Playing in the backyard

Best buds- Cricket and Chloe
It’s been a little while since I have posted about best friends Cricket and Chloe. It’s also been awhile since they’ve both been asleep in my house. They have been outside pets until the weather was cold and we felt sorry for them, bathed them and let them in out of the cold. By cold, […]
