Aunties, come and see! It was an ACE walk!
First we visited the Sausage Place with Mum and Dad.
Did you see all the dangly bobbles on the cealing? That is all to do with SantaPaws coming to visit, Mum says.
Then we went on the beach and had my special Gluten Free Sausages
The sea was there, but it hadn't eaten all the beach yet, but it was terrible windy.
AuntieMarlene, LOOK! I did a special Air Widdle especially for you! Tara is just jealous.
Come on Aunties! Follow me!!
We had a walk yesterday, but it was after Mum finished work, so it was too dark for pics. Today was dark and grey too, but it was dry and not too cold, so we didn't need our jumpers.
I decided that this little pink girl was a bit wobbly, so I followed her for a while to make sure she was OK. She was.
This is Mum pointing the pic at the sun - see the watery white light through the branches? It was very wimpy, wasn't it? Tara used to
Tara: Mum did her computer stuff all morning, and Dad went out. Then we went for a nice walk at lunchtime. It was COLD!!! See how blue the sky is? That is cos it was so crispy cold and the wind was brrrrrrr! Mum said that we should have worn coats, but if we ran around a lot, we would stay warm. And we did.
We had to stay on the path, cos Mum said it was too muddy !!!!!
So we went past this man twice, cos we went round the lake twice to get enuff bouncing done.
The man woz
Tara: So we didn't get a walk AT ALL yesterday. Nothing. It woz terrible. so I had lotsandlotsandlots of BOUNCE stored up. See?
We met thousandsandthousandsandthousands of paws today. So many I can't remember all their names. But I remember their sniffs.
Cato likes EVERYONE, doesn't he?
I bounced on him so hard that his coat fell off! hahaha! and Mum had to carry it.
There were whole flocks of paws around. And some of them were REALLY OLD
I decid
Cato:
I have to blog again today, cos Tara is still fussing about the pink booster seat she isn't going to get. Her latest worrit is asking Mum to get her a pink rolling suitcase, for some reason. Girls, eh?
This is when we were on the beach (after the Sausage Place). We have had sausages four days this week. Tara thinks that car hunting is boring, but it seems to mean lots of sausages, so I kind of don't mind.
See how I am braced to meet her charge. Haha!
She
Cato:
Oh Aunties. It was such a boring day! We got left alone TWICE!!! Once in the morning before breakfast, and then once in the afternoon, after breakfast. It was very worrying. But then Mum came and said she was sorry and walked with us to the Hot Choc place. And we saw a CAT.
But that was it. The whole of the rest of the day was really nothing exciting.
Tara says she doesn't like the new car, and she hasn't even met it yet. She says that it doesn't have nice seats,
Tara: I got to sit on the car seat with Dad and Nana! All the way there! And all the way back! Cato sat ON Dad's knee, but my spot woz better, cos I got fussed by Nana too! It woz ACE!!!
We went to drop Pops and Nana in town, and then went on to My Favourite Walk in All the World! Look!
Lots of pics today. This is when I woz duck hunting. But they were all hiding. The mud was lovely and squishy, cos it had melty leaves all squishifying in it.
That is the ben
Cato:
So today and yesterday have been WEIRD Aunties, and it has been very strange indeed. I will tell you about our walks, and then about the weirdnesses. Cos I don't don't think I like them.
We went to Our Field yesterday, and did some running and fighting and bouncing. See?
This is at the top of the steps. I was trying to decide if they were safe.
We looked down the side, incase that was better. But it wasn't.
And then Tara pushed past me, and went do
Cato:
Ooooh we had a lovely walk today, Aunties. There was Auntie Jane, and sausage, and sun, and lots of friends! Look!
These are The Westies. We don't know their names, but there was little miss pink collar, and bouncy blue collar. They were very nice and friendly. Miss pink collar wanted to play, and was very waggy.
All the leaves have gone now.
and the mud has arrived.
This is where all the knickerprickles are lurking under the leaves, so Mum does
Tara:
We went to the big lake! It was damp and sniffy and grey, but it was also FUN!!!
Haha! Cato thought we were off down the path, like last time! Haha! but Me and Mum wanted to go down the tunnel instead. Mum said we could try it, and if she sank up to her neck in the mud, we could stand on her head to stay safe till rescuers arrived. Only there wouldn't be room, would there. I would have to stand on her head, and Cato would just have to sink.
Anyway, all the mud

Tara: Cato is being very weird. I told you that before. But... he is ruining my Bounce Fun. He is being very um... rough. And bossy. Mum keeps talking about pack dynamos n stuff. But it doesn't help at all. Why can't he go back to being all wimpy and fun to splat?
Cato:
Ace walk today! I used not to like the beach, but it is growing on me! Yay! We waited til it stopped raining, then me and Mum and Dad and Tara all went down the beach. It woz fun!
That is
Cato: Everything sniffs different in the dark, doesn't it?
Mum and Dad couldn't walk us in daylight yesterday and then Dad had to go to do his shifty thing, and Mum finished her computer stuff, and she took us for a street walk in the dark! Tara doesn't really like it. I think it is because she pulled most of her topknot out 5 mins before we left, so she couldn't see properly. Wot with it being all dark. She was spooking a lot, and once she spooked and jumped away from something right
Tara:
Epic Ninja Beach Battles today! And look, someone brushed the sand for us! It was weird to walk on. All soft.
Cato didn't like it to start with, but then he caught up with Me and Dad.
So I had to fight him.
But Aunties, I think you need to have a bit of a word with Mum. About Cato. Cos he has been a bit weird lately, and it is all wrong. It started with the whole gluten free thing. I mean, I don't mind that he is so wimpy that he can't
Cato: we were so excited about our new beds, that we forgot to tell you about our walk! So Mum said we should do an extra blog specially. I think it is a good idea cos, you know. Leaf on face!!!! hahahaha!
So, this is before the leaf. When we had just arrived. And Tara woz doing her scouting thing (showing off for Dad, really)
And it was fun. And sniffy. And all the leafy stuff is on the ground now. But I'm not sneezing and dripping and snuffling. Have you n
Cato: Oooh Tara, look wot I found!
Tara: Wossat? Is that...?
Cato: I think so! Look! There's your stinky bed in it. And your name. In PINK!
Tara: Cor! And look. There's your name in GREEN. And your stinky bed. And... look... there are treats on it.
Cato: Where! Where are MY treats? Gerroff! Go sniff your own treats! Go on! Shoo!
Tara: But.. but... I saw them first!
Mum: Tara love, look what is in your bed - more treats...
Cato: Sorry Aunties, Mum has not been doing her Mum Duty today. She forgot the camera, used her phone, AND she rushed our walk so that she could have a hot chocolate!
It was a nice blue sky today, but really cold. We didn't want to have our jumpers put on, but maybe we should have. We walked all the way to the beach promenade, and then I didn't want to go down on the beach. Cos of Tara's beachy bouncing. And then Tara saw all the big dogs on the beach, and she didn't want to go d
Tara: My turn to blog! Cato has been hogging the blogging! Haha!
We went to Town Park today with Mum AND Dad today. It was fun. Though there weren't many stinky flowers for Mum. And the chicken place was shut. But it woz a fun walk. Look!
I was investigerating round the corner in that pic.
And this is all those big chestnut trees that Mum says are nice and cool and dark like a cathedral in the summer. Wotever. Did you know I went to a cathedral once. It woz very b
Cato: Mum and Dad took us out this evening, after they did their work stuff. It was dark! We don't usually go out when it is dark. This is where we went:
Did you see the sign saying 'No Dogs On The Furniture'? haha! Tara wanted to climb up. haha!
It was nice and warm. And the nice lady tried to give us biscuits! We would have liked them, but Mum said 'No Gluten!!!'
But it woz OK, cos Dad had some GFSausage in his pocket, and we got some. It is GREAT, cos now Mum says
Mum:
Yesterday was a nice walk, by all accounts, but there are no pics. They (Dad and the Hounds) went down to the Ping Pong Park, and bounced about playing Truffle Hound, but he forgot the camera.
Today, was a disaster! The dishwasher pump has broken down, and Dad spent most of the morning trying to fix it - with no success. Then we both had to scoot out to work this afternoon, leaving Their Majesties in charge - with no walk!!! As you can imagine, this wasn't popular. So there w
Cato: It was a really cold day, and Mum and Dad decided that me and Tara needed sausages! So we went and sausaged and then had a promenade walk. It was very short, on account of it being very cold and blowy, and us not having coats, and Tara doing a shivery thing.
Don't we look COLD?
Mum says it was lunchtime, but you can see how low the sun is, and how blueblueblue the sky is.
Tara:
Look! That is me and Dad and Cato. I am sniffing the lamppost an
Cato: no walk! and it wozn't even raining! But we did do stuff with Mum. We aren't usually allowed in the understairs cupboard. It is all sniffy in there. Really interesting! There are boxes. And tools. And the sniffy floor mop stuff. And we got behind the bin. We never get behind the bin!
we helped Mum work on our new beds too. We got sawdust on us when she used the buzzy saw. We walked through the sawdust and trampled it EVERYWHERE. We stood next to the crates so she could
Cato:
It was VERY exciting. We had to get up early, cos Mr Roof was due before breakfast! And Mum and me went out to do a last poo pick up. Good thing we did too, cos Mr Roof and his friend Mr Hat came early. And they opened the back gate. And we got to meet them. But then we had to come inside and not get in the way. Not that we would have. Mr Hat said he wanted to take me home with him. And Mr Roof laughed at Tara's topknot. I liked them both.
For some reason the cat flap s
Cato:
We had to get up early and go out with Dad, to see AuntieLesleyGroomer.
She is very nice, and she gives us nice treats. But she also gives us b**hs, and chops off all our hair. And Mum isn't there.
She has to do Tara first, cos otherwise Tara just whines, so I have to watch it all happening to her, and know that it is going to happen to me too...
But then Mum and Dad picked us up and gave us breakfast, and put our jumpers on - cos it was really cold now I am bald. An
Cato:
It was a street walk today. And then the field. Tara was pulling on the lead, and Mum made her slow down and walk beside her and stop being so silly. Mum says we haven't been getting enough on-street-practice wotever that is. so we will have more of it.
We met a nice lady and her Staffordshire Bull Terrier, who was lovely and gentle and sniffy. But we couldn't do a proper walk, with sniffs up people's drives and in their gardens. It was a bit disappointing really.
