Comfortable Pets At Home

As the weather outside slowly gets colder, the indoor pets, though always warm, seem to spend more time snuggling on soft surfaces. Bugsy is fond of this little table which is covered by a rug:

Former tenants left this dog house behind when they moved. My dogs have mostly ignored it, but sometimes Daphne uses it to get out of the wind or rain:

Seamus' thick, woolly coat makes him pretty much impervious to the cold. He could stay outdoors for long periods, though he too likes his soft beds inside the house:

The ramp is still a favorite resting spot for the dogs when they're outdoors - and yes, the Rugosa Roses are still putting out a few late season flowers:

But the favorite resting spot is the kitchen corner with its floor pillows and dog beds:

As for Georgette, she is wedded to her bed on the kitchen table. That's Fergus, watching from the background:

The dogs always want to come in - unless I'm outdoors also:
