Passionate bright young things

[lizblackdog]

They can walk now instead of floor-swimming, and Callette and Shona have been introduced to Spike. They didn't care - all the kittens have been smelling the dogs on me all their lives so Spike was just part of the furniture, but he nearly burst!

I didn't take pictures of the introduction, but I will when it's all a bit less new and scary for me. Spike was on his best behaviour, holding his breath, not moving a muscle though his whiskers and the tips of his ears were vibrating with pent-up excitement - but when I took them for a walk right afterwards he gave me the very best full-on rollercoaster shark-fishing barking steer-roping alligator-wrestling Spike experience in his power. Aww!

Oh! I love that last one...is that Callette standing up on all 4 legs?

By now, Cassie must know Spike won't hurt her babies, she probrably trusts that they're big enough that he won't even accidentally step on them...perish the thought! I have this picture in my mind of Spike suddenly staring at me and saying that...lol

That one's Shona, Callette is the stripy orange-and-tabby.

I think Cassie understands very well that Spike's intentions are good, yes. He's just very big and pointy and makes sudden movements more than she'd like. He's very very non-clumsy though, and he's always been one of those dogs who goes very gentle and restrained around small children.
