Toby gave this to Grandma for Mothers’ Day.
She said it was the best she’d ever seen him behave.

Under the Couch
Toby likes to make sure that it is next to impossible to clean up after him. Geordie at least had the good sense to go outside to do this.
Where would be the fun in that?

Hooves
Toby didn’t want me sitting in my chair today. He kept jumping up to get my attention. To make him happy I decided to lie down on the floor and keep him company. I was really tired, though, and I fell asleep almost as soon as I did. Unbeknownst to me, Toby brought over one of his hooves to entertain himself. He sat down next to me and pressed the hoof against the back of my legs while I slept. When I woke up my pants were soggy with drool, and I smelled like a barn. Thanks Toby!
Any time, mom. Any time.

RAHru
The other day, Toby was making quite a fuss at his toy box. I told him to take out whatever he wanted, but he insisted that I get it. Several times I asked him what he was looking for, and he kept saying “RAHru”. OK, let’s figure out what RAHru is. One by one I picked up the toys to offer him. He was completely disinterested until I picked up this tiger. Then his eyes got big and his tail started wagging. Evidently this toy is RAHru.
It seems that Toby wanted RAHru in order to have someone to frame for stealing socks.
Blue Puppy has company as Toby’s naughty sidekick.
You don’t expect me to take responsibility for my own behavior, do you?

Blue Loo
I can’t wait to get inside and wash off.
Toby got what will hopefully be his last bath from me today. Why the last? This dog is like the Tasmanian devil when it comes to grooming. After yet another bite, I decided it was time to look for a groomer. I had been avoiding groomers because of my allergies. I have problems with fragrances and with parabens. I have no idea if I will be lucky enough to find someone who uses products that I can tolerate. If not, this might end up being Toby’s last bath ever. Gross.
(In real life the toilet lid is kept down when not in use, so Toby can’t wash his face whenever he wants to.)

A Difficult Decision
Trust me. It matters.
**************************************
Do you have a student in your life who is starting back to in-person classes? If so, send him or her to school in style with this Cecil the Cat Lunch Bag. Happy Cecil smiles as he tells your student “I love you” in American Sign Language. Bag is insulated to keep food cool during the day. If Cecil gets dirty, you can throw him in the wash (unlike real kitties which object strenuously to baths).
Cecil the Cat Lunch Bag is available from my shop.
Toasters and Magnets
Finding work has been next to impossible for me since most places around here are still closed. I wondered if perhaps a car magnet advertising pet portrait services might get some attention.
Toby says the fact that we drive a toaster might distract from any messages on the door.
