TUESDAY 16th Feb: Pack walk (with Dad)


Crinkly

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 my bed and snore on his ankle, when he sits at his desk.  Tara always sits with Mum, angling for another brush.

This was our pack walk (in the small park with the fox):

The wilderness bit

Tree bark.  again.

Dad and us.  Have you noticed how Tara is always skipping and kicking her feet out like a puppy?  and how I walk like a grownup?

Mum says you should see this.  there are last year's tiny rosehips, and this year's new leaves.  she said something about the cycle of life.  Wotever that is.

An Arty Farty shot (this is wot Dad called it.  How do trees fart?)

Wouldn't you like to live in a house that had a window through the park fence, so the whole park was your garden?

 

Tara:

My turn!  This is me and Fox

who is missing an ear

and who has an even greener bum than we remembered.  It is all Cato's fault.  All that widdling.  I'm a girl, so I don't aim that high.

This is me drinking, and Cato waiting for a treat.  Please notice how WHITE i really am.  Not dirty and grimey at all?  Am I?  See?

And Mum says I can show you these.  She says they are the best bits!  And I get to show you cos I am the specialist one.  So there, Cato!

This is the first daffodil to flower in the WHOLE world!

And this is the first crocus.  I am afraid that after Mum took the photo I sniffed it.  It may be a little bit bent now.

And this is us after the walk.  Mum says that we are actually bright white, not dirty grey-yellow, and she blames the bad low energy light bulb, the camera, and the fact she forgot to edit the pic before posting.  She also says that if I was a little lady, and slept elegantly, you wouldn't be seeing my white bits at all.

So you won't notice my grimey belly, will you?  It is Spa Day on Friday, with Liver Treats, so you can see my tummy again, after that!

Oh, and that is the little blue elephant toy sticking out of Cato's bum, not a weird poo. Hahahaha!

Sidney:

Very cold.  I am visually checking my kingdom regularly.  The top of the wall walkway is often frosty.  I make sure the window is left open, just in case I need it.

There should be chicken served to compensate for this inconvenience, but last night was just the usual boring pap.  No crunch.  How am I going to maintain my fangs without bones to clean them.

The service around here is really appalling.  When the frost has gone, I will pop out and visit other catflaps and see what gourmet delights are available.

What a great day to walk in the park.... spring bulbs blooming, sun shining and life once again emerges from Mother Earth renewing herself..... Life's good.

What a Gorgeous walk day! Cato I Love those tree shots and I sure don't know about tree farts, maybe that's how they get those knots on them! :hysterical:

Tara honestly you look just like the fox statute, same pose, great job!! And I Love, love that you showed us the first daffodil and crocus, they are Beautiful! Gives me hope as I look at ice..! But sweetie I think you may need your own bed, looks like your brother takes up too much room and you're falling out! :judy:

ahh Sidney you almost have me in tears sweetie such a rough life you are having right now! But much better to stay safe and not get on that slippery stuff, it's scary and you'll just hurt your paw more. :throb: Missy

:coffee: You two are the luckiest paws in the world.........lovely walks almost everyday in such beautiful surroundings. I have to admit I never heard of tree fart....weird. Sure looks like spring is coming near you. My spring bulbs are showing signs of popping but hope they stay covered for a few more weeks. One sign of spring for us is the birds are starting to migrate north and they layover in our area for awhile. Love the pictures as always............

I love your park!  It is so beautiful there! Those two flowers just made me smile because they are so gorgeous!  Just a reminder that it won't stay cold for much longer.  Tara and Cato look so sweet taking their naps.  They must be seriously tired.  Sidney is so funny!

Such a pretty walk.......and such lucky people to live right where the park looks like their front yard.  I've always wanted to live on a golf course........not because either of us play golf but just because the lawns and landscaping are so lush and someone else does all the work.

Your Daddy sounds like he works policeman's hours.  Our Daddy used to be a policeman but that was eons ago.  He used to go to work after everyone else was in bed.....come home in the middle of the night for "dinner" and then go to bed when everyone else was up going to school and work.

We had some daffodils and suddenly the blossoms disappeared.  Mom had a hissy fit said !!SNAILS!! like the end of the world had come and put out some stuff to keep them away.

Tuesday's stormy walk took us right past a golf course.  Hilarious.  They were all out there, with their flat caps and golf bags, the first time we went past.

The second time (after the hail and sleet) the place was utterly deserted.  They had all scarpered for the 19th hole!

We laughed. 

Lightweights.  Fair weather golfers.  Hah!

Not like us, the idiots who walk their dogs without checking the weather forecast first! :roflmao::roflmao::roflmao:

I love your 'fox' park where you can walk and play with lots of things to investigate...

Poor Mr Fox, with his green widdle bum and the ear that has fallen off! But I love him, he's got character ? 

And look at you guys fast asleep in your bed.. Dreaming about your next adventure for sure. I wonder where you'll go next? 

Sidney, no bones?!? Well that's not good enough... Fancy some catnip? :D:roflmao:
