My brood

Well, we have some knowledge of how Honey will turn out.  She is a good watch dog except in the dark, if it is raining, and if it is cold.  She is afraid of the dark, hates rain and cold.  Otherwise, she is a great watchdog.  And she is great at keeping that dog looking back at her from the window in the dining rook from getting inside.  She hasn't figured out why it won't go away, though.  Saturday, I noticed my lime tree on it's side in the middle of the yard.  Of course I went to investigate. Yep.  Honey had pulled the small tree out of the pot, dumped all the dirt from the pot, and destroyed the pot.  She had also pulled up my pepper plant and was about to go to work on my night blooming orchid.  So, a lot of re-potting and removing the plants from where she could get them. And she helped with the repotting.  I also spent all day Saturday and Sunday with a mop in my hand every time she came inside.  There was mud everywhere.  I am so glad she was confined to the dining room and kitchen.  Had she had the run of the house, I would still be cleaning mud from the floors.  And cabinets. And walls.  And furniture. 

Duncan wore his sweater all day Saturday and Sunday.  It warmed up slightly today and I took it off, but tonight he wanted it back on. I keep my house at 68 so he gets cold.  Jock just burrows under any blankets I have on the furniture.  Duncan hasn't learned how to do that.  Honey has a queen size fluffy blanket in her crate and loves it.  I guess we will survive winter.
