We recently discovered that our cat, Milo, loves to be dressed up. That is, he doesn’t resent it very much. Okay, fine, he doesn’t hate it and tolerates it more than ten seconds, which could indicate ‘love’ for a cat. Anyway, Milo was dressed to the nines this week, all while sitting in a tiny wicker rocking chair with a doll blanket on his ‘lap’. Amazingly enough, he never objected to any of this treatment and we all came out of this photoshoot with no bloodshed. Maybe in all the spare time I have (HA), I’ll make a cat calendar. Then again, probably not.
Later in the week, Nancy ‘remembered’ an old trick of hers: Bring us the dog food bowl and whack us on the legs with it until we fill it. It’s cute when it really is ‘cookie time’, but can get slightly annoying when, thirty minutes after she eats, she is already beating your ankles with her bowl. Still, I have to say she is a smart dog who knows what’s important in life. (FOOD)
We ended the week by putting a chicken in a dog harness and seeing what would happen. Things can get monotonous in the country sometimes, so you have to spice it up a little. As you can see, Rae did very well for his first walk. Really, it’s much like ‘walking’ a cat, which is to say, you put it in a harness, pray it doesn’t go berserk and scratch out your eyes, and follow it wherever it wants to go. Again, no bloodshed other than at the 0:11 mark, my child is attacked by fireants. We awarded Rae with a cabbage leaf covered in baby cabbage worms, and yes, he ate it down to the rib.
Have a fabulous pre-Thanksgiving weekend friends! I’ll be decluttering more, bathing dogs, and probably walking chickens.
My Little Country 
I think you have too much time on your hands. 😀 Facebook free and all.
On the other hand those photos of your cat are prize worthy. Especially the third one. Hilarious!
LOL! Yes, and I had to get back on (stupid) Facebook to communicate with a ladies group that I help to run. ARRRRG. But I have been staying off of my feed, which is what leads to the most time wasting/anxiety/aggravation.
I know; I love that third picture! And kept his little paws crossed the entire time!
BWA HA HA! No way to cat dressing, I’d lose a lot of blood and maybe my life too. I’d have much better luck trying to walk a chicken or two on a leash. Awesome good funny! Thank you. xo kim
Lol! That would happen with one of our cats for sure! Milo and Esther don’t mind it, but Eleanor would take your face off!
Oh i love the cat pictures!!
Thank you! He is such the ham!
Ya’ll do know how to have fun out in the country. Loved this post. At the time my friend was leash walking her chickens, it boggled my mind and wound up on my blog.
Lol! Thank you. We try to have fun!
Oh this is THE BEST! I left this up on my screen all day because I smile every time I see Milo. Your blog is really fun!!
Thank you! I wish I could show how funny he is. I’ll try to remember to take a video. He was a bottle baby kitten. Loves people!
