Dog Day and Cat Thing

Turn up the volume so you can listen to Freyja’s splashes

We took a long walk in the bosque this morning, and Freyja got to splash around in the Rio Grande, as you can see in the above video.

Glenda: “Whatcha makin’, Paparazzo?”

What might this pile of wood turn into?

Hmmm! It looks like a waterwheel. But what would we or the cats need a waterwheel for?

Oh! It looks like Marble is hiding something.

Marble: “It’s a Kittywheel! You stupid Paparazzo. You didn’t even know what you put together!

The Kittywheel on the deck with the cat tree.

Sasha thinks it’s quite comfy, but she hasn’t figured out that she’s supposed to walk on the Kittywheel.

  1. That is one happy dog!
    The kitty wheel is fabulous. It is fun to see the things you come up with. Maybe some day there will be a video of the cats walking in the kitty wheel. 🤞🙂

    • Freyja has so much energy. It was nice to see her romping in the river. I hope to have videos of kitties running on the wheel. Especially Sasha. Thanks, Susan.

  2. Your dog looked he was having fun!
    I love your deck! Such pretty flowers and your cats are lucky to have a cat wheel! It looks great!

  3. No doubt about it, Freyja is having a great time!
    The kittywheel looks very complicated to put together… I wonder if the cats will use it to walk or to sleep…

  4. How much fun is Freya having? Zeke used to love the water though he was more of a stroller than a splasher.

    Lovely kitty wheel. I’m sure it will be used for other than an extra bed?

  5. That is a great kittywheel, Tim! A work of art, too! I never ceased to be amazed at your unending supply of talent in various areas! I wonder if positioning a treat part way up, just out of reach, might get them going on it.

    • Once they get comfortable with the wheel being part of the deck furniture, I’ll try a laser pointer to motivate them to walk on the wheel. I thank that might work pretty well. Thanks, Lavinia.

  6. Freyja is a happy and healthy doggie having great fun. The kitty wheel is amazing and they will figure it out. Maybe put a bag of catnip tapped to the top and she may figure it out. Gorgeous sunset. We are blessed with some beautiful sunsets too. Much hugs and lots of love, Joni

  7. That is so cool Tim!

    So, are the cats supposed to run upside down? My Pupkin used to tear sideways across the sides and back of the couch. Very gravity defiant.

    Lol…Sasha sleeps in it. Love it. Maybe she figures the wheel is just perfect running around her?

    Has Spunkie-Poo 💋 had at it yet? xx

    • I’m sure they will try running upside down for than right way up. Spunk has laid in it like Sasha. Thanks, Resa.

  8. Oh I had a few dogs like Freya that would never tire of the ball or stick in the water. Such energy! Omg what a cool cat walk wheel you made for the kitties, Tim.. do you take orders? I couldn’t put it together tho.. lol Very cool!!! ahhhhh that sky!👏☀️💓

  9. Looks like Freyja is having a blast – Ruger saw the video over my shoulder and is now demanding I fill his pool so he can go swimming. He also saw the kitty wheel which prompted an immediate “NO!” from me ha.

    • No doggie wheel for Ruger? You’re a mean one Mr. Grinch. Freyja loved the river. Thanks, Brian.
