I was gone for a long weekend in Virginia Beach... only three days but I was so happy to see my babies when I got home. Siouxie, my boxer, and Iris, my beagle mix, both slept in the bed my first night back. They have fleece, padded dog beds so normally they prefer to sleep undisturbed in their own beds but that night they didn't want to be any further away than that.
 Anyway, as I type, Siouxie is asleep on the dog couch and I keep looking at her knowing that I'm leaving on Sunday for two weeks to go to Florida and I already miss her. I even let the goats and horses into the back yard so that I can give them kisses whenever I go outside. Okay... I KNOW I'm being sappy but does anyone else get like this? After reading about Steyr losing his dog this morning it just reminded me of how much they bring to my life and how much I will miss them when they are gone. Gonna go give everyone a hug now.... at my place, that could take a while.

I had to leave my cat for four days a couple weekends ago, and felt bad. I always do. She sleeps with me at night and it's the first cat that I've ever had that does. I think it bothers me because my last cat died while I was dated a girl and was rarely home. He didn't get as much attention and just started getting sick. The vet never could figure out why he was sick so much. Never knew what he died of either. I really think I killed him.

Yes I do not like to be away from my little friends, and have to spoil them even more when I get back. I love them doggies.

Ours make the same crazy nutso bazoo fuss if we've been gone for 15 minutes or 15 days. Get's pretty ridiculous to have two crazy basset hounds running around howling and jumping on you while trying to get the groceries or suitcases in. It's hilarious the first time you see it but every damn time, woh.
One of them gets pretty excited if you are down the hall to shit/shower/shave or change that she gets giddy when you come back to the room after 5 minutes. |

My golden runs up to me every night when I get home, leans his head up against my leg and grunts like a pig. I guess that's his happy sound.
Sad though when my ex wife was in town earlier this year. She came over to visit her "baby" and he was spastic over getting to see her. Sad part was when she left he ran to the edge of the road with me holding his leash and literally screamed and cried when she drove off

My orange tabby 'Burble' is always on my mind when I'm away. During the hurricane she spent a lot of time on my lap purring.

The best part of being away is the welcome home! Our dog follows my Wife and Daughter around if we have been gone any lenght of time.

I got back from about a week in Mexico last week and da' boys turned out to be just fine. Despite being cats, they do greet me at the door when I come home. They went nuts after spending a week alone. There was a hint of paranoia that I might find one dead when I got home...but of course they were just fine. It's strange how you can get so attached to animals.

Mine does the same thing. His name is Hunter, though our nickname for him is grunter. It sounds like he is trying to hack up a leuggie |
