#housesit — Public Fediverse posts

Good morning Fedi friends, it is going to be a beautiful sunny day today & I am heading out to Barnawartha to visit my son & family & to attend the netball family fun day with them at the request of my youngest granddaughter.
Unfortunately I was up & down a bit last night with an upset gut. I’m very rigorous with hand washing especially when I’m doing a #PetSit & litter trays are involved. Don’t know if it was dealing with that, or my defrosted leftover butter chicken, the remains of which I’ve binned. Not so bad this morning, but it was dry toast with a smear of Vegemite for brekky. I also will not be indulging in the sausage sizzle at the fun day. In fact it will be a very bland blah food day sadly 😔!
Hope everyone else is happy & healthy, wishing you all a sunshiny day 🌞. #HouseSit #PetSit #StormyTheGrumpyCat #Family #ThreeDaysToGo.

I have developed a routine to get #StormyTheGrumpyCat in for the night & until today it has worked really well. When I come out for him he takes himself off to the concrete path & rolls on it feeling the warmth from any remaining sun. I scratch his head & stroke his coat, sometimes carefully removing swigs, or other debris he’s collected in his coat or tail - he is incredibly fluffy. Then I quickly scoop him up & support him with my other hand under the butt & carry him in. It usually takes only a few minutes & he seems to like it, but you can’t scratch & stroke for too long which is what happened today.
I nearly copped it. I went to scoop him up when he turned & went to bite & scratch - I am proud to say I was quicker & he was too slow today at least. I hope he hasn’t cottoned on to my cunning little plan in these last couple of days 😬😁 🐈‍⬛. #HouseSit #PetSit #CrankyOldMan.

Good morning tooters. I was very tired last night, barely lasting until 9.30am, yesterday was a bit stressful & very tiring but I slept fairly well waking fully at 5.30am. It was still pretty dark at that time, but I got up & put the washing on. Not sure if it’ll dry & have my 🤞🏼which will of course help enormously 😂.
#StormyTheGrumpyCat has completed his morning routine of making me get up & down a few times to deal with his wants & is now outside for most of the day.
Staying around the house today, just puttering around & readying more things to pack up & take home. My goodness I have a lot of stuff here after 7wks, but I don’t see the point in doing without if I don’t need to.
Have a wonderful #Saturday everyone hope you all get some sunshine, looks like we’ll have it ☀️ up here. #HouseSit #PetSit #FourDaysToGo
