Patches/Puma now has almost complete unlimited access to the house. She has behaved quite well. I am trying not to have convulsions over the claw marks in my leather sectional. Trying is the operative word here. But, all in all, I have enjoyed our newest addition. I have moved Fred to the front porch to give him some fresh air and Butterscotch seems to have adjusted to life on her own, unattended in our backyard. Between my kiddos, hubby and the wildlife around my house I am content... So why do I offer to babysit the Westerberg Family dog, Boone? To make my children happy. That is the reason. That is all. He is a nice enough dog, but considering he hates Pat, is scared of all things and leaves large droppings in my backyard, I am not sure why I put myself through these "slumber parties". Poor Patches has been locked up in Maddy's room for so long we decided to let her out to see if she and Boone could tolerate each other.
Like I said, Boone is afraid of all things, including a kitten about the size of his foot. He thinks no one sees him hiding under the table.
Well, Puma found him - see her paw going in for the kill on the right side of the picture??
Between the large dog and the small cat, I would have to bet that the cat would win any match. We have always insisted she is part Puma...
