What is That?

13 Feb

What were the goats looking at?  (Sorry for the small, crappy cell phone picture, but it’s all I had with me, and I had to hang up on my mom to take these pictures.  Don’t worry, she’s used to that kind of stuff from me.)

Yep.  They noticed Sky.

He was pretty unimpressed.

Dolly, with her triplets, was a little concerned.

If there had not been a fence, Penny would have killed him.  Seriously.

He did finally notice them and think they were a little interesting.

He was really good though.  He didn’t even bark at them.

I do hope you’ll consider coming back to join me for Friday’s Hunt.  I have this week’s items at the top of my side bar.

Puppy Rule #1

12 Feb

The first rule of being a puppy at Eden Hills is:  Do not mess with the Bob Cat.  Of course, Bob did not jump on the counter out of fear when the puppy appeared.  He just happened to be going that way.

Please note the tail is pulled up, so the puppy cannot possibly touch the it.  The look is contemplating how to get rid of the little mutt forever.

Bob might smack you through the puppy gate.  Or right on your tender little nose.  Even when you are just sitting there and not doing anything wrong.

It’s best to avoid the Bob Cat.

I have to say, I was pretty impressed with Snickers.  He has a laid back attitude about Sky.  Maybe it’s the attitude of experience.

In general, he ignores the pup, even if he’s being bounced on.  He just keeps going to the table to sun himself like always.

Leo.  Well, Leo is nowhere in sight.  He hasn’t come down from the upstairs since Sky showed up.  Luckily for him I took him food, water and a litter box.  He might never come down again.

Play Day

11 Feb

We had beautiful, unseasonably warm weather today, so I decided to let Dolly and her kids out to run around.  The kids had a lot of fun racing and bouncing through the barnyard.

And they have names now:  Sidney, (maa Dolly) Andy, and Silvia LilyAnn.
