Sleeping Trudy
Every morning I have to wake Trudy up. This is how I found her on Valentine's Day morning. She's snoring in this position.
Paw-ty Time!
My friends threw Trudy a shower this weekend. They came over to my place with doggie themed cupcakes, bone shaped tea sandwiches and shower games! It was very thoughtful and Trudy and I were very touched. Cassie was happiest when everyone went home.
This shower game was called the Sooper Dooper Pooper Scooper Derby! It was like a triathalon, said Marisa (hope that's no indication of how hard she's been training for hers). This is the picture at the start - everyone is in teams of 2. Here we are about to eat and drink like Trudy! Then we had to be led around the apartment with our eyes closed (walk like Trudy!) and then "find the poop" that was hidden around the place (which were just brownies in plastic bags). Eat like Trudy? eew. lol.
Marisa finds some poop!
Fran now owns dog bone shaped cookie cutters, I'm guessing.
There's apparently a booming dog party business because Ginny was able to find these:

Speaking of poop, here's another game. Tootsie Rolls in a glass canister.
Doggie see, doggie do
Trudy and Cassie are becoming closer every day. Lately Trudy has been imitating Cassie - specifically, kicking her off of her spot on the couch. I wish I had caught this progression on video, but I have pictures.
There's a little cat mat that's on the edge of our couch that says "i like my fishes". Cassie fits quite nicely on the mat and sits there often. Trudy decided the other day to push Cassie off the mat and take her place. You can see she doesn't quite fit as well.

Midnight snack
Sorry there are no photos of this story, but trust me - you'll thank me.
One night this week, before going to bed, I scooped Cassie's litter box and put the contents in a plastic grocery bag, tied it up and left it in the bathroom to be thrown out in the morning. (Can you see where this story is going?)
The next morning I woke up and noticed the bathroom floor was covered in a thin layer of litter, the plastic bag had been shredded and the smelly, savory contents of the bag had mysteriously disappeared! Both Cassie and Trudy were asleep in their beds. So innocent, these two.
I still don't know if they were in cahoots or if this was the work of one trash hound, but I was pretty grossed out overall. However, bits of the truth "came out in the end" on my morning walk with Trudy.
Anybody want some Trudy kisses??
