T & P’s Big Adventure

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Tubby is such an adventure cat, and he wanted to come outside with me about as soon as we got there. Saturday I couldn’t resist anymore so I brought him out. I did bring their little cage along, but I didn’t want to push too much on Peanut right away, so I just brought Tubby out on his leash. He loved it!




I only had one scary moment. We had some friends stop by. They showed up while I had Tubby in my lap (pic above) so I didn’t immediately get up. Terry was giving them the grand tour of the motorhome when I eventually got up and went inside, and the screen door was wide open!!! I immediately stopped the conversation they were having and told them rule #1 is that the door MUST remain closed tight at all times. I was quite adamant about it. Peanut wouldn’t be a problem, but Tubby (if he was awake) would immediately be out the door and on his way to exploring without his leash, and that is totally unacceptable! They understood and I’m happy to report the open door incident was not repeated the rest of the afternoon.

Everything went smoothly the rest of the weekend. Sara (ES) stopped by also, and she said she saw Tubby on the counter nibbling on the hamburger! I don’t have to worry about that at home anymore, but as you can see in the first pic of Tubby, the counter is now easily accessible and he wanted up on it quite a few times.

Overall I thought the weekend was a great success, and we’re all headed out there again this weekend. I got Peanut a new carrier (different thread on that story) that she’s seems to like a lot better, and now she’s more familiar so this weekend should go better than last!

It was soooo nice having them there. It was like the family was complete again. I always felt like something was missing when they weren’t there and now I don’t have to feel that way anymore. I’m sure I’ll have more pics and stories after this weekend, so stay tuned!

Tubby trying to find the perfect spot on the couch. He has never been on leather before and didn't quite know what to make of it. This video is in double time. It was quite funny how he couldn't find just the right spot, but the video was quite boring so I speeded it up.
