“Home again, home again, jiggity jog.”<\/p>\n
Reggie’s House (where we board the animals) opens at 8:00 am. \u00a0Bright and early.<\/p>\n
They do not charge you for another day as long as you pick up your animals by noon. \u00a0They’re good people. \u00a0We wanted to get there as close to opening as we could seeing as MFH (My Favorite Husband) had to work today and I wouldn’t be able to handle all three animals by myself.<\/p>\n
Off we drove to Reggie’s House at 8:15 am. \u00a0Reggie is only 4 miles from our house so it is convenient. \u00a0We were the only people there picking up this morning. \u00a0That was a good thing because Paxton (my pudgy puppy) is a whirlwind when he gets to come home.<\/p>\n
I walked in the door and Kali (one of our two cats) heard my voice. \u00a0She was in a back room.<\/p>\n
“Meow! \u00a0Meow! \u00a0MEOW!!!” \u00a0She said. \u00a0“Take me home!”<\/p>\n
MFH and I went into the back room with the kitty carriers. \u00a0There Kali and Castro were. \u00a0They were scratching at the doors of their “Kennels(?).” \u00a0They were very ready to go home.<\/p>\n
Kali was rubbing against her door. \u00a0She was purring. \u00a0She was happy to see us.<\/p>\n
Castro (our other kitty), was quite put out with us. \u00a0Why had we abandoned him? \u00a0He had been stuck in a cage for the past four days!!! \u00a0Didn’t we know he expected to be let in and out of the house whenever he wanted!?! \u00a0This was treason as far as he was concerned.<\/p>\n
MFH put Castro into his kitty carrier first. \u00a0Castro was an unhappy kitty.<\/p>\n
Kali went into her kitty carrier second. \u00a0She was purring up a storm. \u00a0She was going home and life was good.<\/p>\n
MFH took the cats out to the truck. \u00a0While he was doing that, I was collecting Kali’s things (she’s on meds).<\/p>\n
Now, it was time for Paxton.<\/p>\n
Clear a path!<\/p>\n
MFH stayed by the truck. \u00a0I opened the door of Reggie’s House and the kennel attendant went to Paxton’s kennel. \u00a0She opened his door and BAM!!!<\/p>\n
Out shot Paxton! \u00a0He did not pass “Go!” \u00a0He did not collect $200.00 (that’s because I had just given it to Reggie’s House to pay for them watching the three animals while we were gone). \u00a0He went straight to MFH and waited impatiently to be lifted into the back of the truck.<\/p>\n
MFH tried to pick up a wiggling 130 pound Boxer and put him into the back of the truck.<\/p>\n
We drove home. \u00a0Slowly. \u00a0Paxton was enjoying the sights as we drove the back roads coming home. \u00a0He was a happy puppy. \u00a0His mouth was flapping open from the wind as we drove along. \u00a0What a silly dog!<\/p>\n
As we got closer to the house, we had the dog in the back with an, “I’m a lucky dog” look on his face and two cats telling us of their distress because they were each stuck in a kitty carrier and riding in a truck.<\/p>\n
Boy, I am glad we live close to Reggie’s House! \u00a0HA!<\/p>\n
We finally got home. \u00a0MFH got Paxton out of the back of the truck. \u00a0Paxton made a bee-line for the house (after stopping to water the grass). \u00a0We carried the cats and Paxton’s stuffed bear into the house. \u00a0Now, all three animal are “sleeping it off.”<\/p>\n
Those three are so funny!<\/p>\n
It is great to be home! \u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
