A Pilgrim’s Progress

Four Weiners and Two Pussy Cats

I am dog/cat sitting 4 Dachshunds and 2 cats for a couple that went to the Lower 48 for a vacation road trip. These creatures absolutely crack me up, they’re almost like a school of fish and always going the same direction together such as when they burst out the front door gaily barking, side-by-side, like 4 plump Oscar Meyers. Two of them have bad backs, I mean, actually had back surgeries bad. They run crooked and can’t jump up on furniture, but have no problem keeping up with the other two.

At night it is hilarious, all 4 of them climb under my covers and snuggle up against me. It is a good thing I have heavy sleep and don’t move much b/c they have me penned in.

One of the cats does not meow, ever, but it is partially social. The other will not leave the top of a sewing machine table except to use the litter box below. She meows a lot but does not leave her scaredy cat post. The two of them usually have one spat during the day, but I think they are both de-clawed so it only amounts to paw slaps.

Off I go…
