What did your pet(s) do today?

[cinnamongrrl]

Eleanor scared the bleep out of me..

I was getting dressed for bed and just happened to look down in time to see a skinny grey leg poke out from under the bed. She was aiming to touch my foot...

I had no idea she was asleep under my bed...omg if she had touched my foot without my seeing it was her I would've been out the door without touching the floor....

Yes. I'm still scared of the under the bed monster...irrational and yet.. Is it really?

she shoved a poor whats left of a monkey at me until I hurled it across the house for her. .... this was AFTER back yard fetch was over.... she sure is fetch happy.....

Kitty Diva attempted to break into a new bag of dog food that was temporarily sitting on the kitchen floor. She was trying to show me that I needed to fill her bowl with kitty food. I got the message.

Tiny Dog almost escaped out the kitchen door! It happens about once a year, usually in spring. Fortunately I caught her by trapping her between my legs and the wall, which she did not like at all. Hopefully she is now over these escape attempts, for this year at least.

My dog thinks you would have held on to that ball if you really wanted it, and since you threw it across the room you must be rejecting it, and the last thing she would think to do is bring it back!

The oldest kitty does not feel well seems her allergies have turned into a sinus infection. I give her the allergy meds and put her in a steamy bathroom on the advice of a friend but she hated it. She has an appointment with the veterinarian Thursday but I may take her tomarrow.

The baby kitty is keeping an eye on her friend.

after we played fetch it was really warm out so she came in, i jumped in the shower and when I got out i could not find her anywhere. I looked in the back yard, in ever spot that she usually goes in. I started yelling her name, she pops up and comes running, from the couch right in front of me! WHEW she scared me

Little Bits had a ball last night when she went out to do her thing, Rowdy tagged along so out they went. After a while hear comes the wild bunch , Rowdy dry as can be...the Bits must have found a deep place in the yard cause she went swimming some how as she was soaking wet wild hair and all.

One goofy goat cracked me up as she scratched her belly on the downed tree trunk...wiggling around until she hit the right spot.
Her sister got her head stuck AGAIN in the fence, then cried at me when I got her unstuck...
The other sister jumped around like she had a belly full of jumping beans or a gallon full of fermented honeysuckle wine.

My ever loving fluff ball pup cuddled up tight to me after I got home from the doctor's, and we took a long nap. He knows when I need cuddles the most.

The two resident pet chickens tried to cuddle up to the cat and take a sun bath.

And the baby turtle hissed at me when I tried to warm up her new habitat.

Today Monte bit two great big chunks out of two jumbo avocados. When I came home I had a lot of heavy bags so I set some of them on the washing machine. I saw him but I had no idea he'd be up there playing Count Dracula with the fruit because seriously what kind of cat does that? Hello Mr. Obligate Carnivore! The vet said the avocado wouldn’t hurt him and since he hadn’t eaten any of the produce bag only punctured holes in it to just keep an eye on him. Up until today I thought he was a pretty good cat but anymore I can’t with any honest certainty swear to it because well if he’d do that what wouldn’t he think to maybe do/eat next?

One of my cats tried to scare me by not presenting himself as usual this morning. Apparently he was just trying to prank me as he suddenly appeared in the middle of the stairs and tried to trip me. The others are in various stages of lounging and not bothering to get up and watching the birds at the bird feeder.

My toe male Bostons got in a tussle and the bigger one bit his little brother's lip. I have no clue what brought that on as I was standing right there?

One goofy goat jumped a 4 foot high fence (where I had them "mowing the lawn") to help herself to the wild blackberry bushes and briars....then decided to play "catch me if you can", when I approached her with the leash.

She's a slippery little fart when she doesn't want caught...but I outsmarted her by "driving" her towards the larger pen and locked the gate as she trotted inside, thinking she had won this catch-me game. When she discovered I had locked her gate, she was not a happy camper!! She started crying for her sisters, which made both sisters (still in the other pen) cry hard for her and try frantically to jump their way out.

They are triplets and hate to be more than 5 feet away from each other.

The boys hiked Craggy Pinnacle with me today on the parkway.

When we got to the top, Yoda stood on his back legs and took in the view like everyone else. It was funny to see.

A storm came up and Jacques got shivery cold. The temperature was about 10°colder up there anyhow with the elevation. He hid out in my jacket for a while til I realized I couldn't make the steep climb down with him tucked in there lol

On the way home we saw a bear and her cub cross the parkway. Yoda was supposedly a bear dog in his former farm life. He did sniff the air and take a particular interest.

Ohh and he got testy with a dog on the trail that he perceived as threatening to Jacques when all the poor pup wanted was to play...he's SO protective of his little brother

Before I went to bed I ask the fur kids did you ne to go potty? Nope they said, then I knew I was going regret not taking them out anyway. so low and behold it is 4:30 in the a. m. they bounced on me to...let is out,let us out we gotta go. So now I am waiting on them to come in. O.K. kids it's time to come in.

My favorite goofy little goat loved the peanut butter cookies I shared with her...she "tried" the oatmeal cookies, but wanted more peanut butter...then when I offered her a shortbread cookie, she crumbled it up and spit it out.
She is proof that goats do NOT eat everything. I've never seen such a picky goat. And get this....she doesn't take a peanut butter cookie if I twist it open to let her taste the filling. She sniffs at it but won't take it.
Goofy goat

I just caught the baby kitty sticking her paw in my glass of tea and drinking it. I have seen her do that with my cocktails too. I guess we share drinks. I am not sure that I approve of this. Haha!

My cats are more blatant about helping themselves, they just stick their faces into my water and help themselves. They don't leave "surprises" for me so it's all good.

Several of my girls are inside soaking up the air conditioner coolness, Bella however will NOT come in unless there is a rain storm. The others know what a storm front looks like so they are ready to come in before the onslaught. Savannah is the Princess, likes being cool all afternoon, she is quite the expert table clearer upper. Oh ya.... don't get me started.

The Goobers are not amused by summer weather, unless they spot a squirrel. Sophie is an expert foot traffic blocker, but Tater is a sofa hogger, not ever under foot, just under butt, gotta look before sitting down.
