Things we've learned about Tinker....

As with any animal, we are continuing to learn new things about lil miss stinker bell.

Thunderstorm season has arrived and while she is still not a fan, she is a heck of a lot better than she was last year. The beginnings of the storms generally do not bother her and the larger claps of thunder and rain send her to the couch rather than a closet or continually bumping into things. She 'settles' on the couch and shakes and lets me pet her.

Also, we OCCASIONALLY will leave her laying on her bed while we go out for short stints of time and she appears to sleep the entire time. We left her while nick was leaving home and i was coming back a few weeks ago and then again when we left to go out to eat in town and she was good as gold. She appears more relaxed and content.... who knows? I do know that long lengths of time will not be safe for her as there is a whole house of accidents waiting for her. But shorter lengths while she normally sleeps? Her bed seems pretty safe : )
