The Adventures of Boo Berry Betty and TLC Cai-Cai on Friday—- COWS OUT! HORSE OUT!, Friday, December 19, 2025

Mom has been having adventures without Boo and me.

I can’t say I really wanted to be with her on those treks.

First, two of the cows on the place figured out how to jump into the dry canal, and scrabble out onto the other side—which happens to belong to someone else.

Then they ran here and there and everywhere.

The Rancher’s Wife came down to help—horse and three cow dogs.  In about 20 minutes, the cows were up, the gates secure, the horse and dogs loaded up and headed up the road to home.

Mom says Cow Horses and Cow Dogs are amazing to watch.  And the rancher, herself.

Then the next morning, one of the horses that lives with us.  Decided she needed a boyfriend and jumped clear over the fence into the cows.
Guess what —No Boyfriend there.

That took Mom to walk T’Atat and LaVerne into the barn/corral and Dad to come behind with Glory.

Of course, nothing is ever E.A.S.Y, but still everyone got in and fed and watered—whew!

I heard Mom and Dad talking about everything when they came into the house.

I told Boo Berry what they said.  Boo Berry…our fearsome, Austrian Shepherd sighed with relief,  “I’m so glad, I’m not a cow dog.”

I just stared at her.  Really, I thought.  Your breed IS cow dog.

Oh, well.

The Adventures of Boo Berry Betty and TLC Cai-Cai on Friday—- Walking in a Winter Wonderland, Friday, December 12, 2025

COME ON, KIDS!!!

Let’s head out.  I want to go for a walk in an amazing

Land of color.

So off we went, Mom, Boo Berry, and I.

Mom was right—the world was pink, and red, and gold….

It was AMAZING!!

The Adventures of Boo Berry Betty and TLC Cai-Cai on Friday—- Snow! Snow! Snow!, Friday, December 5, 2025

TLC and I don’t like the snow.

Nope!  Too wet.  Too Cold!

Also, neither one of us is taller than the snow.

The birds are having a hard time, too.

Mom keeps the feeders full, but the snow covers everything up.

So out she goes to fix them….I go with her.

TLC looks at us like we are STUPID!

The Adventures of Boo Berry Betty and TLC Cai-Cai on Friday—- Sing a Song, Sing a Song, November 28, 2025

HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLF!
HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!

Mom and I were outside.  It was the dark time.

No Moon.

I had to pee….Yes, I did.

Suddenly, Mom and I heard

COYOTES!!!

They are back! (Click on the blue link to hear how they sound)

I sang back to them a little tiny bit, then they sounded closer.

Mom told me, “Boo, Stop That!  You aren’t big enough or strong enough to hold your own!”

Then she swooped down, grabbed me up, and took me into the house.

Shish!

Boo Berry Betty

P.S.  That is short for postscript.  Meaning I’m adding something else on to this:  TLC was already in the house.  Mom says he is no fool.

I wonder what she means by that?!

The Adventures of Boo Berry Betty and TLC Cai-Cai on Friday—- MOM! Come with US!!!, Friday, November 21, 2025

MOM!!!!! TLC yelled.

MOM!!! Boo Berry yelled.

“I’m here! I’m here!”  Mom replied.

“Let’s go for a walk!!” We pranced and danced around her.

“Walk? You want to go on a walk?” Mom asked us.

“Oh, yes!”

 

Boo Berry zoomed ahead.  TLC dashed right in behind her.

“Okay!  We are off!”

We exploded onto

the farm with Mom.

“Home again, Home again….whew! I need a nap!” TLC puffed

“Me too,” Boo Berry confirmed.

“Come in, kids, it is time to take a nap. Come in, Boo Berry”, Mom invited.

So in we went.

Happy, content. Satisfied!

Chapter Ten

“Hey, Boo,” I meowed at Boo Berry.  “Let’s go outside.  I heard something out the bedroom window last night while everyone was sleeping.”

“Outside?!?!” Boo Berry questioned.

 

“Yes, outside.  Come on, Dad is heading outside, and we can go with him.”  I bolted to the kitchen door.

“Okay, if Dad is going, I will go.” Boo Berry jumped up and headed toward the kitchen door just as Dad made it there.

We dashed out.  Whew.  Made it.  Dad didn’t like how we tangled into him and each other, but, oh well, what the heck, we got out!

“Head over to the west side of the yard, Boo. That’s where I heard ‘stuff’.” I dashed over to the west side of the yard.

“YES!”  I stopped and smelled.  “YES!”

“I can smell it too!” Boo exclaimed. “DEER! Wow!  BABY DEER!
Too bad Mom and Dad can’t see these little creatures.  I’ll bet they would like to see them.”

“Well, actually, I WOULD like to see them!” Boo Berry muttered to herself.

“What would you do if you did see them?” I asked Boo, Would you bark at them?”

“Ah, hum, aaaaahhhhhhhh, well, probably not.” Boo looked at me rather sheepishly.

“BUT I might, er, maybe, possibly could growl.”

“That would work.  I think I would hide.”

“HIDE! I could hide! YES! I could hide…INSIDE!! Boo Berry made a dash for the back door.

Lucky Boo, Mom was just coming out.

Boo dashed right in behind Mom, and off they went to do whatever.

Me.  Well, I have things to do and stuff to see.

Thanks for reading.  See Ya around sometime.

Chapter Nine

 “MOM!” Boo Berry howled. “MOM!”

“What are you screaming about?” I asked as I trotted up to see what was going on with Boo.

I want in.

Why?

‘Cause I’m outside and I want inside.

Why?

It’s Outside.

So, nothing’s wrong with the outside.  Outside is big, fun, and really exciting.

That’s exactly why.

Oh, Boo, you are such a scared dog.

No, I’m not.  I just like being inside better.

MOM!!!! Boo Berry Screamed.

What’s going on, Mom said, walking up to the house.

Oh, it’s that dog; she wants in.

MOM! MOM! MOM! Boo Berry jumped around and bounced this way and that.

In Boo Berry?  Mom asked

Okay, I’m ready to go in.  Do you want in, TLC?  Mom bent down and gave me a pet.

Hum, let me think about it, I purred.

Okay.  I replied.  I guess so.

Chapter Eight

“Hey, Boo!  COME HERE!”  I yelled

“BOO!”

“I’m here.  Here!  I’m here.”

“Stand right there while I jump over here on the cabinet.  Stand still.  Don’t move.”

“Okay, doaky”

WHAP!!

I knocked off Boo’s dog treats, the whole sack opened up, and scattered dog treats EVERYWHERE!

“WOW!!!” Boo Yelled! “WOW!”

“Get how many you can and scram, I hear Mom coming!”

Boo grabbed four bone treats and headed to her dog bed. FOUR!

Good girl.

Oh, Hi, Mom.  I purred.

“TLC! WHAT DID YOU DO?” Mom asked in dismay.

“Nothing, purr, purr, purr.”

Mom just sighed and started picking everything up.  I guess Boo Berry has had her treats for a few days now, Mom muttered to herself.

“TLC, get down off there. What were you doing?  Trying to get yourself a treat?”  Mom picked me up and put me on the floor.

“That is really naughty, Kitty.”

Heeheheheheh.  I laughed.  While I watched Mom pick up everything.

Then I started rubbing and head butting Mom….purring, of course.

“Oh, you were trying to get yourself a treat.” Well, sigh, I guess you can have some kitty candy.

Mom reached over and took the top off the jar and gave me KITTY CANDY!

Who is the smartest of them all!

ME!!!

Chapter Seven

Did you see that Blog Post about those silly pink cowboy hats!?!?!?

Stupid, if you ask me!

Just plain dumb.

Who wants to wear a cowboy hat?  And a pink, sparkly hat on top of that!?

How could I even walk about in PINK!  Or Sparkles? Or a HAT!!!

Mom is not very bright.  I don’t care if I look cute and even more handsome.

There is not a single way I could sneak up on a squirrel nest, or pounce on grasshoppers/lizards/snakes with a HAT on!  The idiot thing would fall right off and scare everyone, me included!

“I don’t understand, TLC”, Boo Berry looked at me with that dumb hat on, puzzlement in her eyes, “I feel rather dashing.”

Actually, more than dashing—I feel downright UPTOWN.

Why, if Mom would take me to town, I’m sure the whole wide world would LOVE seeing me in my hat and sunglasses.

Pink on pink on SPARKLE!!”

See, I told you—she is easily pleased, that dog.

Sigh!
