"Our" pet cat Peppy is Back

Way back in June, Peppy had a few "accidents" in our house. He had never done that before, maybe he was sick, but we stopped letting him in for a while. He would still hang out here--sleeping on the back deck or front porch. Then we went on vacation to the beach--a 10 day trip. We didn't see Peppy for the rest of the summer. We actually wondered if he was around and okay. In late August, we caught a glimpse of him down the street one day at the end of our morning run, but he still didn't come around.

Well with school starting and it getting just a bit cooler, Peppy found his way back to our back door at the crack of dawn. He begins meowing to come in when we get up to get Kate up and off to early morning seminary.

His first day back was September 16th, right in the middle of scripture study. (You can bet everyone was focused on the scriptures after that first meow and the kids letting Peppy inside.) And Peppy is here everyday again, just like old times. And we love it and him. He's a great cat. [And we've had no more bathroom "accidents" from him. :)]

Spencer with Peppy on the floor during family morning scripture study on the 16th.

Here he is on the 18th in a Build-a-Bear pet bed/basket that is sitting out on the picnic table on the back deck.

On James (his favorite spot) while talking to his Mom on the phone on the 25th.If James lays down on the bed and the cat is inside, he'll come lay right on his chest.)

Peppy jumped into the dryer to "exlore."
He made a quick exit though.

Curled up asleep on the chest of drawers in our room--another favorite spot to sleep.
