Pumpkin update

It's gotten dusty around here! Well, school is finally out for the summer and our lives have slowed way down. Thank goodness. This year has been crazy busy and I'm so looking forward to time off during the summer. I'll actually have time to blog again!

After Patch passed, I was really worried about Pumpkin. I had no idea how she would react. I was worried she would get depressed and stop eating, but I'm happy to report she is doing really well. She has taken the whole thing in stride and is back to bossing the cats around already! Since her house is in our finished basement and I was afraid she might get lonely, we have been making a real effort to bring her upstairs to hang out with us in the evenings. She loves to run around, chase the cats and nudge the dog to make him move out of her way. She jumps up on the furniture and even tries to run upstairs when we aren't looking. It's nice to see her having so much fun.

I guess she must have understood better than we did what Patch was going through and that it was his time. I'm glad that my precious Pumpkin is still her silly, bossy self.
