You know when you want to explore the big yard like your brother but it’s scary. Then you can’t figure out how to get back into the pup pen so your My Margret shows you. Then you’ve gotten yourself so fussed up that you are hot and panting so your My Greg fixes up a quiet place in the house with a nice breeze so you can calm down and cool off. Later you’re still tired but feeling better and you move into the dining room with the big cat tower and just sprawl on the top platform while your brother keeps an eye on you? Yeah all of that! ~ Graham Kitty
My Margret says I’m a determined little dog. She’s right and I know if I stare hard enough at the treat basket it will fall to the floor and I can eat all I want! ~ Scruffy Pup
I’m sleeping off my latest adventure. Last night I snuck out and climbed the tree after it was dark. I startled a big bird who couldn’t get away from me fast enough and made a lot of noise. I’m a brave Kitty but I admit loud noises scare me a lot. When My Margret came out to look at me I was too fussed up to follow her voice and climb down.
She knows the best thing to do when I’m like that is to give me the time and space to calm down.
My Greg came out a little while later and while shining a flashlight to light my way (like My Margret did earlier) he talked me down low enough that he could scoop me up and take me into the house.
The first thing I did was run to let My Margret know I was back in the house. She said “Buddy, you’re here!” and ruffled my fur, I was happy to see her. My Margret said she wished I wouldn’t do things like sneak out when it’s dark but what can I say there were night noises to explore. Um, don’t tell her but I’m finding that I much prefer exploring during the day. ~ Gus The Adventuring Cat
Note: Gus’s reflective collar, flashlight and air tag helped pinpoint his location. I saw and heard the commotion the bird made and understand why Gus was so scared. While we certainly don’t like that he snuck out in the dark we know that he is an excellent tree climber and although he sometimes likes to be coaxed he knows how to climb down and come back in the house. He’s keeping us on our toes, that’s for sure! ~ My Margret
I really like this new roof that shelters part of the pup/kitty pen. I like it because when standing on it I can see in the kitchen window instead of just out. I like it because it doesn’t move like the tree branches do. I like it because it’s larger than the top of the fence poles. Now if I can just figure out how to get back down! ~ Graham Kitty
