Weekend Recap

It's Sunday afternoon and the critters are all in various states of napping/lounging.  Saturday was a busy day as we celebrated the hubs and his birthday.  Parties are challenging for the critters as the flurry of activity before and then lots of new people, sounds, smells etc during the event itself can be stressful for them.

I am happy to report that all the critters were amazingly well behaved.  My mom was up for the weekend and her pup Quincy was great.  He has a hurting shoulder resulting in a limp which he milked for a ton of attention.  Emma was very good - begging for goodies but otherwise a very good girl.  Winston was great - he hung out in his room and napped for the bulk of the party.  When I asked him to go out he did and was very cooperative - no nipping or swiping at strangers.  He got some goodies as well - fruit and veges from our feast.  The little guys were great as well - they came out into the outside play space for some visits and Oliver was great about not meowing at the door. Sometimes if he hears us in the living room he meows at the door to let us know he would like to partake in the festivities - but he was a quiet boy last night.

Today everyone including the humans are having a bit of downtime as it should be...
