Maria nodded and smiled at them. "Don't worry, I'll bring back a blue ribbon." she said. She and Jacques left the house. Mary and Henry brought the pups inside as it started to rain.
Alessa looked up as James left. She flicked her tail, then yawned. Mary went to bed and Henry watched the pups. He ran around with them, barking and yapping.
Sun loved to play in the rain so did James. Penny offered to help Henry. "May I help you?" She asked him politely. Ink was watching the rest of the movie.
Henry skidded to a stop. "Help with... apple juice?" he asked, gesturing to a juice box with no straw attached to it. He tilted his head some. The pups kept playing.
Henry wagged his tail and sipped on his juice box. He smiled, as he loved apple juice. Carter came downstairs and looked at James and Sun. "You're Jacques' problem." he said, "I handle your shots, he handles your coats. Speaking of shots..." He turned to Alessa. "Your monthly blood draw is today." he said. Alessa flattened her ears some.
"He left with Maria!" he called, "I'll get you guys a bath drawn, but let me handle her first." Alessa dug her claws into the couch, not wanting to go. Shots had always scared her, but with how tough her skin was, the needle had to be shoved into her and yanked out. Blood also made her faint. Carter went to her and soon got her. Alessa winced some as she was taken upstairs.
