Indy's Day at the Vet

Indy had her yearly checkup and vaccines this weekend, she was a pretty good girl. Indy has lost 0.5 lbs since June which isn't the best, she does need to lose a pound or so because apparently that isn't all loose skin around shoulders! Right now she is 11.4 lbs.
We also found that she has a twisted jaw, on her lower jaw there is an over bite and an under bite and she also has a lot of twisted teeth. The Dr says it is because she has so many teeth crammed into her little mouth. What it does mean is that we will need to start brushing her teeth (and Gus's too!) and in the future she will need a teeth cleaning and perhaps a few pulled.
We also talked about Indy's left back leg, she has a luxating patella and so far it is doing ok. She has less muscle on that leg so we are going to find out some extra exercises she can do to build it back up. Indy had her nails cut as a well and surprisingly she did very well!! The tech gave her a chewie for the car ride home and of course she had a few treats from the cookie jar!

I wonder...


I am almost wondering if this blog should be renamed The Adventures of Gus because I swear in the short 2 years that I have had him, he has gotten into way more things/trouble/adventures then Indy or the cats have!
This weekend Gus somehow managed to get a dozen sugar cookies off the kitchen counter (Not a clue how.. unless a cat knocked it off). He ate them all Saturday evening and was fine when we got home from errands.

Sunday was a different story, he was very sick from both ends (sorry!) and while outside on a potty break so I could clean up inside, he proceeded to lay down on the wet grass in the rain and wouldn't come inside.
He spent most of the day shivering under a pile of blankets until late afternoon when he perked right up. All we did was mention kibble, he is completely fine now thankfully. And hopefully he will stay that way.

I don't know.....

We were using the step ladder the other day and had to go out to run some errands so we left it in the kitchen. When we came home, Misfit was sitting there, staring at it.
He sat there for a good 10, 15 minutes; not sniffing or licking or anything. Just staring.
He baffles me sometimes.

(Gus was embarrassed and in trouble with the garbage can lid, we came home and he was in the window wearing it so I had to stay outside until I stopped laughing. He was after I don't know what... since that garbage can only had paper garbage and sticker backings but he left the room a mess.)

Wordless Wednesday - Stuck in the garbage pail lid.


(The little bugger got into the garbage can in my scrapping room.)

Happy Halloween!!!

My pumpkins this year are Jack Skeleton and Oogie Boogie from The Nightmare Before Christmas. I drew them freehand before carving.
Indy as Boo the Ghost. Impressed huh??

And Gus the Moo Cow! He doesn't mind his outfit that much at all.

Happy Halloween everyone!!

Meet our new friend...

Meet Bella the puggle! She is 3 years old and belongs to one of the girls on my hubby's ball team. Bella is so sweet and cute and she howls just like a beagle!
She gets along fabulously with Gus and Indy, lots of kisses and wrestling.
Bella loves playing with the balls too, I have been bringing one for each of them but the only one who likes that idea is Indy, don't screw around with her green squeaky ball!
Gus likes to go after whoever is closest with the ball. Neither Indy or Bella share.
Gus doesn't like being so far away from me, but he was harassing Bella a bit too much so he got to stand back with my sister.
(And no Bella isn't named after Twilight.. lol I had to ask).
