With the extra hours I have been putting in at work, the pups have been forced to find some unusual ways to entertain themselves. Lela took charge of the mother cat and five kittens we have by holding a vigil outside of the room that they are in.

Photos by Pat Miller / Koda is fascinated by the cats as shown here. Shaka is the feline yawning and ZZ is the lighter cat.Miakoda on the other hand has taken up teasing our own cats Shaka and ZZ. He will saunter into the bedroom and nose up to them, while Shaka could care less ZZ is still not too sure about this large wolf dog saying hello. Koda does everything he can to show ZZ that he won't hurt her. He digs out the towells out of the hamper and rolls around the floor with them.
Koda will walk over to the bed and say hello which she is just not that sure of. He walks out of the bedroom to check on Lela, but Lela will not leave her post as the self appointed watch wolf over the kittens.
Hubby Cal with an affectionate Koda.I have been trying very hard to explain to Miss Lela that the kittens are only temporary and once they are big enough they will go to the shelter to be adopted out but she doesn't seem to agree with me. She thinks that she is their mother, it doesn't matter that when she walks into the room there is major hissing from momma cat.
Since Lela cannot get to the cat or kittens it can be funny but not wanting to stress out the mother cat, we make sure that the door is secure before leaving the house. So Lela plants herself outside of the door in the hallway just watching the door.
Koda doesn't mind Lela's door guarding because it gives him more time with his favorite furr buddy Shaka. They have grown up together and are very close.
Koda prefers going into the other room with the cats he knows won't hurt him. I was a little worried for a while when I would leave for work and see both of the them looking out the front window.
I was concerned as to what they would be getting into. They are very intelligent which explains why we have so many locks on so many things most people would never think of locking. I mean how many of you visit someone's home that has locks on their refrigerator and freezer.or have to lock bathroom doors from the outside?
It's okay for us but a lot of people think we do go to extremes with the pups safety.
So hopefully we will be able to find some time soon to take the pups out of the house for some fun times before the cats figure out how to lock their door from their side of the room.
