This weekend we are going camping. My husband has been trying to get me to go camping for 15 years. To cheer him up and because many of our friends are going, I agreed. I had a choice to bring Mya but 2 parties are planned and I was just too worried about, HEAT and people not seeing her at night and stepping on her. To combat heat while walking her at home, Mya had her first hair cut and I was mad at myself that I let my husband talk me in to "loosing her topknot" She looks like a little boy now *sulk* but she does not seem to mind. She has that puppy look again and in a way it is good because people kept saying she was getting so big and half of her was hair. I say this because I think people are more careful when they see how small she really is.
I know my daughter is great with animals and has looked after our other dogs and pets before.
She is 19 yrs old and very mature and responsable as well as an animal
lover. She has saved and hand raised abandoned new born kittens
and kept her chameleon alive for 9 months after 2 vets told her that she would be lucky if he lived another month. She has taken care of our other dog and cat for years while we were away
Yet I am still worried. That leaving your baby for the first time feeling. I reminded her that Mya is like a one year old baby and that she can't leave her alone or not know what she is up to. I got the *eye roll *and the "yes Mother I know" ...hahahahah Mya is also over 6 months and has not gone in heat yet so I am worried it might happen when I am away. Her moods go from meek and mellow to so hyper you can hardly hold her. Just in this past week.
I don't know if this a sign or not. She still likes to go shopping and is great being in her travel bag. If she is in the car and not in her travel bag she will cry to go in it. My Daughter's car does not have air conditioning and so I am a little worried about that. Mya is holding at 4lbs but has learned to jump up on the sofa and yesterday she went climbed up 3 stairs. She leaps off the sofa with out any problems but my thoughts were, why now??? When I am going away.......lol
Ohhhh her new thing is to find Canadian Tire Money and chew it up. She does not chew up anything else. So I have warned my daughter that if she leaves money around expect to loose it. I will try not to phone home too often to check up on them. Maybe only .....3 times a day....Ok maybe only once a day.
