58:00.002-06:00

190- Cricket and I are getting along famously! She ate REALLY well today and struts her stuff on our walks.

2011-11-25T20:55:00.002-06:00

128- The girls are being really good--Sally's facial expressions crack me up. As you can see, they are both eating well!

2011-11-25T20:51:00.002-06:00

126- Beaux is one smart little boy. When it comes time for treats, he runs along the top back of the couch to make sure he gets his without having to contend with Lexie and Wookie!

2011-11-25T20:45:00.003-06:00

74- Jack and Molly are hanging in there. Jack poses for head scratches all the time, and Molly is talking up a storm. They do dueling whistles!

2011-11-25T20:40:00.002-06:00

135- Red Fred made me laugh today--he finished his bowl of food, then leaned over to look at Sweet Peas bowl (she wasn't eating) then stepped down and ate some of hers too.

2011-11-25T20:34:00.002-06:00

186- Welcome home!

2011-11-23T23:12:00.002-06:00

184- I didn't see Luna, but Sasha was right there barking at my new car. But then she realized it was me (after a few sniffs) and all was good. No eggs, and Noodles, Raisin and Oatmeal were all snoozing.

2011-11-23T23:06:00.002-06:00

145- Dale and Harley tried to tell me they needed dinner, but I told them I KNEW they had already eaten. So they had to settle for a bedtime snack. Harley's picture came out too blurry to post.

2011-11-23T23:01:00.003-06:00

128- The girls were very happy tonight! Sally even ate her food slowley--and Daisy ate every bit of hers, not a morsel was left.

2011-11-23T22:56:00.003-06:00

126- Kiwi was sleeping when I arrived, and I think the dogs were also. Beaux got a little vocal (unusual for him) and everyone had a good time outside. I moved the potted plant in the kitchen though--they had tipped it. Everyone was moving very fast--that black blur is Beaux and the white blur is Lexie, Wookie only stopped for a second!

2011-11-23T22:48:00.005-06:00

188- Rusty took his harness off (or maybe Pip took it off for him!) so I had to put it back on. They're doing just fine, and I'm so happy Pip lets me pet her now.

2011-11-23T22:43:00.006-06:00

135- Cans up, fountain off. Red Fred and Sweet Pea were both inside this morning--it was still a little chilly and foggy. The big yellow fish had his head WAY up out of the water when I walked by, like he was watching me!

2011-11-23T22:36:00.003-06:00

185- Gris must have been sleeping hard this morning, I was in the house for several minutes before he came out to see me. Took some coaxing to get him to eat his meds--he was holding out for the "good stuff"!

2011-11-23T22:32:00.004-06:00

74- Molly and Jack are doing really well. Jack was extremely animated and vocal tonight; Molly was pretty feisty.

2011-11-05T21:08:00.002-05:00

111- Moe is looking forward to your return tomorrow. But I have been pleasantly surprised--he hasn't tried to get out, or acted frustrated at all. He's a peach! And today I noticed--he hardly sheds at all! All the kitties like my shoes for some reason.

2011-11-05T21:05:00.002-05:00

187- Well, started out like yesterday--lots of barking and running. But the instant I sat down on the couch, Peaches jumped up to cuddle, and Allie came searching for treats. Breakthrough! Taffy ate a LOT, I was so surprised. Got around well too.

2011-11-05T20:56:00.004-05:00

185- Gris was very vocal today, running around "Mew, mew, mew!" I'm not sure what he was trying to tell me. He's still fascinated by my shoes, as you can see in the video below.

2011-11-05T20:50:00.001-05:00

166- Welcome home!

2011-11-04T21:59:00.002-05:00

187- Well, Taffy was sleeping soundly in her crate when I left. Peaches and Allie did lots of barking!

2011-11-04T21:52:00.003-05:00

188- Pip was still a little leery of me, but I could tell she wanted to trust me. We'll get there. Rusty, of course, was very friendly. I couldn't find the treats on the patio, though?

2011-11-04T21:38:00.003-05:00

111- Moe is behaving VERY well--better than I expected, having to stay inside. What a great cat to cuddle with--I wish I could have figured out how to turn the TV on--we could have watched a movie and got more brushing done! (He does a good job on his own--see below)

2011-11-04T21:30:00.003-05:00

185- Sorry I had to call you. And sorry I got there later than I planned-- I had a canine jail break at another client's house and had to do some rounding up and some fence fixin'. Gris came right out once the house was quiet again, and got up close and personal with my iPhone.

2011-11-04T21:27:00.002-05:00

166- GiGi was feeling pretty spunky tonight, she seemed to be smiling the whole time. Jacques was a little snuggly, once he got settled.

2011-11-04T21:20:00.003-05:00

134- Welcome home! Glad everyone was there to greet you. Bubba did a number on the fence, eh?

2011-11-02T22:51:00.003-05:00

111- Moe and I sat together for a long time. He got hugged, and loved, and brushed--sat on my lap "making bread". He keeps asking for some canned food, though! I couldn't get the TV-- as good as I am at some techie things, TV remotes always get the best of me. I got a little bit of video (below) of his rolling around that he loves to do.

2011-11-02T22:45:00.002-05:00

166- Jacques and GiGi are doing very well, although GiGi doesn't want to sit in the den with us at all--as soon as we get in, she goes to her crate. She has been eating well, though. Jacques and I played ball for awhile today.

2011-11-02T22:30:00.011-05:00

134- Rusty and I made friends quickly--yay! First visit he licked my fingers, second visit I could scratch his head, and tonight he let me pet him all over. What a handsome guy. Bubba, Buddy and Sissy are friendly and spunky as ever, and even Lil Mama stayed on the porch with me there.

2011-10-19T21:08:00.003-05:00

83- Told you everything already, sooooo...hope you enjoy the pics.

2011-10-17T21:14:00.008-05:00

126- Your house looks so great, all decorated! Especially love the severed hands on the computer keyboard. Fortunately for me, all your babies are loveable and friendly, not scary. All are doing well, Kiwi looks a little darker than normal. Molting?

2011-09-25T22:28:00.007-05:00

186- Lot of musical activity at the home across the drive tonight. I had a little trouble getting the key out of the lock, but no trouble with any of the pets.

2011-09-25T22:23:00.003-05:00

146- Everybody is doing great. Tiny ate a bunch of food, while Socks waited patiently for him to finish. Pip got a tummy rub.

2011-09-24T22:08:00.002-05:00

161- Zeke is looking really good! His coat is so shiny. Tonight he spent a lot of time sniffing, sniffing, sniffing. I had tp coax him away from the fence (where the white dog lives)--something really had his attention there.

2011-09-24T22:05:00.003-05:00

111- Tiger was asleep in his bed under the workbench this morning, and sitting in your neighbor's driveway tonight. Moe was EVERYWHERE! I forgot to say a box was delivered yesterday.

161- Zeke barked at my new car, but wiggled when he heard my voice. He was very happy--I think he like the cooler weather...and who can blame him!

111- Saw both boys, and Tiger ate a good bit (after he went and sniffed my new car). I actually think he ate as much cat food as he did steak--I think he likes the Fancy Feast! Moe meowed and rolled, rolled and meowed.

185- Poor Gris--construction on one side (hammers banging away) and destruction on the other side (the woodchipper grinding away). I thought about "Does he need an anti-anxiety dose?" but he seemed more interested than worried about it. He did take some time to play and munch.

97- I was surprised to see Kate out in the paddock, but she sure seemed happy. Almost as happy as the pups--who are perpetually happy. Jet was carrying around a beggin' strip--must have had it all day! Marcie and Mittens were very excited over their dinner, as usual.
