Experiment: Conclusive
We thought we'd give Iggy another shot at freedom on Friday. We heftily barricaded the barricade with the industrial fan, the industrial-size box of cat litter, and the industrial piece of plywood we got from George, and went merrily off to work. When we came in the door, Iggy and Oscar both came scampering back through the gap they had been clever and strong enough to create between the plywood and industrial fan. Since Iggy is not clever and Oscar is neither clever nor strong, we believe that Lily was actually the mastermind behind it all. For those of you who don't know,
Lily is on the left, and Oscar is on the right. See what I mean?
So there wasn't too much damage done in the basement, other than the requisite pile of Robbi's clothes (evidently I didn't learn the first time, and still left my stuff lying all over the place), but there was a brand new pile of delight in the living room.
Ha. Fooled you. When I said "pile of delight" I bet you weren't thinking paper towels. So, no more freedom for Iggy. No more carousing about with Oscar, drinking gin and tonics while we work our fingers to the bone trying to buy her all those stinkin chew toys. All evidence points to: crate.
Oh, and I forgot! The best part of it all was that she also ate half a box of cheeriiiiooooooos. And then had the runny poos for a day. There's really nothing more pathetic than watching a dog with big ears, a stumpy tail, and runny poos. Unless, of course, it's being a dog with big ears, a stumpy tail, and runny poos. She managed to contain herself till she got outside, but I must say our driveway is a bit of a mine field.
But really, how can you be mad at this:
?
But regardless. No more noshing on paper towels. Only noshing on sticks. And outside. Like this:
MUCH BETTER.
