4. That IS progress...

On a couple levels!

Making progress with the three next door, their human might be home today, maybe. They come when called without too much trouble, still using the lilac switches that they love. They don't try to dart out the door when I arrive and leave and they haven't destroyed anything in the past nine days!

My big progress is with Peeps, the mom cat, she's around five years old and has never had any proper training. She has taken to what I'm doing with the kittens (ha! they're like eight pounders now) and follows instruction. She gets to stay out for a time after dark. So far she comes right up to the door when I go to put her in, no contest. She's such a good girl, very smart, I think she's happy someone noticed... someone who speaks cat.

Anyway, progress with both Merlin and Carys is significant. You deserve a treat, I mean something you enjoy not just a piece of cake!
