I’m going on holiday!!! Tomorrow!!!

Tara: It is going to be in a holiday den with a whole field for me to sniff and widdle in.  And a spiral staircase for me to Bounce up and down.  We are going to Do Stuff every day.  Old sniffy pubs and churches and footpaths and stuff.  Sausages and steak!  Every day!  And scrambled eggs!  Dad says there is a Marmoset Sanctuary Place! It is a longlonglong way away.  So Mum and Dad are going to drive me there.   And we are going mountaining and adventuring and exploring.  It is so far

Mum had a car crash!

Tara: Mum and Jasmine had a car crash!  It woz all Jasmine's fault!   Mum: Now Tara, you know that isn't true.  You can't blame Jasmine for what happened when she was a passenger sitting peacefully in her crate in the car, can you?   Tara:   Yes I can!  You woz only in the car cos you were picking Jasmine up from her sleepover.  If you had been safe at home with me and Cato then your car wouldn't have been crunchified.  And we could be going on nice trips to in

SUNDAY 7th Feb: Auntie walk! :)

Sidney: I have forgiven them.  We had a nice snuggle on the big bed, and I purred like a... a... well, I purred a lot.  Like a TIGER.  Mainly on account of the ear and cheek rub that Mum does.  And I didn't bite anyone.  Sometimes, when I have had enough of being fussed, I bite hands and arms, to tell people to stop.  Didn't need to this time. And I kneaded the bedcovers, and my injured paw kneaded properly, for the first time since my War Wound happened.  And my broken off claws were

TUESDAY 9th Feb: Fight! and Cemetery

Tara: Twice round the dog field today!  And through the cemetery.  And down the slippy leaf road! And we had that horrible forked lead thing on, which EVERYBODY hates, but Mum says is good to teach me manners.  Don't know what manners are, but I HATE them.  Lots of pics of me having fun, and Cato getting squished.  So it is all good. And Mum says that since I chewed the last wooden brush handle, I am not allowed another.  Not fair!  I only chewed it cos I LOVE it so much, and it w

SUNDAY 14th Feb: Auntie Jane Day!

Sidney:    2nd day of window open all day.  And now my foot hurts.  Pork for dinner.  And Mum says I have to stay in today to 'rest' it.  I live in a Nanny State.  But I left a pork chop bone on the top stair this morning.  I was watching through the bannisters.   She nearly trod on it in her bare feet.    Another Machiavellian plan foiled by human luck.  Humph.   Tara:     Proper walk today!  With lovely Auntee Jane. This is us waiting in the car for her to appear! I a

MONDAY 15th Feb: Stormy

Tara: Amazing walk today!  Wet and wild and bouncy.  We went twice round the big lake and I saw sleet and stuff.  It was very exciting.  The photos won't show nearly how exciting it was.  And we got SOAKED to the skin and it was FUN.  And there was mud and EVERYTHING.   Cato: It started out lovely and sunny, although there was a really cold wind.  And neither of us had fancied much breakfast. But half way round, the cloud came in, and Mum and Dad were scuttling as

TUESDAY 16th Feb: Pack walk (with Dad)

Cato: So when Dad has to do his Work Stuff, he goes out for ages, and sometimes he comes and goes in the middle of the night. It is always very exciting when he walks in, and we bounce and bounce and bounce! The last few days he has been getting up in the middle of the night, and missing our walks, so yesterday was GREAT.  He woke up with us, and walked with us AND went to bed with us.  I even went and spent  the evening with him yesterday evening, because I love him, and I can lie in

THURSDAY 18th Feb: Beach at half term

Tara: Whheeeeee!!!! After being boooorrrrreeeeeeeddddddd all day yesterday, we had a lovely beach walk today. See my sandy beard? and the deep and mysterious hole wot someone else dug but I am investigating? Did you see all the millions and millions and millions of people over Dad's shoulder?  It is because all the children are off school and trespassing on our beach So we have to behave. And fight! -  which got the sand off my moustache very nicely

TUESDAY 23rd Feb: Holiday Adventure

Sidney: off to prison  have my bed, my carrier, my catnip mouse, and i haven't had ANY breakfast.  But i had a good sleep last night.  I pushed Mum closer and closer to the edge, all night, til she woke up almost falling out.  Bet she misses that tonight!    Cato:   Long car journey.  We stopped once for widdling.  Lots and lots of strange dog sniffs and the grass was shoulder high, so lots of bouncing.  We also stopped in a car park and Dad went food shopping and Mum stayed with us.

THURSDAY 25th Feb: Bestest walk EVER!!!

Tara: looks like its just ME blogging tonight, cos Cato is fast asleep.  He is so worn out he has been snoring since we got home, and he didn't even want his tea!  Anyway, i am so good at blogging, i will do it all, and you will like my walk as much as me, cos it was the best ever ever ever. we had turkey mince and egg for breakfast, and then set off.  No car.  Just out of gate and off down track, going to this huge great Stoodley Pike place up the hill.  Mum has pics. it was cold

MONDAY 14th Mar: HELP!!! Emergency!!! Help!!!

Oh Aunties!  Help!   I need your help! We went up to bed last night as usual, and Dad put us in our pen.  And Mum went to do her stinky balthroom stuff  *! - Mum interjects here to point out that 'stinky bathroom stuff' actually means toothpaste, shower gel and body lotion, not the not-so-pleasant bathroom stinky stuff you may have been thinking - !* Then when she came in the bedroom, she said 'wot is that smell?' and Dad didn't know - but I did!  I was stuck in the smell!  It was all

No walkies

Mum: Hi All, Things have been a bit different the last few days.  Dad has a stinking cold, which I am trying not to catch.  It has been raining on and off.  I have twanged my Achilles tendon a bit - it has been hurting for a week so a bit of rest seems a good idea.  The mutts haven't had a walk in daysanddaysanddays (to quote them). The rest seems to be doing my tendon a power of good, which is great.  Dad isn't getting any better (we are hoping we will see a light at the end of t

WEDNESDAY 30th Mar: Ace Foxy walk!

Tara: So, we had a fab walk today at Foxy Park!  This is me and Dad and this is me splatting Cato over in the wilderness area (see my cunning tail grab manooover?) And this is him pathetically trying to chase me, in a really wimpish feeble way Ooops!  So, er, actually this this him catching me.  But only cos I let him! So then I had to get my revenge in the car park bit where Mum shouts at us if we fight - in case we get run over And this is wh

Wed 15th Feb: Big Lake Skies

Cato: Hello Aunties!  We had a great walk today.  All green and sniffy and muddy.  Much better than boring street walks and after dark walks. This is Tara going Hunting.  She messed it up.  It was all wet and soggy, and she wasn't expecting it.  Also, she thought I was right behind her, and I wasn't.  I was sniffing the ditch wall, back near the carpark, and she got a bit scared cos she doesn't like solo Hunting.  I prefer it, cos then no one else mucks it up.  Anyway, she didn't get h

SUNDAY 10th Apr: Town Park dramas

Tara:  So we had a lovely walk today, except for the bits that Cato ruined, cos he is a wimp. This is me.  Mum likes this photo.  And so do I.  I look all like a queen, don't I? While this is Cato looking all scruffy and manky We went to the nice park with the ducks and stuff in the middle of town, cos Mum wanted somewhere she could sit down if she wanted (she still coughs ALL NIGHT, you know), and we like chasing ducks so we said yes.  But then Cato messed it all up.

FRIDAY 15th Apr: B***, clip, good news, bad news

Cato:   Horrid stinky mean and scary bath at Aunty Lesley's.  Nice liver treats.  Farts incoming.  Now it is over, I don't mind so much. And Auntie Lesley has said I am not fat any more!  Yippee!  Tara isnt fat either, though she was much fatter than me. But Mum keeps glaring at Dad and saying 'Good.  Now let us KEEP him that way!'  And Dad keeps looking like a guilty person.  So I guess there may be less treats.  Dad is very nice at sneaking us stuff when he has his dinner killin

Sun 29th Jan: Yay! Town Park!

Tara: Aunties, I got to BOUNCE!   It has been terrible boring without bouncing.  But today I bounced and bounced! So, where shall we go?  Which way? This way!  Oi! Wait for me!  Cato went to see his friend Derek in the Floral Hall (even though he is supposed to have Mum or Dad on a lead if he goes in there.  He didn't wait.)  And Derek has retired now, so he doesn't work there any more. They had put lots of mulchy stuff on the ground around the plants

WEDNESDAY 20th Apr: Donkeys!

Cato: This is that first, all important sniff-widdle.  It was lovely. Boring white stuff and then we saw the Donkeys.  It was very exciting.  There were so many of them! This is me having a foray on the Donkey Side.  I slipped through the fence and started to go to see them, but I got distracted by some delicious Donkey Poo, and then I sort of realised how close I was to them, and turned round to find Mum, and she had disappeared!!!  So I executed a controlled

Grandad's Garden

Cato: OK so you Aunties are all plant mad and weird, so Mum and me have decided to tell you about Grandad's garden first, on account of it being boring and I want it out of the way so we can talk about the interesting sniffy stuff later. So Mum took lots of photos and these are the best ones, when it was sunny and stuff.  There was a big storm one night, so the light was a bit grey sometimes.   This is the view from my Hunting Spot.  I sat inside, in the warm, looking ou

TUESDAY 10th May: Too soggy

Cato:  Mum says it is too soggy for a walk today.   And Tara is being unbearable.  She was so bouncy that I wouldn't go to Dad to collect my Calcium Bone treat, so I didn't get one.  She had one though. Then Mum gave me mine when she wasn't around, but I made the mistake of going to my Treat Place in the front room, and she saw me.  If Dad hadn't been there, she would have stolen it. Anyway, Mum says since there is no walk, and no pics today, cos everything is soggy - except us, and we

WEDNESDAY 11th May: Karate smackdown

Cato:  Tara has a new obsession.  She has forgotten all about Tomboying, and has moved on.    We had a long boring day, and then Dad came home and Mum finished work, and we all went out to Our Field at the end of the road.  We were going to walk through the cemetery too, looking for ghosts, but after the Field we had ALL had enough, I think. Went round twice.  First time was fun. Sniffy holes: and Mum squeaking about all the dandy seed heads and isn't

SUNDAY 22nd May: Hot, sunny, Auntie Jane

Tara: They took AGES at breakfast.  And every time I whined, Mum prodded me with her toe.  She made me stop!  Not fair!  I was just pointing out that they could talk boring stuff while we were walking and eating sausages! Anyway, eventually we went to Foxy Park - but only after Mum had given away a piece of my sausage.  We were just getting to the Sausage Bit, away from the cafe, and before we got into the car, when Mum says 'Hello gorgeous!' to some fluffy Pomeranian.  And the Pom's D

TUESDAY14th June: Flowery Park and STEAK

Tara: So today is some anneversry thing for Mum and Dad.  Actually it isn't.  It was Saturday, but they forgot Hahahaha! and only remembered today!  So we went and had STEAK.  Dad had the big one again, and gave us bits when we got back to the car.  It was delish!!! But before that we went to Stinky Flower Town Park and spent ages being bored when Mum was taking pics.  Dad says he thinks he won't go there again if Mum takes the camera. Ha! I think Mum is going to save all the flowery b

THURSDAY 16th June: PingPongPark Rumble!

OK (says Mum) think we have to do this one a bit differently, since they can't agree who won The War.  So I will speak first, setting the scene, as it were, and then they will each get a turn to comment on each picture.   But before we start, I want to reassure you that no Shih Tzus were harmed in the making of this Epic, and they have both spent a lovely afternoon snuggled up with Dad on the sofa, watching the England v Wales footie match.  So Peace was restored. Since the weather was

FRIDAY 17th June: Green and cool

Cato: Ooooh, we had a LOVELY walk today.  The whole pack together.  Big Lake Park.  And it was lovely and cool, so I bounced and bounced and didn't flop AT ALL. (Mum: thermometer says 14-16 degrees, which is around 60 degrees F) Mum says she has been wondering if I woz ill or something,cos I haven't been very active, but now she thinks it is just the heat.  I don't like it when it gets over 20ish (70ish degrees F) Look wot I saw: Donkeys! And look wot Tara ate!
