The Cats

Today Leelah Bean met NicNic, Cassie, Tex and Manny. Four well-behaved kitties that wanted to explain how it works between the canines and the felines. It went quite well. LB was a little shy but soon came to find NicNic liked to play as much as she did, so they had a good time together.

Leelah Bean also met three dogs - two cavaliers and a Shepherd mix named Emma. She thought Emma was enormous and scary despite Emma's gentle nature and excellent doggy skills. For a while, we thought maybe Leelah lost her tail because she had it tucked so far between her legs! Interestingly, when the Cavs came out to join us, Leelah was much more comfortable. Was it having more dogs around? Or smaller dogs? Hm, we may never know. But it was great to see that over the course of a few hours she grew her tail back and became as lively as ever.

Of course, she met the dog's people too. Steve and Karina. They are excellent people and had lots of chicken treats for her as well as a delicious dinner for me! This socialization thing might just be the best way to spend our days EVAH!

We have some video and pictures from today that will be posted soon!

Dear sister Bean, Good job! It's very important to be brave! Today I bit onto the hose just when my grandpaw was turning it on. That was scary! I ran right away! But then I came back and decided it was safe after all. My mom says I get to start being socialized on Wednesday. Bye!
