On this particular day, it was obvious I had been neglecting my furbabies!!!

OKay so the story is...

I take my furkids outside in our backyard (fenced in) about every other day so they can enjoy the great outdoors. But... I had noticed that even with the frontline plus (which has always worked great) I noticed fleas on Garfield!! So I called my vets office to see if maybe they had given me a bad batch of Frontline. I was told that from all of the rain we had been having (everyday for 2 weeks) that the fleas were horrible!! I was told to spray down my yard with SEVIN. So I did. But I couldn't let the babies out for 4 days (I wanted to be sure it was safe).
Well I finally let them back out yesturday and MAN WAS IT OBVIOUS I HAD BEEN NEGLECTING THEM!!!


First, Garfield climbed high into a tree and was stuck for atleast 45 minutes!!! He meowed and meowed at me. I stood on a chair and tried to get him to jump into my arms... NOPE!! So I took a few pics....









Well after I threatened to call the fire department (he loves drama) he decided that was a little too much drama for him and came down.




My pretty Lilo watching the doggy on the other side of the fence....





Then she decided to scratch the tree... which is a whole lot better than meowmys sofa!!!




Next up is my little princess Petals....you all know she is my little poser. If she sees the camera pointed in her direction.... she poses








And I have a video of Petals and Lilo play fighting in the grass but I will have to add it later.

Petals is quite the camera hog! How cute! I love the pic of her walking on the yard ledge.

And Garfield... He looks like he really likes the view, but seems to be a bit forlorn for solid ground.

Your kitties are gorgeous!

Great pictures, your photography is excellent. Garfield looks like he really enjoyed taunting you in the tree.

Well... before Garfield was fixed... he tried to ecscape. But now none of them do. They just enjoy their yard time. I actually a fence that goes all around the house and a gate door on each side of the house that seperates the back fenced yard from the front fenced yard. Its pretty neat. You can see in the video of Petals and Lilo that they run past the door. Sometimes I let them have the front and back to play in....
But I never have a problem with them trying to ecscape.

Isn't spring a glorious time of year?

Your pictures of Garfield, Lilo and Petals are adorable.

look like they are having a ball.

The photos and video really show how much they were enjoying themselves! I'm amazed that they stay in the yard. We have a 7-foot fence on two sides of the yard, and Jamie has on occasion slipped out of his harness and scaled the fence in about 2 seconds.
