Visit #1

Arrived today at 4:45 and entered through the garage. Went back to get Porter and she came bounding out of the room very excited to see me. I don't think it dawned on her that I was a stranger :) Took her outside and gave her a scoop of food which she promptly gulped down. I watched to be sure she did her business and she complied by watering the lawn a couple times.
We ran around the backyard for awhile and played... caught her shaking her head -
Now.. if you were a bad guy and saw this coming toward you it would be pretty intimidating, right? Oh, don't be fooled ;)
She promptly knocked me over and slobbered my camera right after the shot :)
We played for about 20 minutes and then I sat down so she would wander off and finish her business.. she snuck around the corner for some privacy and a quick peek confirmed the deed was done. I filled up her water dish outside and we headed in. I double checked to be sure she had water left in the bathroom and she did. I was about to leave when I noticed the tv was on, but not on a station -- it was on some kind of informational mode. It said to hit select to view the tv, so I did.. and then left a very happy and worn out Porter to watch NASCAR (sorry Porter hehe). Double checked to be sure everything was locked up tight and left through the garage. Will return in the morning for breakfast time.

Visit #4 - Final visit.

Arrived at the house today at 3:30. Brought the kids with me today and Alissa had a blast playing with the cats. I cleaned the upstairs litter box first and again one of the cats didn't make it into the litter a couple times, I can't quite imagine how they could misfire like that.. but I digress. :)

We headed downstairs and filled the water dish and topped off their food. Cleaned up the litter box and spent a little time giving the cats some love. Then we said our goodbye's and headed out to check on the chickens.
Everyone was doing great and happy to see us. Cleaned and filled the water and filled up their food container. Again I was amazed at how much these little gals can eat.
Collected thirteen eggs and said goodbye to the chickens.
It was fun to be back again and hang out with Dante, Zeus, and the seven chickens! :) We left and everyone was happy, healthy, and eager to see their people.
