Three years of drought followed by a year of flooding rains have left the fenced area of my yard without grass - think mud to be tracked in by furry little feet. I got 5 bales of straw just before guest arrived and spread a very thick layer across yard. They had a ball playing in it.
And there were constant chipmunk hunts, especially in the drain pipes (they actually trapped one in a pipe then proceeded to try to dig up the pipe - that was a mess).
Nicky has plenty of toys but never plays with them. Lizzie got into the toys, then he became interested. Thought she might have succeeded in teaching him to play but since she left, he is ignoring the toys again.
They did keep me entertained over the holidays. Nicky is to stay with Lizzie and her human while I'm gone to FL next week.
