I MADE IT!!!
I have a home!
AGAIN!
YAY!!!
Mom has even taken me to the vet so I could have all my shots and wellness check up!
I am Good to go!
TLC is finally, and it does mean FINALLY, getting used to me being part and parcel of everything.
DAD IS MINE!!!
Mom loves on me all the time and I purrtalk to her!
Boo Berry and I are good friends!
HOME!!!
I am HOME!!!
Mellow-Yellow Mr. Hobbs, now known as Hobbie forever and ever!
I’m adjusting.
Sorta.
Mom is still MY Mom. Although she does seem to love and pet on that other cat.
She still picks me up, kisses me all over my face, brushes my fur, and has me sleep RIGHT BY HER!!! (And Boo Berry)
Dad seems to be Hobbs’ (Hobbie Hobbs is what Mom calls him) favorite. Hobbs sleeps right next to Dad.
Sometimes Hobbs and I rub noses.
I guess we are adjusting.
TLC
Yip! Yip! HooRay!
It’s Irrigation Time!!!
I LOVE this time of the year!
Boo Berry Betty Brown, FARM DOG!!!
I HATE THIS SEASON!!! Says,
TLC, Hobbs, and Boo Berry.
The Cottonwood tree is blooming.
What that means is the blooms have to push off the shell as they open up.
That shell is yellow and sticky.
It sticks to your fur, your paws, and YOUR TAIL!
What a messy season this is!
Hobbs, Boo Berry, and TLC
It’s been over-the-top busy here.
Mom, Dad, and Boo in and out of the yard
Tractors, four-wheelers, and you name it.
The mice and other rodents are
starting to mingle with all the other creatures,
opening up new THINGS TO DO!!
Then the sun sets
and we all come into the house,
eat something light, and bam—
out for the night!
Boo Berry, TLC, and Hobbs
“Let’s go, Boo Berry!” Mom said.
Okay, doaky I ran to her.
She picked me up, sat me in my work seat, put on my glasses and my coat, and we were off!
SPRING WORK is FUNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!
Boo Berry
TLC and
Hump —- you couldn’t get us on that thing for nothing.
Hobbie Hobbs
Two days of WIND!
And more WIND!
And cold!
BRRRR!
But no rain or snow here on the farm, which all of us say
YAY!
Mom says: “Look, the mountains are white! YAY! White is good!”
Let it stay in the mountains, please.
We like plain ol’ dirt!
WAIT!!!
The SNOW CAME!!!
Oh! Yes! It DID!!!
TLC, Boo Berry, and Hobbie Hobbs
Hey!
You cats!
We can’t go out on the farm (again). Mom, Dad, and our hooman sister let the EQUINES OUT!
THOSE THINGS ARE SCARY!
BIG!
And they can stomp on you!
Boo Berry
Finally, I think we are making headway!
TLC is settling down to not be so mean.
Mr. Hobbs is Mellow! Real Mellow. So Dad is now calling him Mellow Yellow.
I tried it out—Mellow Yellow Hobbs. I guess it will work.
After all, TLC and I have LONG names: TLC Cai-Cai,
and Boo Berry Betty
So why not Mellow Yellow Hobbs Brown?
So, there ya have it. We are making headway—
which is good, because now that the cows are gone, Dad has started the winter farm repair/maintenance work.
Boo Berry
Despite being thrown away.
Despite not knowing how to eat and not finding anything to eat for days and days and days
Despite being locked in Dad’s shed until my backbone met my tummy
Despite TLC
I am finally! Finally Home!
Life is good!
I have hoomans in my life again.
I have a dog I can love again!
All the food I want to eat
Whenever I want to eat it.
A lap to lie on
Mom to brush and pet me
A soft bed to sleep on
I get to go outside!!! Mom says I must have never gone outside in all my many years of my former life, because I don’t know how to use the big outdoors kitty box. I have to come in and use the inside kitty box.
No matter! Everything is good now.
I’m home!
