Animal ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿฑ

  • Some friends recently redid their backyard and deck…and invited us over to see it mostly complete, as well as enjoy a glass of wine and treats.

    A dog reclines on an outdoor pet bed next to a plush toy, on a deck with stone-built structures and fencing, at dusk.

    The sunset was lovely…the very excitable pup was slightly medicated. ๐ŸŒ… ๐Ÿ• ๐Ÿ“ท

  • We said farewell to our furry house guest tonight, she’s heading back to her Daddy’s house (he was out of town for work). ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ•

    A dog is sleeping on a plush bed in a home interior, with furniture and a rug visible in the background. The text 'lostinhaste.com' is overlaid at the bottom right.

    She was rather sleepy when I took this photo, we’d just been on a three and a half mile walk. ๐Ÿšถ๐Ÿฅฑ ๐Ÿ“ท

  • Walked in the bedroom to find a lazy boy taking a nap… ๐Ÿ“ท ๐Ÿˆ ๐Ÿ˜ธ ๐Ÿฅฑ

  • ๐Ÿ“ท April 2024 Micro.Blog photo challenge, Day 1: Toy

    A small dog rests beside a cinched plush toy resembling a log, in a room with a record collection.

    Russell was never all that fond of them but he would occasionally get a toy; he absolutely destroyed the squirrels inside the log. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿถ #mbapr

    Note: This post was backdated, as I missed the first day.

  • A dear friend of mine would have turned 42 today, if she hadnโ€™t passed away during the Pandemic. Rest in peace, sweet Carolโ€ฆwe all still miss you. I hope whatever you are, Russell is keeping you company, begging for scratches and watching you eat, hoping for crumbs to fall. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ๐Ÿ˜ข๐Ÿ’”

  • Someone else didn’t want to wake up this morning either… ๐Ÿˆ ๐Ÿฅฑ ๐Ÿ“ท

    A fluffy gray cat is curled up sleeping on a couch beside a blue pillow, with the text 'lostinhaste.com' overlaid at the bottom.
  • I can’t believe it’s been a year since we said goodbye to Russell. The pain has faded a little but it feels like it’s been both an eternity but also just the blink of an eye since we said our farewells to our little puppy-rabbit. ๐Ÿ’”

    Lots of tears today… ๐Ÿ˜ญ

  • It’s hard to stay up all night, running around the house, keeping everyone up… ๐Ÿ’ค๐Ÿ˜ผ๐Ÿˆ

    Grey cat sleeping in the sun, curled up into a ball, half on a white chair and half on a red plaid blanket.

    I guess I have become a crazy cat person, all I seem to do lately is take pictures of Alex. ๐Ÿ˜น๐Ÿ“ท

  • Someone is very upset they’re not allowed to eat this morning before going to the vet… ๐Ÿ˜น

    Grey cat sitting (half on grey tile, half on cherry-red hardwood) in front of an empty feeder, looking back to the camera.

    Alex is making his displeasure known, to everyone in the house. ๐Ÿˆ ๐Ÿ“ท

  • I walked into the bedroom and he turned around to glare at me; evidently interrupting his bird watching wasn’t the best of ideas… ๐Ÿคฃ ๐Ÿ“ท ๐Ÿˆ

  • Rainy day + lazy cat = nap time ๐Ÿ˜น๐Ÿ’ค๐Ÿˆ๐Ÿ“ท

    Grey cat, in a grey/green recliner, wedged into the side, between the armrest and a pillow, with his head on the pillow and his eyes closed.
  • He really does look rather regal here but I think he’s trying to lure me into a false sense of security; I still think Alex is upset about the continuing construction in the house. ๐Ÿ˜ผ๐Ÿˆ๐Ÿ“ท

    Grey-white cat staring in the distance, sitting on a black/white carpet, in the sunlight. Behind him is an out-of-focus plant on top of hardwood flooring with a few pieces of carpet beside it.
  • Yup, he’s still not happy with the construction…it’s almost done but I can tell he’s plotting our downfall. ๐Ÿ˜ผ๐Ÿ˜น๐Ÿˆ๐Ÿ“ท

    Grey cat, on new (fake) hardwood flooring, in the glow of cloudy daylight, looking into the distance. The flooring is vertical planked, with brown carpet in the upper-right corner and mesh anti-slip pads in the upper left corner of the photo, with just the hint of a door.
  • Alex is not amused by the construction going on in the house. ๐Ÿ™€๐Ÿˆ๐Ÿ“ท

  • He was curious about what was going on in the kitchen. ๐Ÿฑ๐Ÿˆ๐Ÿ˜น๐Ÿ“ท
