World Wrestling

Barn-E, Stella

I can’t believe Barn-E the cat puts up with this rough play from Stella. No cat claws ever come out.

I do worry that someday Stella will hurt the cat, but so far, she knows how far she can go.

I’ve seen them sleeping in the same vicinity, not together, but close enough. I wonder if they will ever cuddle together.

Barn-E is a tough cat. I have scratches to prove that. I wonder why he’ll use his claws on me, but not the dog.

Right now, everyone is calm. That’s good because I have to catch up on my picture book writing class. The dog/cat wrestling is really distracting.

Until next time, that’s it from Sunnybook Farm.

Stella’s all tied up

Stella

My dog got a little tangled up…okay, I helped some.

Stella had half the old towel over her body and I flipped more over her.

Right now she’s upstairs, where she’s not supposed to be.

I guess I better get her down. …… Wait a minute! Stella just followed Barn-E the cat back downstairs. That saved me some steps.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.

A match between Car-E and Stella

Car-E, Stella

A lot of this match took place before I could grab my phone to record it.

I never thought Car-E would play with Stella, but he has relented and taken on the puppy.

The first time Car-E met Stella he used his claws to tell her to back off. Car-E never used his claws in this playful match.

Life is better here now that Car-E accepts Stella as a roommate.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.

Dog vs. hastas

dog, Stella

Stella joyfully grabbed at the hasta flower stems. As soon as they grew above the leaves, they were her newest dog toy.

Too bad, as she hopped up for the top of the stems, Stella flattened the plants.

Oh well, they will grow back. Hastas are hard to kill and Stella was having too much fun to stop her.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.

Short cat & dog video

animals, Barn-E, cats, dog, Stella

Sometimes Barn-E and Stella’s playtime sounds like they are bringing down the house. This video is pretty mild compared to those wild times.

Right now the house is quiet. I sent the cats upstairs and Stella is alone. She’s tearing up brown packaging paper for fun. Better that than anything important.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.
