Finally Friday!!!

And I'm off work for the next 5 nights!!! Yay!! Of course it's hotter than hell here. It's been about a 100 the last couple of days. I have lots to do inside though.
Scout is doing a little bit better I think. She is actually sitting in the window sill in the sun right now, which is basically right next to me. But I'm ignoring her which seems to make her happier. She has finally been eating which is good. I'm hoping that the rescue lady can take her today and that she won't look like a wild animal. Right now the progress is directly related to her being segregated from the other animals completely and from me mostly leaving her alone. She still spends the majority of her time under the shelf.
I have a dentist appointment in a couple of hours. Oh goody.
Then I need to go to Target or Home Depot. I came up with an idea for Mrs. Dovie. She was again trying to build her nest on my ceiling fan blade on the porch this week as there is a bunch more of the twigs and stuff scattered around. Plus I saw her sitting up there several times. I have a place where I could put a bird house but I don't think she'd do the bird house. So I'm going to try to find a cheap hanging pot thing, put some of that moss stuff in it and hang it up for her where it's away from the porch a bit but where she can happily make her nest. Hopefully that will work out well for everyone.
Yesterday and today I took the dog and cats for a walk. It's so funny to be walking down the road and see someone in a car driving by do a total double take when they realize I'm pushing a stroller full of cats down the road. The cats of course still love it. They hardly make a sound the entire ride and are so busy looking around at everything. It's very cute.

Yay for being off 5 nights now!

Glad to hear Scout is doing better, and hope rescue lady will help you out.

And yeah, cats in a stroller - real funny! Great that the cats enjoy it :-).

What is this "hot", of which you speak?? (It's FREEZING here.)

Have a wonderful 5 days off, wootaramo for the Bats! (I always call you Bats, in my mind)

Also, well done on going to the dentist and I hope it goes ok. XO

Great idea for Mrs. Dovie and I would love to see you pushing the cats. Enjoy your time off.

LOL I think I would do the double take too. I don't think I have ever seen a stroller full of cats.

I am glad scout is doing better and I hope she finds a home soon.

Enjoy your 5 nights off!

I'm glad Scout seems to be doing a bit better. I was going to suggest that you keep her away from the other animals just for a while and maybe make the introductions a little bit at a time, but you've already donne it. If she's been abused it will take her a long time to trust you.

I also get upset and irritated when I get talked into do something I didn't really want to do. It was his cat and his responsibilty to find an appropriate home for.

Hope things work out for both of you!

I would love to see a video of you strolling down the street with your full pram.

And I'd also love to see a video of the reaction of the people watching you!

Rest up!

I'm very interested to see if Mrs Dovie falls for your not-so-much-a birdhouse...
