Al the Cat


During the summer months, Peggy and Mike live in Suite B in the lodge along with their dog Queenie. I leave in Suite C, along with my dog Sarah and my two cats Al and Victoria. Behind the gift shop in the lodge, we share an office. We also share that office with all the pets and the staff. Next to the lodge kitchen, which is the main gathering room, there are always people and pets in the office with a lot of activity going on.

My cat Al has decided the office is his place to be also. We put down a foam pad and dog rug for each of the dogs under a desk hoping to keep them from underfoot. Sarah likes her spot, but Queenie found that Al took over her spot. Al makes his way to the office every morning, checks everything out, including the dog food bowl, and then settles down for the day long cat nap. He is tucked in beside some files, many cords and the PC power back up system. The noice and hustle bustle never seem to bother him as he slumbers the day away. He just puts one paw over eyes and continues to sleep.
