The owl has left the tree that it has been living in the last two weeks. And, guess what! Some squirrels are in the yard. I like the squirrels. If they do not run I do not go near them, but if they run.....OH BOY! we have a fun chase.

Here are photos of my Magnificent Seven. They are shown in order of 'appearance' on that Big Day! You can click on the photos to enlarge, click on their name to see other photos of them.

Heidi came home yesterday. She can not walk, yet. A lot of time is being spent with her. At first, I did not like that, I like to get attention. But, I understand that she needs extra care, just like my puppies do.

Speaking of puppies, and who isn't these days, Gia came by yesterday (YAY Gia! I love Gia) and all the puppies had their nails cut.

ZigZag is a bit of a show off, evidently. Here he is showing off his manicure! You can click on the photo to see a larger image.

What a cuddly boy!

Tonight we had surprise visitors, I love surprises, especially when it is people! They really came to visit Heidi, but I got some attention, too. Remember the little girl I mentioned the other day? Her name is Maddy. She made Heidi a get well card! Maddy is only 2 or 3 years old. I hope my puppies grow up to be as precious as Maddy is! Maddy and her mom brought the card over in person and visited Heidi. My foster mom read the card to Heidi and Heidi paid attention. Heidi doesn't say much but I could tell she felt honored to be the center of attention.

Geisha opened her eyes today and Abbey is on her way. My foster mom picked up Geisha and fell in love with her eyes. My foster mom says she feels privileged to be the first person that Geisha saw. I didn't tell my foster mom that just cause Geisha's eyes are open that doesn't mean she can really see, yet.

Okay, this is pretty exciting. Guess what? Someone wants me! Yup! ME! Someone put in an 'application' and maybe they will become my family. A family of my own! Imagine! Oh, how exciting. I am not supposed to get excited, yet, tho. See, the family has a cat. If I don't get along with cats I can't live there. I may be going for a visit to the house just to see if the cat and I like each other. I hope so! Of course, I can not go live there until my babes are ready but how nice to think that I may have a real home of my own.

I got very sick early this morning (Pyometra). I had to go to the hospital. They kept me there all day and gave me fluids and antibiotics. I was very distraught but I feel alot better now that I have some meds in me and I am home where I am supposed to be! As soon as I got home I rolled around on the rug.... ahhhh, love that doggy smell!

Once I am spayed I will never have to worry about this happening again.

The vet is going to call my foster mom in the morning to see how I did during the night. I will go see the vet again on Saturday, just to be sure all is well. I hope they don't keep me again. I loved seeing all the people, I just loved that part. But I missed being home with my family.

While I was gone, my babies were fed by my foster mom and foster grandma. They were SO happy to see me come home to take over the job!

I went to the vet again early this morning to be sure I am doing okay. I am. I am eating and walking and loving people. I met some kittens while at the vets office. They are 'homeless' and they sit in a cage together all day. They stuck their paws out to me - but I could not offer them a home, I don't have one either! They did not even have a string to play with.

My babes are all staggering around, silly little tykes. They have a box with openings in it, in their pen with them. My foster mom said that she has to put different things in with them for them to do and play with so that they are well adjusted. As if my angels need any help being well-adjusted! I don't mind, though, cause I know my foster mom just wants to be sure that these babies do very well in their forever homes.
