Lehnen was also on her own vacation while I was in P-town. I have a list of people who wish to babysit her. Really, they fight over her. I don't mention her much, but since she did such a good job while on assignment I thought I would share.

Lehnen-bug is a cat who has been around the block. Found on a street corner near starvation she was brought into a vets house and nursed to health. I got her simply because I was "next on the list for saved cats" and feel quite lucky to have received her. I have had Lehnen since 1998 and everyone who meets her simply thinks she's a doll. I used to say she was a slut, but I have been informed that she simply is a good ambassador for cat-kind. She is one of those loving, sweety types who want to snuggle up to you and simply let you pet her.

She has been babysat by many, but this trip was going to be a toughy for her. She was going to a house with 2 children (ages 7 and 2). Her job? To win over the heart of the 2 yr old who screamed everytime she saw an animal. We told her she was the last hope and sent her to Lrain's for the week. It took her a few days to get used to the different noises and people, but she won their hearts.. esp. the 2 yr old who played patty cake with her. She got bold and started to head butt her treat can (after getting on the countertop.. a no-no in my house.) In the end they had a lovely time and so did she.. but last nite she curled up right next to me as if to say "those people were ok, but you are my mommy."
