Toddy, the laundry helper and ladder climber

Earlier this month I shared a few photos of the girls' creative approach to sorting laundry.

Now it seems they have Toddy our blind cat involved.


And if you don't know much about Toddy, G. wrote this about him in the Pets section in May (along with her favorite chicken Una too).

    This is my cat Toddy. This is a close-up of him that I took in my yard. He got hit by a car and we adopted him from my dad's work after his accident. Toddy is blind but he can find his way around the house. He goes up and down the stairs and he knows where his food is. He eats a lot and he's kinda chubby. He's not supposed to climb to my sister's top bunk but he does anyway. I taught him to climb down the ladder so it would be easier for him to get down the stairs. He gets down but he falls mostly still. I don't know why he climbs to the top bunk but I think he goes to snuggle with my sister. He's very nuts to climb up the ladder!
No worries about Toddy getting around our house. Although every once in a while I hear a loud THUMP in the middle of the night. But I don't worry about that anymore. It's just Toddy missing a step on the bunk bed ladder on his way down to get a midnight snack.
