Jack vs. the Balloon

 Jack was growling at the top of the stairs until Vivian went to investigate. There was a balloon floating in front of the door that I guess he mistook for an intruder. So he refused to come downstairs.

Jack and the Box

After Sam was told multiple times to clean up the Cheeze It box, Jack found it and decided to eat the leftovers. Of course, Sam filmed it before rescuing him and then set it to music.

Pet Update

Other than the demise of the guinea pigs, Jack and Mika have kept things interesting. Jack escapes from the house less and barks a little less due to a new collar. However, she has decided not to use her litter box and for a while only used the bathroom in various potted plants. 
Now the indoor potted plants have stones and orange peels in them to deter her. Which works. So she has decided to use the entire basement in nooks, crannies, and crawl spaces to relieve herself. So the entire basement reeks. 

I finally addressed it with the vet who suggested prescription cat food only to determine whether its a gastrointestinal issue. Meanwhile she eats more of Jack's food than he does. So that has to get put out of the way if she gets into it.

No more Fancy Feast for this one.

Fancy new litter box that offered privacy, but did not solve the problem.
