Other than going on my therapy cat visit last week, I really haven’t gotten to do much lately. First it was really hot, then my human got busy and hasn’t had the time to take me to the pet store or anywhere else. So she made up for it yesterday afternoon by putting on my pretty tank top and giving me some outside time. The moment she put the harness and tank top on me, I started purring! I really do need to get out more.
This time we went down the stairs to the back.
It was pretty and green out here during our exceptionally rainy winter, but now it’s back to its usual boring brown. Maybe someday my human will have it landscaped.
I didn’t wear the tank top for too long — it’s still warm, even in the late afternoons, and my human didn’t want me to get overheated. We went farther down into the yard, and you’ll never guess what I saw! Okay, you probably can.
It was a lizard! My human and I disturbed it when we came down the concrete steps and it dashed off. Can you see it in the distance? Probably not unless you are a kitty.
My human used the zoom to take a photo of him, but still couldn’t get all that close. But I think you can see him pretty well now. A second after this photo was taken, he ran off into the dirt.
Even though I couldn’t catch the lizard, it was still nice to be out and get some fresh air.
My human and I even got in some trick practice.
It was just nice to be there for a while. I like getting out of the house and I want to do more of it than I have lately.
Anyhow, I hope you enjoyed sharing my outside time!

Lovely <3
Glad you got some fresh air
I’m glad you didn’t chomp the lizard, Summer! By now, surely the two of you have become friends and have found that you had common interests like British comedy, slow food, and long walks through the grass. I wonder if anyone makes costumes for lizards….
Summer, you always have fun on your adventures!
Summer, it looks as if you had a terrific outing. We have been having exceptionally rainy and chilly weather lately so not spending as much time on the catio as usual. We like your cute tank top.

I love seeing you a outside,xx Speedy
You sure picked a good time to go outside. That lizard would have been fun to see…except petcretary isn’t too fond of such creatures…MOL!
Beautiful girl, and a hunter too! I bet you enjoyed not being photobombed by Binga, didn’t you? LOL.
Aw, Summer you are the prettiest girl ever! (Well, Binga is darn cute too. And Boodie…but I digress). I bet if your Human let that leash go slack, that little lizard would have met a toofy death, don’t you think?
You adorable little girlcats are wicked hunters. Back in the old days, the Human’s cats were outdoor kitties in Marin county, and little 5-6 lb. BooBoo killed something just about every day. The Human was kinda proud of her, but it was disturbing at the same time. She brought everything up on the deck to “share.” Sometimes, the Human says, they weren’t quite all the way deaded yet ::shudder::
We enjoyed seeing you enjoying the outside, Summer! Sorry you didn’t get to catch that lizard.
I saw that liard even before the closeup! How cool that you really like your outside time. TW really wanted a unit with a catio for Nicky and Autumn but none were available.
Outside time is good time
You have enjoyed yourself. We have summer skinks here, but not lizards. Mum says they feel slippery and cool.
Summer, you look pretty when your eyes are full.
But, you also look pretty when your eyes are slitted!
you live in a pretty area…
Looks like you had a nice walk. You look cute with your t-shirt and without 🙂
That little lizard is adorable! But Summer, you really shouldn’t take your tank top off when you’re outside!
What a fun trip outside. It’s not often that you see a lizard. They’re quick to startle and run off to hide.
Looks like you had a fun time. You could have caught the lizard…..
Happy Monday, Sumer! Your outside adventure looks like it was a lot of fun.
Outside photos always show you off at your beautiful best…
It’s nice you can enjoy some fresh air in your garden, Summer ! Purrs
Good job — and your outfit was purrfect (as usual!)
Lucky you! We don’t get to go out at all! Then again, we wouldn’t like the harness like you do. 🙂
Purrz!

I know from your face what a pleasure it was to be outside enjoying the fresh air and lizards and grass, Summer. Loved the tank top and mom smiled that you were purring as soon as it went on, along with the harness.
Bummer you didn’t get to catch the lizard but we’re glad you got some outside time. We think your human should fill the backyard with nip!
we don’t get out but it has been cooler here with OPEN WINDOWS! glad you are getting at least some cooler air and outside time
Enjoy the sunshine while you can Summer – it usually rains a lot in the UK in the winter so just enjoy the autumn while you can.
OMCs Summer purring and happy paws all in one post. You must really really love the great out of doors.
My mom agrees with your human about spiders.
Hugs madi your bfff
Being outside is the best, Summer!
It looks like you were sure enjoying yourself out there pretty Summer!
We’re glad you got some outside time, Summer…but too bad you couldn’t catch that leezard. They’re quick!
Looks like some fun outside time, and a lizard too! It’s probably best that you couldn’t catch him, because what would you have done with him then? 🙂
So glad you got to enjoy the outside weather and wildlife. We have a small coolfront here in Texas and it’s so nice. It’s mostly green here year round. Enjoy, Purrs.
Yep, we always enjoy seeing your adventures. We bet that lizard would have been pretty tasty.
Well, we couldn’t guess the lizzard. Ok, we should have as we frequently read your blog, but lizzards are so far from our reality that it’s still weird they’re normal for you!
Ahhh! Fresh air, that’s the best!
Looks like you really enjoyed your outside time Summer! Me too – I just love it and I see lizards too but I also get them in my garage which is one of my favorite hangouts.
Love, Teddy
You’re looking relaxed and that a very good thing. Lizards would have no chance here with super hunter Odin.
How fun it was for you to get out in the yard and see a lizard too !
When the leaves fall off the trees, our landscape is brown too.
Purrs Georgia,Julie and JJ
Must’ve been so nice for you to go out, Summer! Enjoy the warm weather while it lasts 🙂
