Sleeping the summer away


Here are a few recent shots of Sammie and Cash sleeping the summer away. They like to be close at times, but they also need their space. Cash is definitely more active than Sammie, who could sleep all day and night. However, after his spazzing episodes, he crashes and doesn't wake up for anything unless the doorbell rings, and then he gets scared and hides under the bed. He's a great watch kitty! :)


Since we can't trust Cash on our back porch, he likes to spend hours in the garage on top of the car. I know it's hot out there too, but he loves it. In honor of the Fourth of July, I thought about dressing Cash up as George Washington and Sammie as Betsy Ross, but they weren't feeling it.


On a bittersweet note, Dolly gained a kitty friend in heaven this week. Our good Florida friends, Brad, Mandy, Ryan and feline sister Kelsey, had to say good-bye to their beloved cat Cali, who had kidney disease like Dolly. We know how hard it has been on them, and they continue to be in our thoughts and prayers. It's a comforting thought that Dolly was there to welcome Cali, and they are now chasing birds, squirrels, and lizards together. (Sammie hates fireworks and wants to make sure there aren't any in heaven since Dolly didn't like them either. I assured her there are only soothing trumpets.)

Speaking of fireworks, Happy Fourth of July! We're having BBQ chicken, Bobby Flay's grilled sweet potato salad, grilled veggies and ambrosia for dessert. Sammie and Cash get a canned salmon and shrimp feast! :)
