I'm dog sitting.

[missmiah]

Seriously, next time I decide to volunteer to help out someone, somebody should kick me in the knee. The bad one.

I had a plan. I moved Colonel Brandon's kennel to Captain's office, I separated out toys for both dogs, I put up the baby gate. Brandon was going to get the back half of the house, Cara would get the front half. The cats were going to have to fend for themselves, but they can jump the baby gate so I wasn't worried.

Turns out, so can Cara.


Poor Brandon, only wants to be left along to recover from his cooties in peace. Also he misses the Captain, which is why I put that snake in his collar as that is something Captain routinely does to torment the dog. Remember torment = love, kiddies.


Then there is the very eager, very quick, very much farther along on her course of antibiotics than my dog and therefore FULL OF ENERGY Cara, who thinks my cats are the bestest toys evah. The cats are less than thrilled. Roswell refuses to come out of my bedroom and Loki is probably spiraling into some sort of depressed rage against the world as I type.


Since the baby gate doesn't work, I had to give in and let them "mingle" against my better judgment. So far there haven't been any huge issues, but Cara is still having some "issues" involved with her paint/staple/OMG is that sofa foam? WTF has she been eating? incident and we haven't had to do dinner or pill time yet. Very much not looking forward to that.

So, two hours down - only five more days.

Sucks for you. Loki will commit murder or suicide by the end of two weeks at this rate...
