New Friends! Well, Sort Of...

Buddy was pretty skeptical of me at first (even though I spoiled him and Spike with wet food that they found to be yuuuuuummmmmyyy!) But guess who is my new BFF? Shayna! I brushed her for a long time. Look how sleek she looks!

My dangle toy got Buddy and Spike interested for a little bit.

Heee - check out Buddy attacking the toy from behind the banister!

Spike ventured up to the table to check out my stuff. Look at that left paw, ready to attack, if necessary! I gave him a wide berth.

Then the boys and Shayna seemed to settle in and start getting sleepy while I did the rest of the "chores" and went back to visit with Nadia and tell her goodnight. (No pictures of Nadia, but she did come out and eat a little bit while I was downstairs with her - after I moved over to the sink and then cleaned her potty. She had eaten a lot more after I went upstairs to visit with the rest of the clan.)

Oh, and Swimmy was doing well, too! Here he is telling me (and his little friend there) goodnight! Spike found something interesting out the back window just as I was leaving. Actually I think it might've been the reflection from my flashlight! Perhaps I'll try winning him over with the laser toy sometime today!

It's the MIB! (Men In Black)

As soon as I sat down on the porch to play and/or cuddle, Rambo charged right over! Merlin considered playing for about a second.


Merlin moved over by the door and looked at me pleadingly while Rambo and I played.

Heeeeeeeeeeeeee. (Check out Merlin in the background. Not interested at all.)

But Merlin was sooooo sleepy after eating all of the wet food I gave him and half of Rambo's too!

Rambo looking angelic on the heavenly porch.

Then Merlin started howling to go out! Demanding that I open the door for him! Ha!

The view of Rambo from under the glass table!

My, What Big Ears and Feet You Have!

"The better to play with you, Auntie Mel!"

Doodles, Poof-tastic and Pants

Pretty, Bossy, Smart Lady

"Auntie Mel, look how perfect and pretty I am!"

"Now give me more treats!!!"

"I know you have some in that backpack of yours! I can smell them for miles! (Oh, and your bottle of lotion is open.)"
