Prince Frederick Petco October Meet and Greet

Back in October (whew that was a long time ago!), Mom took me and Norman to a meet and greet in Prince Frederick.  I love hanging out with Norman.  We are old men together so we really just hang out, we don't really play.

Doesn't Norman have some nice thighs?

Oh, hai, Norman!

Hangin out like old mens.

We both had our own window.  Lubs fresh airs.

Here we have (L to R): Norman, Ripley, Kura, Lola, Saya, and Phil's cheek.

Ripley is guarding his momma while all the other doggies are getting pettins.
Does Ripley look like he's missing something?

On the way home, Mom had to stop and get gas.

Norman is an Alabama fan during football season.  Mom says we cheer for NC State...

Meet and greets with friends are so much fun!!  This meet and greet was very interesting because there was a limited amount of space and three cat adoption groups showed up that day.  We had cats on our left AND right.  Miz Tommy was ready for too much interest with her spray bottle of fire water.

There was a very rude cat lady there and Mom told me that if I peed on one of their blankets I wouldn't get in trouble.  This was probably the first meet and greet that I didn't pee on/in anything.  I'm full of surprises sometimes!  

Also, going on car rides has become my favorite thing.  Mom used to have to coax me and sometimes even lift me into the car, but now I jump right in and wait on Mom to remove my leash.  Then I patiently wait for her to get in and start the car so I can get my window time.

Peer Pressure...

After much peer pressure, Mom went out and bought me a new bed.

My initials thoughts:

Excuse me, Mom...  You put a foreign object on top of my bed....

The first night Mom piled my dalmatian blankie on top of the new bed to even get me to stand on it.  She even laid on it to show me how it's done.  She's a pretty silly Mommy.  She wasn't able to get a picture of me that first night because every time she moved, I was up and ready for action.  I mostly laid off of it, but I heard her say if I didn't start appreciating it, she was going to return it!

Is this how this works?

 Earlier today she caught me like this:

Mom says I'm getting the hang of it.

Now if I just roached, I'm sure she'd never be mad at me again...

PS.  This is the biggest one she could find at PetCo and she found it on sale for $78!  The cover is removable for washing, which was very important to her.  Not that I get stinky, so I'm not sure why she was worried.

PPS.  I'm sure if times got rough and she couldn't sleep on her "cloud" (what Mom calls her bed), I could let her borrow mine.   I love her that much!
