Christmas is coming and no doggies are visiting right now, it's the calm before the storm. The visiting and partying of the humans start happening about the 15th of the month and the visiting of many doggies at Aunt Kate's Pampered Pooches starts about that same time. We will have many, many doggie visitors over the Christmas and New Year Holidays.
When we shop for presents for Santa to leave under the tree there will be 12 little presents for the visiting doggies too. When the presents are opened the visitors will be opening chew sticks and sheepskin teddy bears with squeakers inside. There will only be three humans here Christmas morning opening presents from Santa but there will be 12 doggies and one regal, yellow striped cat named Chester. Chester doesn't just tolerate dogs he thinks they are great fun. He does practice certain caution when we have many visitors. When he comes into a room his nose and eyes peek around the corner first and then the rest of the body tip toes quietly behind. At the first opportunity he jumps with one strong, agile leap onto the top of the computer cabinet where he sits amid the angels and peruses the room for danger. When he is sure that who ever is visiting doesn't think it is major sport to chase and bark at cats he joins the crowd for the pleasures of the evening entertainment. One thing he is always sure of is the doggies will go to bed before he does and he will have all night to have the run of the house by himself. What great fun it is to live with the four legged visitors and residents of Aunt Kate's Pampered Pooches.
When we all go to bed, I often chuckle as these little furry friends arrange themselves on Peter's and my beds all cuddled down together. I may be single in my old age but I never have to worry about being alone in a "cold and lonely bed" not with all my warm, friendly visitors. What fun.
Santa may enjoy coming into this household so much that he doesn't want to leave.
And may you have as much fun as we are having around here getting ready for the jolly old elf again this year.
