Animal attraction

Bailey & Sugar are settling in nicely.  Sugar - never one to be friendly - has found a new place to hide.  She pretty much sleeps all day....she burrows her way between the comforter and sheet of our bed.  Whenever the doorbell rings, she will scurry to the master bedroom, knock all the pillows back & squeeze between Jim's pillows.  Come near her and you'll be sorry!

When the bed isn't taken, Bailey cuddles up to Jim's pillow.  If Sugar has already claimed her spot under the covers, Bailey will settle for a sunny spot in the master bedroom. 

Let it be known that if Bailey has claimed the bed, Sugar will NOT settle for a sunny spot.  Surprisingly, she goes straight into Garrett's room.  I'm always surprised to find her there because Garrett aggravates her non-stop.  He will pick her up and hold her.....even though she's hissing and growling the entire time!  Who knows, maybe she's planning to leave him a "liquid" present in his bed. 

Bailey is happy anywhere.  She's the first one to greet you when you come in and the last one to lay down at night.  She will patrol the perimeter of the entire house to make sure everyone is settled in and them she will crawl into her bed.  She has begun to audibly "pass wind" (from both ends).  She absolutely LOVES to play chase with Jim!  He will pretend to tickle her and she goes nuts.  Check it out....

The first time it rained after the move, both pets were mesmerized.  It hadn't rained in months before we left Texas.  We were still in Jim's corporate apartment when it started pouring.  Bailey and Sugar took turns checking it out. 



Because of the cooler weather, we leave the windows and doors open much more up here.  Sugar is getting braver each day about venturing outside.  She doesn't have her front claws so we have to keep a close eye on her.  Most of the time, she will sit at the door and peek out but we've caught her trolling around the garage and front porch a few times.

Bailey is LOVING the weather up here.  We installed an underground electric fence to keep her close to home.  She did really well with the training and never complains about wearing the collar.  The collar starts beeping when she gets too close to the "out of bounds" line.  She does an about-face and finds a comfortable spot to observe the neighborhood.  There have been several times when we forgot to put her collar on (especially in the mornings) and she still does great.  She only crossed over the perimeter one time and that was to visit Tucker....the cute little boy puppy across the street. I guess the zap was worth it!!  :)
