What is it with me and wildlife this week? Yesterday afternoon at 2pm (seriously the middle of the afternoon), I was driving through a neighborhood close to mine on my way to a regular midday client and I see a raccoon. My initial reaction was "wow, a raccoon, I don't think I've ever seen one before." My next thought was... what is it doing out in the middle of the day. Perhaps suffering from dehydration and heat exhaustion. It stopped and stared at me (I was stopped at a stop sign) and then it swayed and wobbled as it tried to walk. It ended up going down into a sewer drain and then I wondered if maybe it had rabies. Poor thing. It's face was really cute. Sunny, Louis and Lola - Sunny woke me up in the middle of the night to go out so all of us ended up going out. We took a walk this morning in the neighborhood behind yours so they got a good chance to stretch their legs.
Scooby - He's been playful the last several visits. This morning he pulled his raccoon out of his toy box and I had to laugh. (See note above!) He's doing just fine, enjoying his walks. He's eating well too.
Lucky, Rocky, Mattie & Cotton - They were just fine both visits yesterday. Lucky is crazy and she had a great visit this morning. She chased sticks, chewed on sticks, peed, pooped 2x, ate some breakfast and played in the water when I watered the plants. I eventually had to hold onto her collar to keep her from running through the spray. Rocky just kind of hung out and sniffed around. Mattie and Cotton are fine too. I fed them all and scooped the kitty box this morning.
Jackson - He enjoyed running around the yard this morning and a walk. He's eating pretty good too... he's always excited when I put new food in his bowl.
Sweetie - she was my first visit this morning after leaving Sunny, Louis and Lola. On my way to your house, I heard that it is supposed to be 100 today with a heat index over 105. We walked this morning. :) I will walk her midday too but I wanted to get her out when it wasn't so hot. 105 is going to be a little warm. (I just stopped typing to drink some water. :) ) She peed 2x and pooped on the walk this morning.
