1st check on all fur-kids; feeding was a challenge this morning. Socks wanted to go into his house. Stubby jumped the fence and followed inside. I put Stubby outside but bolted back inside. Socks bolted out and I s\put Stubby back outside. I went in to get a cup of fresh kibble for Socks and Socks followed me back inside. This time Stubby didn’t follow.
*I called Stubby onto the porch, to which he came. Look-a-like was there, too. HE was a bit agitated for some reason. Stubby on the porch-rail with Look-a-like works well.

A sixteenth I speak if a maid is reluctant,
To wake her lust and desire;
I change the heart of the delightful woman,
Then to me her wishes turn.

OMGs…I laughed so hard! As previously noted, Stubby has taken ownership of the old green chair. However, it has no butt cushion because I need it with the new-to-me chair now in my living room. In an honest effort to make things a bit more comfortable for Stubby, I took a couple of old cloth tapestries, folded them in quarters, and placed them in the seat of the old green chair. Subsequently, I noticed Stubby lying back on the concrete. Well, okay, I thought, and removed the tapestries. Sure enough, Stubby was quick to regain his place on the green chair. Far be it from me to tell Stubby what’s more comfortable.
