Squeaker checks out her toys often to make sure they are all there. She’s such a joy.

    It’s a good idea to check your toys out from time to time…..they have a way of “disappearing” !!

    Hugs, Teddy

    I do the same thing when we get up after a long night’s sleep, Squeaker. You have to make sure no gremlin came in and took your toys in the middle of the night☺

      Yes we do sneak in and remove the nasty or torn up ones. I think she knows. Love and hugs to you and Kit and scritches to the kitties. 🙂

      She makes sure all her toys are where they are supposed to be. Happy Monday and week, Yvonne. 🙂

      She sure is. She talks to us all the time to let us know what she wants. We are pretty good at listening. 🙂

    Pets are comfort in a fur coat and four paws. I will be working on the computer and hear Lucy’s squeaky ball behind me. I turn around and there she is, at 8 yrs old, still ready to play a game of fetch.

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      They tell us what they want and we always do what they want. So precious. Scritches to beautiful Lucy. 🙂

      Sandee says:

      We put them away each morning and they spend the rest of the day/night putting them where they want them. Scritches to the pups. 🙂

    Oh thanks Sandee for the smile. I loved it when I read your caption: Squeaker checks her toys… “often to make sure they are all there”…so adorable. Your cats have such beautiful personalities. You are blessed, dear friend.
    Happy Awww Monday and much love to you.

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      They do indeed. Both are lovebugs and we’re happy about that. We’ve given them lots of love and scritches and in turn they have become lovebugs. Love and hugs to you. Happy week. 🙂

    So cute, checking out her toys. One of our cats (RIP) was a thief or you might say a cat burglar. She would steal things of ours, like pens, jewelry, clothing, money, hair clips, and stash them in a hiding place. Mostly under the bed. But she guarded her stolen treasures and wasn’t happy when we found it out. haha 🙂 Wishing you a very Happy Monday and new week. <3

      Sandee says:

      Squeaker loves to take dads things. He has to be careful where he puts thing. Happy week, Barbara. 🙂

  10. CAAC says:

    I think this is her way of showing she appreciates the love you give her for getting her fun things to play with. 🙂 And I agree with All Things Collie, she looks like a house panther!

      Sandee says:

      Your babies makes me smile. Kitties are such wonderful family members. Double Pawkisses to you both and a big hug to Granny. 🙂

      Sandee says:

      She just might be doing that. We love that she checks them often. Happy week. Scritches to the pups. 🙂

    Thank you for hosting, I am praying you and Mr. Zane have a fabulous week. Please give Squeaker and Lil’ Bit an extra scritch from me.
