That's about the time I put Mr. Potato on his treadmill.

Oliver is about to get himself permanently booted from the bedroom at night. I stopped counting at 6 wake up calls but I never woke up enough to actually get up and remove him so that's on me. Either way, I should have had the best sleep of my life last night (gave myself tons of sleeping time) but it was fragmented so I'm not a happy camper this morning.

Tiny Dog and I overslept today. So when we woke up, the yard guys were doing their thing, and I didn't want to take Tiny Dog out while they were here. (She just barks and barks - she doesn't like lawn mowers and trimmers and blowers and those kinds of things.) She was very good - she just waited with me while I did other stuff inside. She did occasionally growl when they came close to the doors and windows, but she settled down as soon as I acknowledged her. As soon as they were gone, I took her out. She was doing the pee pee dance by then!

Kitty Diva has found a new place to sleep on my bed. We may have to renegotiate - the middle of the bed is kind of in my way. Unless she wants to be snuggled all night (which she does not - I think she gets too hot), she's going to have to move back to the other side of the bed.

My littlest pug ( Rat-Ting) decided that she could and would roll Daddy out of bed. It took multiple tries but eventually I woke up... falling onto the dog steps , looked up and there she was... snorfling at me with that evil little I got ya good grin. The other 2 snored right through it. PUGS! Oh and being the pug parent of the century, I fed them turkey loaf for dinner which Rat decided... to bark at me for, chew my ankle then proceed to rip my slipper in half when she didn't get fed on time.

We all know who rules this house.

His current focus is interval training.

Oliver went to the vet and all was okay at first until the tech started to clean his ears. She overstimulated him and I saw the seizure coming too late. She ran to get help and I kept him from falling onto the floor. It was a really bad one. I'd been hopeful since it was just a few days shy of one month since the last one and I honestly think he wouldn't have had one if the ear cleaning was done like the last time but the vet and tech I had last time weren't there and this tech did it completely different. Now we all know.

It's unfortunate that Oliver suffered for our mistake. That won't happen again. He's doing his impersonation of a camel with his lump of fluids on his back and side and is laying in the bed he only lays in when he really feels like shit. I failed as his advocate today but he still looked for me when they were stabbing and poking and prodding him so I think he may forgive me.

No medicine for him tonight. He's had enough and still has the wraparound bandage on his leg from the anti-seizure shot they gave him.

I think they are over me. They both gave me the side eye as I brought in a plate of broccoli and strawberries to eat. Where is the good stuff? The burgers? The pepperoni pizza? The chicken? All the rest of the stuff they beg for and I share with them. They think I am some kind of imposter.

My dog LOVES fruits and vegetables. My mother was stunned by this, since she assumes he would love the crap she gives him, rather than fruits and veggies. That is all he gets from me though, besides his dog food.

She knows that her giving him the unhealthy stuff drives me nuts, but she thinks she is "just being a grandmother".

Fortunately, he doesn't stay with her super often.

He is laid out between my knees in the recliner. I think he might have a tummy ache. He has eaten everything I have today. He had grits and butter and cheese, bacon, popcorn, and fat off the wings. He doesn't usually get people food, so he thinks he's top dawg today

Oh, gosh, Gemme. I am so very, very sorry. He was really hanging in there. He loves you and knows you are in his corner! He sees it and he feels it.

Lechelco, the key to this whole treadmill thing is that if you turn it on, they WILL walk. What is the option? To fly off the back?

I know cats don't need exercise like dogs. Please, don't get me wrong, I am very active with my dog. He is a Jack Russell though (needs BIG TIME exercise), and I can't walk him long distances every day.
