Emily

I think Emily shocked me right out of my boots today! She was resting on the bed when I came in. She let me snap a picture of her for you and even came over to sniff me- YEA!! Though she didn't want me to pet her, I was very honored that she was interested, even a little bit.

Emma & Otto

Hmmm, I am most certainly getting a complex today. It seems like all the households I have visited with kitties today are shy :( Emma was rather friendly this morning but not up for much interaction this evening. Otto was...well...Otto...  Everybody was good about pills though, so I consider it a successful day!

Danika & Badger

Danika decided to test my heart strength today! Usually she comes running when I open the front door and today she was nowhere to be found. I looked all over, calling her name. I finally found her fast asleep in her cat bed upstairs. She totally gave me the "What? What do you look so worried for?" look. After her nap, she was ready for some playtime and lots of lovins of course! Badger was at least in his usual hiding spot and didn't run in abject terror :)

Lia

Lia was in her behind the picture frames hiding spot today so no chance of a picture :( She did give a quick meow? of greeting though, so I was quite thrilled with that!

Lia

Miss Lia was doing good, hiding in her usual spot so no pictures today. I would love to get a full shot of her for you (and me!) one day!

Keiso

Awww, I always dread the last visits! Keiso was his usual happy-go-lucky self, full of kisses and tail wags. I sure am going to miss him :( Talk to you soon!

Keiso

I can't believe this week flew by so fast! It was icky out today, cold & windy, so Keiso and I snuggled and played inside after his potty break. He cracks me up. He had the zoomies and we chased eachother around the house. I didn't get a pic today but here is yesterday's since I missed the update last night.

Lizzie, Hallee, Simon & Hobbes

The kitties are anxiously awaiting your return :) Hallee decided to  "help" today and follow me into each room to make sure I was cleaning up to her standards. She even tried to help a bit by jumping in the litterbox. Silly girl! Hobbes was on his perch watching all the goings on while Simon & Lizzie stayed in their usual spot. They all send lots of purrs and kisses.

Keiso

Keiso was of course wonderful today as always. It was still nice out when I got there this morning so we hung out in the backyard for a bit. He of course followed us all over the house as well :) Oh and Paul said yes, so give me a call when you get back in town!

Lizzie, Hallee, Simon & Hobbes

We had a heck of a storm earlier but thankfully the northern parts of the city didn't get hit as bad. The kitties were all snussled in, snug as a bug when I got there earlier. The storm didn't seem to bother them at all. Hallee gobbled all the canned food before Simon & Hobbes came downstairs. I'm glad I only set the small can out. Managed to get a quick picture of Lizzie. Not the greatest shot as she didn't feel like coming out but I am happy she felt up for one today :)

Keiso

Hee hee, I got to spend snuggly and playtime with Keiso today :) He sure does know how to cheer me up! You can see what a ham he is in his picture today. Ohh and Paul is coming to look tomorrow so send lots of positive vibes!! Hope you are having a great trip!

Lizzie, Hallee, Simon & Hobbes

All is well with the kitty crew :) I think I am going to try camping out on the couch for a bit tomorrow afternoon with a book and see if anyone besides Hallee feels like snuggling- fingers crossed! Maybe then I can get a picture for you. Everyone sends lots of purrs and kisses.

Jake & Toby

During the afternoon playtime, I got to see how Toby falls over and lets Jake be the top dog like you described. What a sweet and smart boy! They were very snuggly today and full of kisses :) This morning was quite brisk but that didn't bother the boys at all, in fact, I think they loved it.

Awww, look at that sweet face!

Idgy, Jellobee, Leo & Napoleon

Awww, the girls are adorable with their new haircuts! Everyone was snuggly tonight with the exception of Leo. I am still amazed at how much the addition of Napoleon has gotten Idgy out of her shell, she is like a different dog!

Taz, Winston, Tinker & Reggie

Another beautiful fall day out :) The boys are all doing great and enjoying lots of scritches and belly rubs. Found out how Tinker was dumping the removable steel bowl, pretty ingenious. He stepped under it and bonked his head to move it. All the puppers were quite happy as he threw food for them. I did manage to fill the normal bowl so he seems much happier with that.

Jake & Toby

A bit of winter in the air here tonight, our evening walk was a bit chilly but smelled of fall which was great. The boys did wonderful today. Much frolicking and scritches. During the afternoon visit we played chase in the backyard and I managed to snap the boys playing. They are too adorable!

Taz, Winston, Tinker & Reggie

I played some music on my phone for Tinker today and we danced to the music :) It seems that extra visit did the trick, no accidents during the day and I know Taz loved the extra ball time! I startled poor Reggie earlier, he was so sound asleep, he didn't hear me walk in. Winston got in on the ball action today and was one happy puppers :)

Lizzie, Hallee, Simon & Hobbes

No pictures again :( Hallee is the only one who doesn't seem afraid of it and usually all I catch is a blur as she comes up for some lovins! I am dying to get a shot of Simon, he is such a beautiful kitty. Everyone is doing great, though I know they miss you and can't wait to see you.

Lizzie, Hallee, Simon & Hobbes

Hallee comes running as soon as I open the front door with the most adorable trilling meow hello :) The other kitties are not as into being social but everyone is at least making an appearance. I do wish Hobbes would "hide" on top of the curio again though, I would love to be able to snap a picture of him up there! Lizzie and Simon prefer the comfort of their usual spot but Lizzie makes sure to give a sniff and allow a pat or two each visit.

Taz, Winston, Tinker & Reggie

Tinker is having a blast while you are gone- yesterday he had fun flinging his food and bowl and earlier today he took much delight in shredding the paper. He is way to cute to get upset at though, you have to love those clownish antics :) Taz, Winston & Reggie are all doing great and seemed very excited to see your parents. Taz had me wrapped around his paw with the ball playing, although I sneak outside with Winston sometimes so he can play fetch too.

Indi, Kai, Kili & Koa

Koa was quite the snuggler tonight, Kili was not quite sure of what to make of someone else sitting on the lap she wanted. Kai was in a talkative mood :)

Indi, Kai, Kili & Koa

Both Kili & Koa were quite the snuggle bugs tonight! Kai wanted some lovins too, but Kili didn't want to share so I snuggled with her a bit once Kili wandered off. Everyone misses you and send lots of kisses and purrs!

Taz, Winston, Tinker & Reggie

Everyone is doing great :) Winston hasn't had any seizures that I can tell, he is always wags when I walk in. Taz of course is a mad man for any fetch and Reggie is loving all the attention. Tinker decided he wanted to throw food at me tonight, goofy bird. Taz was quite happy about it though!

Taz, Winston, Tinker & Reggie

Another beautiful day to play outside! Everyone got lots of scritches and lovins along with a treat or two. Tinker decided to talk today, he said Reggie's name and startled me quite a bit! I even looked around at who was calling for him.

Lucy

Lucy is such a doll! She greets me with such enthusiasm, I just love her to bits! She said to send lots of kisses and tail wags :)

Indi, Kai, Kili & Koa

It was Britany's turn with the girls today, she missed them so! Of course everyone got spoiled and had lots of playtime with the toys :)

Taz, Winston, Tinker & Reggie

Taz & Winston met me at the door, Taz with ball in mouth :) It was a beautiful afternoon so we played in the yard and soaked up the sun. I got so enthralled with them that I plain forgot to snap some photos! Tinker of course rang the bell to let me know that I needed to pay attention to him instead of those "silly little four legged animals". He took a peanut from me right away and even whistled a couple times along with various other noises. Now to get him talking! Reggie & Winston took their pm meds with no problems.

Lucy

What a darling girl Lucy is! It took a few moments for her to start to feel comfortable but she warmed up quickly, giving me lots of kisses in the process. Tonight she was all wags and kisses as soon as I walked through the door :)

Indi, Kai, Kili & Koa

Koa and Kili were being crazy kitties this morning, zooming all around the house. Too cute! I wish I had been able to catch it on video. Kai still refuses to let me take pictures of her and I almost got one of Indi as she came out from under the bed to eat her breakfast but she dove for cover when she saw it :(

Conan & Ary

Aww, I was sad to say goodbye today. Conan is just the most darling kitty and Ary and I have come to get to know each other a bit, as long as Conan isn't nearby!

Maizy

Maizy's tummy must have been a bit upset last night, poor girl! She left several presents but was kind enough to make all but one in the sunroom. Hopefully she is feeling better now. She was her usual happy-go-lucky self this morning, all ball all the time :)

Camry, Ollie & Saki

I can't believe my time is almost up with Camry, Ollie & Saki! I am sure they will be thrilled to have you home, but I am wishing you were gone a few more days ;)  I will miss them like crazy!

Indi, Kai, Kili & Koa

Kili & Koa were both vying for lap time today :) Have I mentioned how much I love my job and your kitties?! They are all doing great and send lots of kisses and purrs.

Maizy

Hee hee, Maizy is such a silly girl, and so well behaved! We had lots of fun playing ball in the backyard. I think I tired her out, at least for a few minutes. Both kitties are inside and were very lovey :)

Conan & Ary

The kitters were good yesterday. Ary was hanging out under the desk upstairs and Conan was of course following me everywhere!

Indi, Kai, Kiki & Koa

Poor Kai, she really doesn't like my camera phone! She was so adorable this morning and I wanted to snag a picture but as soon as I took it out, she took off like the devil was after her... Kili & Koa were their usual lovey selves, wanting lots of scritches and attention. As you can tell by the picture, Koa was more interested in getting a pat than posing. Indi at least comes out from under the bed to eat now, though she still gives me her "look". They send lots of purrs and kisses.

Camry, Ollie & Saki

I seriously think you may come home to a pupper free house! I looove them all so much that I want to stick them each in my pocket and carry them around with me :) Another beautiful day and we all soaked in the sun as tomorrow looks to be a bit icky. I got lots of kisses from Saki tonight and Camry had to come over to make sure she got her share. Ollie was excited on our evening walk and some bunnies were playing hide and seek. Thankfully the bunnies were good at the hide part!

Lizzie, Hallee, Simon & Hobbes

All kitties are doing great. No one other than Hallee feels like coming out to be social but they are not running away in abject terror either ;) No new pics today. I am going to try to remember my real camera tomorrow so maybe I can get a shot of one of the other kitties for you.

Camry, Ollie & Saki

I don't think we could have ordered more perfect weather for this week, the puppers and I are loving it! Ollie has been licking his right paw a bit today and the pad looked a little sore. I did call your daughter and am keeping a close eye on it. If you have anything that you ususally do in this case, let me know and I will take care of it.
Other than that, all is good and the puppers of course say Hi and that they miss you!

Lizzie, Hallee, Simon & Hobbes

The kitties were all good. I am thrilled that Hallee is the welcoming committee! Hobbes came out when he heard the can but Simon waited until I was a safe distance away before venturing out. Lizzie at least let me give her a gentle pat. They all send lots of purrs and kisses.

Conan & Ary

Well, Miss Ary decided to hide from me today, all I got to see was a white blur running away :( Conan on the other hand was all about the lovins. He even turned down fresh food and decided to snuggle with me instead!

Indi, Kai, Kiki & Koa

Britany visited with the kitty girls today and got to meet Kili for the first time. I think she has fallen for her just as much as I have :) All the girls are doing great and enjoyed all the play & attention time. I am looking forward to seeing them myself tomorrow!

Camry, Ollie & Saki

Ollie was intent on going for a car ride today. Each time we walked by my car, he just stopped dead and looked at me expectantly :) We all enjoyed the perfect day out again, couldn't have asked for a nicer day! Camry laid down in front of Saki's food to which Saki grumbled under her breath, such an Akita ( I just love her to bits)!!

Conan & Ary

Conan was of course out and begging for food the second I walked through the door, giving me the "Where have you been, I'm DYING" look. Once he ate his fill, he settled in for lots of scritches and love. Ary at least stuck around long enough to make sure she was ok, but took off right after I snagged a shot of her.

Lizzie, Hallee, Simon & Hobbes

All the kitter cats were good and all made an appearance (well, Simon & Lizzie were under the bed but I think that counts!) Lizzie met me at the door like my own personal welcoming committee which I appreciated :) No pictures today, must have been paparazzi around earlier as they all looked at me with disdain when I brought the camera out.

Camry, Ollie & Saki

Today was another absolutely perfect day out! The puppers and I all enjoyed walks by the lake as well as hanging out on the balcony soaking up the sun. Camry and Ollie vied for my attention while Saki patiently waited her turn. As you can see, Camry was asking to go inside for her lunch treat and Saki is keeping an eye out on the world so that no rouge squirrels make it into her territory!

Camry, Ollie & Saki

Ollie managed to flip his food bowl all over the kitchen floor this evening. I'm guessing he was trying out for a new event in the Olympics :) Both Ollie & Saki were very interested in the grass right by the pond, trying their best to find the lovely presents the geese had left earlier- no such treats were consumed however! Camry was her usual sweet self. She is always the first one down the steps to greet me at each visit. Hope you are both having a wonderful trip!

Camry, Ollie & Saki

I think I am in love! I don't know who is sweeter, Camry, Saki or Ollie :) We had a great day yesterday and today. Walks around the lake and lots of snuggle and scritches time. Of course we have been hanging out on the balcony as well, watching the world (and squirrels) go by. Everyone is doing fantastic, eating and behaving themselves.

Camry tells me very politely when I am not giving her enough attention, she is too adorable for words. Saki has been giving me lots of kisses, she reminds me of my chow mix so much! Ollie is my constant companion and trying to "help" with the daily chores, what a sweetie! They all send lots of tail wags and kisses.

Camry, Ollie & Saki

The first couple visits went great! All three puppers met me at the door with wags. Saki took a couple minutes to warm up but Ollie was my constant companion. Camry and I snuggled on the couch tonight and she was quite happy to get lots of scritches and attention. Look for pictures tomorrow!
