Being that the felines don’t go out, this is as close as Mr. Nine gets to a nap in the garden.
He went outside once (for 3 days) and it scared him for years.
I cannot imagine a life without cats!

Thunderstorms are a normal occurrence around here and so is thunder anxiety.

Sofie has eaten through that door 3 times now (I have become an expert at fixing it, watch my video) and pulled up the wall-to-wall carpet.
I try to always be there if I can when a storm is in the forcast.

It seems that we are always having to make goo-goo eyes at Mom these days to get Second Supper. Why doesn’t she just give it to us immediately without our having to line up and make all kinds of unearthly noises and faces? Charles is the worst. He sounds like an Ewok from that Star movie. Or some animal dying. Me, well, I just whine and whine and whine until she gives in. How can anyone resist my smile? – Sofie
What kind of mischief did you get into today?

Nine has decided that the big dog bed is his this week. Funny how they move around.

Louise is the only dog in the house that any cat would even think of curling up with.

I love the yellow swallowtails on the Buddleia this time of year: that is pure summer.

It is always interesting to see the cats mirror the dogs (or was this the other way around?) I don’t know if Lulu was there first or Nine.

I am used to the dogs mirroring the position of each other. Especially these two.
Do you mirror your siblings?

This was the first ‘Black & White Sunday’ post I ever did. It was December 16, 2012. I definitely have gotten better at taking pictures of the goofballs in the last 9 years.
Come on Louise, let’s play!
When you have a dark dog and a light dog, getting the right camera exposure is really hard. Sofie is on my lap on the couch and Louise is on the floor. Yes, those are my piggy pajamas she has her head on (bottom right corner); they are purple. The caption should probably read something more like: “This is my Mommy, so go away!” which seems to be a constant lap battle around here. – 12.16.12
