Nice couch. How is it holding up to cat? It looks sturdier than my lovely couch.

It's an Ikea futon that we're using temporarily until we get a real couch. Sturdy and very claw-resistant, assuming that I trim Refurb's claws every couple of weeks. She doesn't scratch it, she just climbs it since she can't jump that high:

I was getting a "THE SLEEPER HAS AWAKENED" vibe. Considering it's Refurb, maybe it's more like "WHY HAVE YOU AWAKENED THE SLEEPER GIVE ME BELLYRUBS AND TREATS".

I don't want any more damned cats but one of my greatest wishes at present would be to get a young cat that actually liked my dog rather than tolerating him

It's rather funny that Refurb happens to be a dilute tortie, since she's not the first "tortie" that I've had in the house. Actually, she's the third in the house right now, though the others aren't the feline type.

Today she got to meet one of the others: Georgia the Russian Tortoise.



This is the first time I've been comfortable doing this. I used to take the tortoises out all the time, but I haven't since even before I got Tycho well over a year ago. However, these two furballs have proven to be very predictable and reliable so I was confident today... but also very close by just in case. Tycho was too busy sleeping to care to visit, but Refurb had to see what the hell this thing was.



Just for background's sake: I got Georgia back in high school, maybe 11th grade or so. That was about 7 years ago now, and she was this size when I got her so I conservatively figure her to he 10 years old, though maybe older. She's a cutie.

But all adorable things must end, and she's got tortoise poo poo to do. Over to the left.



Just a quick visit, no need to overstress Georgia. Maybe I'll bring my other Russian Tortoise out next time, too, but that's another thing for another day.

Dog bath day! Which is generally not good news for the dog, I guess...




Refurb watched the entire time he was outside drying off.




"Oh look how warm and dry I am inside, ooooh it's sooooo comfy"




He's not a fan of being wet.

Butters does this after bath time but I think it's a sign of him being excited to be clean, as much as it is him trying to dry off.

Took Tycho out to a nearby restaurant that has a dog-friendly patio. He insisted on sitting in a chair.



They even brought out a water bowl and ice for him :3: There's really not enough dog-friendly places around here.

Man poo poo like this makes me wish that my dog was not a neurotic ball of freak out, because I'd love to take her to restaurants and have her sit in chairs with me. Super cute!
