puppies!
So my cousin's dog had puppies a couple weeks ago.
Eleven of them.
(Well, technically thirteen but two of them died at birth. So.)
So my cousin's dog is already drying out, milk-wise, and also getting fed up with getting mobbed. Not the greatest mother ever, but. Eleven puppies. I understand. And my cousin and my aunt leave the house at seven AM to go work and come back around six PM. And at this age the puppies should be fed every three hours or thereabouts.
Guess who gets to do it.
I am torn between OMG PUPPIES!! X333 and eleven oh god why. Their house is 15-20 minutes on foot from my apartment -- two bus stops, so not far enough to justify taking the bus. It shouldn't be very problematic, but I am so out of shape and my new boots are like BWAHAHAHAHA! SUFFER! SUFFER FOR YOUR HEELY SINS! Also, foot wart that hurts like a motherfucker, yeah, you totally wanted to know that. Also just mixing the milk powder and stuff takes me ages and then it takes me ages to get one bottle into each (especially since some of them have not figured out how to suckle efficiently yet and dribble. Also, liquid, stinky poo.)
All that to say, it really cuts into my leisurely afternoons. >__>
But. Puppies! They're all black, save for the one that's such a dark brown it's almost black (BIG HELP THERE, BROWNPUPPY), so I have to tell them apart by the size of their chest stars and socks. D: Okay, which one of you guys have been fed yet... oh hey, I recognize you, little cheater, this is your second bottle! There's the two that look like fat, sleepy little bears and the tiny skinny grumpy one that's totally toppy and the ones that keep eating each other's muzzle OH MY GOD SO CUTE. But apart from that they're so similar, whoa. And some are already kind of walking and stumbling around and some only crawl so far but are like guided missiles anyway when there's milk around. Ngh. And then they go and pile up together and how am I supposed to recognize any? There's just that puppy mosh pit of black fur and adorable short muzzles and round puppy bellies.
Puppiiiiiiies. ngh. ♥ Ahh, I wish I could take one. T__T
It's almost enough to make me forgive my cousin for not getting her dox fixed before she ran off and got herself knocked up. It's not like we all told her a hundred times to get around to it, and now she's got eleven mixed breed puppies to find home for right in the middle of summer vacation. Great job, Em'. =_____=; But, not the puppies' fault. ngh puppiiiies.
