I woke up with Diva Kitty under my armpit. She did not want to leave my side all day. She was, however, uninterested in Thanksgiving tidbits.

Tiny Dog was very, very happy to get some little bits of turkey. We also sat on the couch and watched the 2012 National Dog Show.

Diva Kitty was also uninterested in the dog show.

It is still pretty quiet here, the baby kitty is napping in grandmother's rocker and the kitten is snoozing on my lap.

The kitten found a spider the size of a half dollar in the house and was playing with it but when I saw the spider fight back I put it outside. Ugh.

:spider:

Made a cat cave out of the good sleeping bag again. But he let me have the ratty one with the stuffing trying to fall out ever since it was machine washed and got caught up in the agitator. Monte apparently believes it's nice to share with humans – occasionally.

Tiny Dog is disconcerted about having to do walkies on a 6 foot lead. Normally, we walk wherever, and then I let her roam around on a 16-foot Flexilead and let her decide where to potty - but the Flexilead finally got too knotted to unwind. Tiny isn't used to being so close to me when she goes.

A new Flexilead will be arriving from Amazon tomorrow. It's a newer 26-foot version. Boy, will she be surprised!

Oh, I forgot to give an update on my favorite 3 dogs and Ms Petunia (the caT):

When I arrived at my BFF's home yesterday, Simon (Jack Russell) began to howl his words in such a sad, happy way, lol. He gets very talkative around me, when he hasn't seen me for a spell.

Toffee, the blind Blue Healer Lab mix, she gets jealous when Simon wants all the attention, so after I got settled into the big easy living room rocking chair, Toffee got up on the arm of the chair to 'rule the roost".....So I rocked in the chair and sang sweet lullabyes to her, and she just lapped up all the special attention I gave to her. She was so happy, that she never even went into a fit of barking when anyone came to the front door and rang the doorbell. This was such a huge sign in her behavior that everyone came out to the living room to see why Toffee wasn't up to her usual "I'll bark til your ears fall off!" LOL

Buttons, the tiny miniature poodle mix? Oh,,,,, he didn't pull any fast moves on anybody but just stayed on the sofa.....I'll guess before I got there, Buttons was a very bad dawg. :(
But I gave Buttons a treat for not peeing on Simon and biting Toffee in the neck.

Ms Petunia???

She's my baby girl, she sure is. After the dogs went outside for a spell, she came out of her hiding place and raced up to my lap to say, 'Hello', then she promptly stretched out on my legs and rolled over onto her back, for a long tummy rub. After a while, she got up and crawled up to kiss me on the nose.

:balloon:

We got the new flexi lead today and tiny dog was so happy to go out and have room to walk around. One thing I didn't consider in advance, I have to keep her reeled in somewhat until she is done with her business. The 26-foot lead gives her so much more room to roam around then the old 16 foot lead did, that it takes her longer to make up her mind where to go. There are so many more things to smell with a 52 foot diameter

Great about the new flex leash, Georgia Ma'am!

About my babies ...

Big Drama!

Yesterday about 5:00 a.m., I was sitting in a chair next to the bed reading online news. All 3 of my dogs were sound asleep on the bed. Suddenly, young Jeffrey fell off the bed. This boy is so lanky with the longest legs I have ever seen. When he hit the carpet, he was terribly frightened and began thrashing and kicking very hard. I rushed to him, got down on my knees to comfort him. I also had to grab the lamp thinking it would soon join Jeffrey on the floor too. His kicks were vibrating this little nightstand table I built.

Thankfully he had no injuries. This is the 4th time he has fallen off the bed. I sat with him a few minutes to get him calmed down and assured that he was okay, all the while stifling a giggle. He crawled back on the bed. I had to go to the kitchen and laugh like all hell.
:)

He proved me wrong about his being a sorry excuse for a bug/mouse/lizard catcher.

When I came home for lunch he was sitting in the middle of the living room making an odd meowing sound, and I noticed something under his paw. A lizard. This was the second one to find its way inside in a couple of weeks. The first, I woke one morning to find its little silhouette inside my bedroom curtains. 😳

Anyway, kitty kept lifting his paw up and letting it run around so he could chase it and then catch it under his paw again. He held the intruder down until I was able to catch and release it outside using a plastic cup. Teamwork.

The lizard didn’t seem to be injured. Hopefully he will tell all of his little buddies to keep out!

Our semi feral cat, Max, returned home after disappearing for two days.

The appointment for his neutering has been made. Hopefully he will wander less and stop freaking me out.

Our Jinx threw up all over the kitchen. It had a little piece of plastic in it and I sm sooooo glad it came up!!! Both my butch and I were sleeping so we wouldn't have known if he were in big trouble choking. So thankful.

My new cat, I adopted her on Thursday, has already discovered that she can hang out on the edge of the tub, between my shower curtain and the clear liner, and watch me the whole time. Not sure how I feel about that.

My cocker spaniel
 

Always in the morning hours just sits at the sliding glass door admiring the squirrels!

The kitties have loved having me home for so many days in a row. They have both showed off by running fast, chasing their toys, and jumping very high. It has been a kitty disco party. Haha!
