Day 29 Thanks from Scout 🐾

Woof woof! 🐾 It's Scout here, and today was pawsitively amazing! It was the fur-st snowfall of the season, and I couldn't wait to get outside. As soon as I saw the snow, I bolted out the door with my doof ear flopping in the wind. ❄️Doh!

I started my day with some serious zoomies around the courtyard. I was running so fast, I almost caught my own tail! Then, I decided to play a game of "catch the snowflake." Let me tell you, those snowflakes are tricky little things. I barked at them, but they just kept falling.

Next, I made some paw-some paw prints all over the fresh snow. I even tried to make a snowdog, but it just looked like a big pile of snow. BOL (Bark Out Loud)! 🐶⛄️

After all that fun, I was one tired pup. I curled up in my new favorite king size bed, and dreaming of more snowy adventures. Thankful for winter, it is pawsome!
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

Days 23-28: Woof-Da! 🐾

This past week came and went faster than a squirrel on a mission! My paws were too tired to type on these clunky keys at night. We had a Holiday Bazaar and the humans were busy with early Christmas shopping. Cosmo, Willow, and I stayed in our safe zones, away from the hustle and bustle.

The weekend was a blur, with everyone busy taking care of our residents. On Monday, the staff were hustlin' and bustlin' making last-minute preparations for families coming today. Tuesday was the best because my new bed arrived! I'm sleeping like a king—it's so comfy!

Wednesday brought a costume parade, and everyone looked like inflated balloons. I got scared and ran to my safe spot! And p**f, now it’s one of my favorite days—Thanksgiving! 🦃 It’s all about those delicious kibbles, or “bites” as we call them.

Willow's been quietly observing everything from her cozy corner, making sure her kingdom is in order. Meanwhile, Cosmo’s been chirping away, adding a cheerful tune to the holiday buzz, greeting everyone as they walk down Main Street.

On behalf of Willow, Cosmo, and myself, we are beyond grateful, thankful, blessed, and loved by everyone here. Our hearts are full, and we appreciate all of you—not just today, but every day.

Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃🍁❤️

Hey there, hoomans! It’s your loyal pup, Scout! 🌞 Today, I’m wagging my tail with gratitude as I reflect on my pawsome life in this cozy kingdom. 🏰

First off, let’s bark about my home sweet home! 🏰 It’s not just a house; it’s my castle, where I reign supreme! I love finding the sunniest spots to soak up the rays and enjoy the warmth. With my eyes closed and ears perked, I’m always on guard, ready to protect my territory from any sneaky shadows! 🐶✨

I’m so proud to be the top dog here, where love and treats are always in abundance! 🍖❤️ My hoomans work hard to make sure I’m happy and healthy, showering me with cuddles and belly rubs that make my tail wag like crazy!

Even though I don’t get to play with Cosmo and Willow, I know they’re around, and I appreciate our separate spaces. It means I get to enjoy my own adventures and keep my kingdom in tip-top shape! 🛋️💖

Day 17 and 18 Thanks from Cosmo

Today, I’m strutting my stuff,
Outside my cage, feeling quite tough! 🦜
Though I can’t fly, I’m still on the go,
Exploring the hallway, putting on a show! 🎉

Thankful for moments, so bright and so free,
Every little adventure means the world to me! 💖
I may forget I can’t soar through the sky,
But with my little feet, I’m still a happy guy! 😊

So here’s to the joy of playtime and fun,
Two days of thanks, and I’m just getting begun! 🎈

Day 16 Thanks from Willow

Hey there, hoomans! It’s me, Willow, your favorite feline superstar! 😻✨ Today, I just want to say a purr-fectly big thank you for all the love and cuddles!

Being on the cover of Catmopolitan is a dream come true, but it’s your warm snuggles and tasty treats that really make my heart purr! 🐾💖

If you’d like my pawtograph, come find me in the Grass Creek household—most likely bird-watching from my throne! 🐦👑 Let’s keep the good vibes rolling with more playtime and less vacuuming!

Day 15 Thanks from Scout

Woof woof! 🐾 Scout here, ears perked and ready for Day 15 of our 30 Days of Thanks.

Today, I heard it's that time of year again—November 15—when people get dressed up in that spooky, bright orange color and venture out into the scary darkness to hunt deer. I don't like that color one bit! And then they hang the deer upside down on some pole thing... yikes! 🦌

But you know what I'm really thankful for? The fact that I don't have to worry about such things. I'm safe and sound, with my loving family who make sure I’m always looked after and well-fed with delicious treats. 🧡🫶🏻🐾

So, a huge thank you to my humans for all the love, care, and especially for keeping me out of that bright orange color!
