12/31pm:dignan: i was the most engergized of the group tonight, i chased a bug &barked at the sitter &chased her around. the other 2 mostly watched

Katie: i found 2 glorious sticks in the yard that i thought should be part of the decor. The sitter didn't think so though and put them both back outside.

Neeko: Holy cow! What a beautiful night. We had almost forgotten how much fun it is to actually play outside! We didn't really like the fireworks though.

It was nice to see the sitter again even though it hadn't bee that long since last time i missed her. We spooned for a bit before food & meds time.

12/31.Wiley:I pulled a bit today. I had all of this extra energy brewing in my body and felt like the sitter and I should quicken our pace. Feel the burn!

Sanchez: i had the best hiding spot ever. The sitter must have looked in the closet a gillion times before she realized i wasn't a stack of clothes. I got her!

12/31.Dolce:Hey sitter! Watch me leap across the room over the couches and land on scratch tower. From here I will keep an eye watching. Come pet me.

12/31.Basha&Trixie:The sitter got here to refill my food bowl just as I was eating the last of yesterdays. How conveinient! I think i'm going to take a nap now.

Katie: i'm not feeling to social today. I stayed under the bed while the sitter was here. Hopefully sciafu and rocky will save some grub for me!

Timber: we were snoozing when the sitter pulled up but once that door opened we were wide awake and ready to eat. Even lucy was hungry this morning.

Sydney: it didn't bother us that it was rainy this morning we were ready to go out with the sitter. At least for a minute then we were ready to come back in!

Katie: Oh good the sitter is back. I'm really hungry and by the looks of it so was everyone else. Plus we all needed some cuddles which we got in abundance.

Neeko: yay! The sitter is back for another visit. We were so excited to see her we were dancing by the door. Don't tell her but we really just wanted a carrot.

12/30.Guido&Gringo:I was super hyper tonight while Gringo was chill and calm. I jumped and danced all over and when we got outside I ran and ran. Feels great!

After our walk, how about you give me a bellyrub! You can tell I like it by the big smile on my face!
-Kenai


The sitter was nice enough to search for me so he could give me some treats! Yum! Thank you!
-Celeste

The sitter brought me a few new toys! I almost have enough now! Purr! -Kika

Nina: we couldn't decide which flavor of dinner we like best so we just shared. It worked out quite well if i do say so myself. :)

12/30.Bunny:The sitter cleaned out my cage and changed my bedding. It feels so soft and fluffy! Just like me!

Snowflake: discovered in yet another new hiding spot! Even though i wasn't over joyed that the sitter found me i was glad to get a refill on my water bowl.

12/30.Wiley:I was poking through the dirt today looking for secret treasures. I wasn't completely sure what kind, but I was hoping for something edible.

12/30.Trixie&Basha:I was on top of the fridge when the sitter got here so of course I begged to get onto his shoulders. I feel so supreme up there!

Katie: we were all waiting by the window for the sitter when she arrived. Before our breakfast she took us all outside and we had a great time.

12-29 Rocky I had so much fun chasing the red dot! I was really hungry so I took a break to eat some lunch:)

Sydney: we were in play mode this morning and breakfast gave us even more energy for running around the yard. We had sooooo much fun!

Abby: After a long day of keeping watch by the door i was glad to see the sitter so i could tke a break and grab a bite to eat.

Neeko: so we might've destroyed a toy today but the sitter cleaned it all up for us. Then she gave us lots of cuddles that we enjoyed very much. :)

12/29.Guido&Gringo:Oops! We had an accident in the kitchen. The sitter used the magic spray to make it go away. Then Gringo and I fought over the sitter's lap.

Daisy: i decided to break free tonight. No fence can hold me in :) the sitter was really glad to see me once i reappeared.

12-28 Daisy We didn't see my ball in the yard so I decided fetching a pine cone would be a good substitute..and it was!

12-28 Katie I almost went out on the porch with the others but ran back to the warm bed as soon as I realized how cold it is out there!

12-29 Marcelle I decided to supervise the sitter & Mina clean the litter boxes, then I tested the boxes..the girls did a great job:)

12-28 Bean We were so excited about going on a walk this morning I couldn't stop talking or sit still! Afterwards we were tired..naptime!

12/29.Wiley:A nice brisk walk, so cold and refreshing like a gulp of fresh water. The sitter tried to stay in the warm sunlight as much as possible. Felt good.

12/29.Bunny:The sitter came and gave me pellets and hay. Mmm... I'm going to crunch and munch all day. Starting... NOW!

12/29.Basha&Trixie:I came out for some lunch and ended up getting a nice backscratch. Of course I also had to listen to Trixie mew my ears off for a little.

Belle: today is perfect walking weather. We snaked our way thru the neighborhood and had an excellent time.

Timber: oh goody breakfast! We were all pretty hungry except for lucy. We were all thirsty even more than that. Water sooooo good.

Sydney: We were so happy to see the sitter even before she came in we were super excited. She convinced us to go out for a bit but we thought it was too cold.

Lucy: we weren't sure who this person coming into our house was @ 1st but then we recognized her from earlier 2day. She gave us some dinner & it was all good.

12/28.Gringo&Guido:It feels so nice to be back inside where it's warm. Guido and I were shivering outside. But the relief was totally worth it. I went twice!

I was asleep the whole time the sitter was here today! I woke up right before he left so I could get a little petting! -Macy

The sitter noticed that I'm much more friendly now that he feeds me instead of my automatic feeder! -Nina

We played fetch with our bone tonight and I would always get to it first but then Jack steals it and acts like he got it first! The sitter saw it! -Bella

Neeko: burr it feels like winter out finally. I don't know how much i like it. After we took care of business it was straight back inside for us.

12/28.Calico,Calin&Cody:The servant stopped by to feed me and my fellow felines. I insisted he pet me and add fish oil to my dinner. He did everything I said!

Daisy: Its getting chilly out tonight so to keep warm we chased each other around the yard. It was soooo much fun!

12/28.Bunny:The life of a bunny is simple and quiet, if it was a bad day just sit down and try it. Life will be such a treat, just take a breath and have a seat

I couldn't wait for breakfast this morning so i helped myself to some grub right out of the bag. When the sitter got here she filled my bowl anyway. :) mei mei

I was snoozing when the sitter came by. It took a couple of treats before i got of the sofa and went outside. It was chilly bit we made the best of it. :) tank

When the sitter got here me & tattoo were waiting to say hello. It was pretty cold outside so i didn't mind waiting inside while they went out. mama

12/19 Socks: We were so happy to play when the sitter got here today. Had a vigorous game of laser tag and then dinner. Yum!

12/19 Dharma: I left a mess on the rug over in the living room because I was so upset about being left alone. Perhaps mischeif isnt the best way to getattention

Yay! I was so excited to see the sitter again! Even all the cats made an appearance. We had a blast playing with the ball now its time to relax! roxie

Thank goodness the rain let up. I waasn't looking forward to getting all wet. Instead it was a lovely night for a stroll with a new friend. silo

12/18.Mattie:Hooray! Puddles! The sitter tried to keep me dry but I'm a free spirit. I need the wind in my face and rain on my back. And a nice towel dry later!

12/18.Thea:Rain rain go away! I want to enjoy my walk today! The sitter had a coat so he held the umbrella over me. We were practically swimming though.

12/18.Moo&Chew:We had a lot to say to the sitter when he came in. Once he catered to all of our needs we got to cuddle and get scratches. Talking turned to purr

12/18.Abraham:Mmm... Time to crunch away! The sitter is here. He tried to play with me but I was more into the head scratches than chasing a toy around.

12/18.Colbie:I am a soggy doggy! Even in my raincoat! I was running so fast and it was so wet outside. I thought I was going to hydroplane! Wet hugs for all!

Today was such a perfect day for a walk! I was so excited to get outside that I got a little wild and couldn't help but randomly start running in circles with a big smile on my face! -Mattie

12/15.Wiley:What perfect day for a walk to the park! Its sunny, its warm, I can do my business in comfort instead of shivering while in squat mode.

I was quite surprised to see a new sitter today. Then i recognized her and remembered all the fun we had last time she was here! Good times. thor

12/14 Zeus: we were all starved from an afternoon of tom foolery and relaxation. Now time for some kitty dreams.

12/14.Tank:I was extra fast and extra determined to have a great walk with the sitter today. So I got an extra treat when I got back!

12/14 Pixel: we went out into the humid day to romp and ay. There weren't very many other people our so we made our own parade.

December 12-13, 2009

12/13 Thor: It was a lazy afternoon for all of us today.. I think it is this dreary weather!

12/13 Maggie: hooray food! I am so hungry I could not wait one second to eat this morning.

12/12 Lucy: yummm food! After a long day of adventuring, I worked up an appetite.. But I am not one to rush a meal.

12/12 Midnight: its a cold wintery day outside, but I am staying nice and snuggly on the wonderful fluffy carpets!

12/12 AM Lucy; I meowed at the door until the sitter let me outside to play. She tried to convince me to stay in because of the cold weather but I ran out anywy

12/11.Lucy:Brrr! It was getting cold out there! Mr. Sitter let me in and served me a delicious dinner while I warmed up my paws. I almost froze my whiskers off!

12/11.Simi,Charlie&Isis:I claimed the bed tonight. I rolled all over it and stretched out so Charlie and Isis knew who's zone this is. Sweet feline dreams...

12/11.Lucy,Rutledge&Roscoe:There were so many police cars and firetrucks today! They made Roscoe a bit skittish. But us little dogs were calm and cool.

12/11.Colbie:I, Colbie the magnificent athelete have returned triumphant again. I hurtled around every corner and leapt over every crack in the sidewalk!

12/10.Isis,Charlie&Simi:We were all out and about when the sitter came by. Charlie and Simi went to cuddle but I stayed and watched the sitter. Dibs on dinner!

12/9.Rutledge,Roscoe&Lucy:We were very good about getting our harnesses on. During the walk it got really windy so we all walked around Lucy to protect her.

12/9.Wiley:Wow! Another day of summer! Just what I wanted for my walk. The sitter took me right through the park. It was perfect!

12/8.Tank:I walked a bit this afternoon. But it was cold and damp outside and not very fun. I just wanted to curl up and nap the whole way back.

12/8.Roscoe,Lucy&Rutledge:It started raining on our walk. Cold rain. Brrr... But we warmed up because we were practically power doggy walking.

12/8.Wiley:Another grey day for walking. I looked all over for a special stick to carry with me. But none of the ones I found had that feel to them.

12/7.Lucy,Roscoe&Rutledge:We had a great walk today, met all sorts of people and fellow canines on our adventure. Roscoe was super energetic and pulled us along

12/2.Lucy,Rutledge&Roscoe:It was one of those days. We spent time running around and playing with the sitter. But we all just felt like cuddling and napping.

12/2.Wiley:Wet? Humid? In december? It was so gross in the park. The ground was all sloshy and muddy. Hopefully the sun will pop out and fix this.

12/1.Rutledge,Lucy&Roscoe:Its cold, but nowhere near cold enough! We ran around so much its hard to notice. The sitter chased Roscoe and me around with Lucy!
