The Infamous Scratching Post

Do you remember in February how Brent tried to cut off his thumb while making a scratching post for Daisy? I do. If you don't, go here. Let's not talk about it anymore. It was yucky. And he still has a cool divot in his thumb. If you ever see him, ask him about it. It's kind of gross.

Anyway, he finally finished the said scratching post. And, since it's Brent, it turned into more than just a scratching post. He had to make it a scratching event!
Daisy loves her scratching post. Just this week she's figured out that it's a good place to sit and stare out the window. So, 9 times out of 10, if she's not with me, she's in that bed. It's kind of cute.

Why would Brent make her a scratching post? Well, she was scratching our furniture a bit and with all her surgeries it was hard to keep her nails trimmed. We went to buy one but they were anywhere from $75 to $100. Which was way more than either of us wanted to spend. So, he decided to make it himself using mostly wood that we had lying around.

He'll tell you that he made it to save money and not because he likes Daisy in the least. But I'll just smile knowingly and nod and let him believe that.

I was asked the other day is all of Daisy's hair had grown back in from her leg ordeal.
Yep. She has all her hair and looks pretty normal. When my mom was here she said that she couldn't even tell that anything had happened to her. I can but probably just because I know what to look at.

So, all are happy with the scratching event that was once to be just a scratching post. One thing checked off the honey do list...about a million to go! :)
