Well, that was fun. Not.

There was a light rain falling. I saw Rhys and Rhian in the bigger shelter that's on the deck so I thought why not bring them some food, since there's room for a couple of bowls. I grabbed some kibble and a small packet of pate to give them as a treat.

No sooner did I start pouring out the kibble when the rain started to POUR down. My hands got wet and it was hard to rip open the pate pouch! None the less, I persisted. Then, as I was racing back to the house I saw Pembroke (AKA Mittens II and likely Rhys' dad), headed to the shelter. I had a little more kibble so back I went. Now they are all dry and settled in, happily chowing down.

Me? Not so dry but that's OK. I'm about to head upstairs to take a shower, anyway. However, Sian seems determined to give me a kitten bath, right now.

Thank you +1000.



P.S. There should be cat and dog smiley.

Every afternoon she climbs up on my lap and falls asleep. She loves to give me head nuzzles. She greets anyone who comes by and warmed right up to my friend who was visiting.
