I know, I know, I've been M.I.A. for a while, but I have a
good reason...Cassius. I've been trying to keep up with that crazy kid. He's
definitely a hand-full, toy-thief, attention whore, etc... Grrrr.
It's been a few months since the last time I posted. I will be turning 5 years old next month (about 35 in dog years) and Cash will be 1 (about 7 in dog years). Holy cow--where has the time gone? He's like a real dog now. Scary...
Oh yeah, there have been a few new things that I almost forgot to mention. We have a new house-mate, Nat. She is awesome and a ginger! She always gives me and Cash lots of love!:) She moved in during the summer. I protect her and her room from the evil cat when I'm not hogging Julie's bed. She used to take us for long walks until we accidentally broke her foot. Cash and I are both very sorry.
On another note, yesterday we got to go to the groomers! I kind of like going there. I feel all shexy when they are done. Haha Cash on the other hand is traumatized for life. First of all--he hates car-rides. He also does not like strangers, especially strangers brushing and washing him. He was not a happy camper. At least he smells good now.
So we both have claimed Julie's bed as our own. I take the
middle and then Cash takes whatever side seems to have more room, leaving
Julie with the crack by the wall. It's always a fun game when Moe tries to find
a spot on the bed. I tell Cash I'll give him some of my kibble if he chases her
away. I never do, but he always falls for it.
I will post again sooner than later, and I will leave you
with these fun facts for your awesome Monday: *Information adapted from the examiner.com.
