Ok folks, I am all set!
I think the only thing I have left to get is a dog seatbelt for the car and to order the right puppy food from my vet.
Today I bought and set up a crate. I set up a playpen. I have countless toys, leashes, collars, food dishes, seat cover/barrier for the car, kennel to bring her home in....
I moved the cat's food and bed up out of the way of the floor a week or two ago to make sure he knows he has a spot to go to get away from the roving fur ball on the floor. I also set up a baby gate in the doorway of the bathroom (which is where the cat's litterbox is - treasure trove for the pup!) and the cat is already very used to jumping over to go in and out. It'll also give the cat a place to go to get away from the pup.
And I still have another three weeks to go! I'm such a superduper organizer/planner. I'm also read three different dog books. And I've registered for puppy classes. The first class is the day before I get her, but I'll attend it alone to see what we miss.
You'd think I'd have a name already figured out...but I don't! I change my name every 2 or 3 days.
Wow, rambling puppy rant! So, pictures:
