pet sitting on Sunday 6/3
Sweetie - your friend stopped by yesterday afternoon while I was there. Sweetie really liked him! All 3 of our visits have been great but I'm not sure if she is feeling quite right this morning. My first clue was that she didn't eat her breakfast and then I could hear her tummy rumbling. She did pee 2x and poop on the walk this morning.
Molly - Molly's "sniffer" gets her in trouble. :) After she peed and pooped this morning, she started hunting for dead worms. She really seems to love them and I had trouble pulling her away from them last night and this morning but I know you don't want me to let her eat them, so I didn't let her!
Madison & Murphy - each one was on either side of me on the arm rests last night and I was petting them both. They seemed to really enjoy it. This was of course, after they'd gobbled down their dinner!

Madison & Murphy - your housekeeper came yesterday and everything looks really nice! However, I couldn't find the cat brush. Ugh! I looked around but didn't see it. I think it must be with the lids for the cat food cans too - I couldn't find those either. They're probably both right under my nose. I thought Madison was going to crawl in my lap but she was just crossing over to the other side of the chair arm. They both got lots of rubbing.
Molly - She is doing just great. We've walked every visit. For the last visit last night, we had an owl hissing / whistling at us. It was sitting on top of the house next door (see photo). As I was driving away, there was another owl on the electrical wires above the driveway. We didn't stay outside too long last night (just long enough for Molly to pee) and I stayed very close to her. The weather is nice and cool this morning - great weather for a dog walk so we did!!

Madison and Murphy - they are doing fine although someone threw up on the rug in the kitchen yesterday. It cleaned up easily. I did notice that the plastic bag with the hershey kisses in it had been chewed on and it looked like one of the chocolates had been nibbled a little bit too. You either have a mouse (doubtful with those 2 cats!!) or one of the cats was bored. I put the kisses in a HT bag and put them in the pantry. They have been highly interested in dinner time so I don't think the chocolate did any harm. Madison has been playing a good bit and they both have liked getting brushed.

Madison & Murphy - They are doing just great and it sounds like Wesley loved her visits with them! Last night when I was there, after they ate, I played with Madison while attempting to brush Murphy at the same time. That took some coordination and I'm not so sure I was very good at doing both at the same time! I checked for accidents and so far so good... looks like Murphy has been content to go in the box! :)

The blog will not be updated until Tues 5/29. If you would like an update from your pet sitter, please contact her directly or contact me (I will occasionally be checking email and vm) and we'll be happy to let you know how everything is. Each pet sitter has your contact information so if she needs to reach you (or me), she can. Thanks so much and have a safe and Happy Memorial Day. AND congratulations to my oldest nephew Andy who is graduating from high school tomorrow!!!! :)
pet sitting on Sunday 5/20
Sparky - Her little face was in the window this morning when I got there. I was disposing of the mouse that was still around... I was hoping that nature would take its course and some hawk would carry it off but no luck. She gobbled down her breakfast and then was ready to start her morning patrol of the yard!
Chester & Bailey - Bailey spent the last part of the visit searching for the ball. It is somewhere in the tree line.... hopefully not over the fence but she looked for quite awhile and never found it. Ugh! It was the lighter ball too... I hope we can find it next visit! They are doing just fine and all three of us are loving this cooler weather!
