Mom lost her voice Sunday night and hasn't found it yet. I have been helping her out by looking for it, but I haven't found it either. I didn't know 'beans could lose their voices, go figure.

The new little guy is okay. I'm getting used to him. He uses my bediby basket and my cat box and my cat bowl and my water fountain, but you know share and share a like I say. I taught him how to patrol the cabinets in the kitchen and bathroom. He learns quick. I showed him how to put a paw under the cabinet door edge and flick it open and he got it after a couple of tries. Now we take turns patrolling. It leaves me more time to help Mom out.

Mom is giving me lots of sugars because she is home until she finds her voice. This could take awhile. I wonder if I find it first and then hide it again if she will stay home for good? That probably wouldn't be nice, but a poodie has to consider all his options.
