What a Brat....

Do you remember LulaBelle...?
She's the beagle we are trying to rescue...
She lives by the back door and still will not let us touch her nor will she come inside..
She does like to play with us and has several toys plus she really likes her breakfast, dinner and snacks...
This cold weather put me in a tizzy....worrying if she was warm enough in her dog house with all (3 or 4) blankies and large dog pillow....
Enter the SnuggleSafe....which i read about over on 7SNW blog..
it's a microwavable heating pad about the size of a dinner plate...
sooooooo
I quickly pulled up the ole' Amazon account and had one on the way....
Now  it arrived yesterday...
In a hurry to test it out...i read the directions...popped it in the microwave...wrapped it in a towel and rushed outside to place it in Lula's house....
I very gently place it in a corner...sort'a squished into a blanket...
direction said to place it under the bedding...but....i really wasn't sure...
30 minutes later as i looked out the window.....there was Lula's snugglesafe out in the driveway with it's nice...pretty...clean fleece cover off and in the grass.....
UNGRATEFUL Brat...!!
I ran out and recovered the expensive heating pad.....recovered it....and shoved it under her bedding ... where it should have been all along...
UNGRATEFUL  BRAT...!!
she will be warm this winter if it kills me...

Everyday is a Gift

  1. You sound so determined and I don't blame you. It is cold out and she needs some warmth. Thank you for giving here a dog house to crawl into. I had a n outside dog growing up and we used to stuff hay into her dog house to help keep her warm in winter.

  2. She may be a 'brat', but she is loved already or you wouldn't try so hard to keep her warm this winter....:-)

  3. Hope she keeps warm. Guess she only thought you'd given her a new toy to play with. It's only 11 degrees here this morning. All pets should be indoors. But sadly there are some still out here. We have neighborhood cats that are out in all kinds of weather. Not mine...I don't have any pets at all anymore. Your LuLubelle doesn't know how fortunate she is that you care.

  6. We have an outdoor cat that adopted us a few years ago. I feel so bad that I cant let her in but my 10 yr old indoor cat does not appreciate feline friendships. I worry on these cold nights. Last year I would heat a brick in the oven and wrap it in a towel and place it in her bucket she slept in. She always let me put it in there. This year she is sleeping somewhere new and I have not figured out where yet to keep her warm with the brick.
