Show and Tell

Today, Cabana and I went to a fairly new store in our area called Pet Club. Do they have these in other parts of the US? It's cheaper than most other pet stores like Petco, but you can't use credit cards, only cash and checks. It's so nice that Cabana can still go into pet stores. Today, she was complimented by a woman in line behind us who raved about how well-behaved Cabana was. I said, well yeah, except that she's a "flunkee". ;)

Based on some of the comments from my previous posts, I bought this adorable little blue "monster" ball (makes me think of Halle Berry). We saved out a 1/2 cup of Cabana's dinner and gave it to her in the monster ball. She had a lot of fun, pushing it around with her nose and gobbling up the trail of kibble.

At Poppy's raiser's suggestion, I bought a stuffed hedgehog. It is SO cute! Or should I say, it WAS so cute. Cabana went straight for the nose, and now it's like a deteriorating Roman statue--you know how a lot of old statues are missing the nose? This hedgehog doesn't "fart" like Carrie's (didn't Carrie mention something about a farting hedgehog at some point?), but it does squeak. Cabana will squeak it on cue. We say, "Cabana, squeak it!" And she makes it squeak. Of course, she might make it squeak even if we didn't give the command, but hey, humor me.

She hasn't pulled out the stuffing yet. Still, when she has the hedgie, she is required to be on her bed, which is right behind my computer chair, so I can see what she's up to.

Cabana also got a new RED collar--hotsy totsy! I felt a bit sad taking off the black collar with the Guide Dogs identification on it, engraved with her sweet little tattoo number, 4T90. Sigh.
