Laying Out

We have gotten really lucky this week with some nice sunny days.
Mickey loves to sit out in the sun, in spite of the heat and humidity. Jamal warned him on Wednesday that it was very warm and there was a possibility of overheating. Mickey ignored his warning and snoozed in the hot muggy grass...

Only to jump up suddenly wheezing and panting and limping over to the nearest bush to hide under. It took a great deal of effort to drag him out from his little hideout in the mud to bring him into the stairwell where I had cool concrete and a water dish waiting.
After he quenched his thirst, the little imp had a grand ol' time tipping the bowl over! Then he would pant pathetically until I would refill it. After two sips, down went the paw on the side and all the water was now on the concrete...

So ended Mickey's time in the sun...
