hi p!!! hapy sunday (maybe monday when you see this) i hope your weekend went well!
popped in here because i recently remembered that cats see you as just another weird cat who is just really bad at hunting. so I've taken to carrying squeezable treats with me to feed almond when i get back home so she see's me as capable 💀 and i just cant help but think that simon would literally do something similar because he can't have his little kitties thinking he's an inadequate hunter
- kiko 💕
hiya @mikichko! my weekend has been a smidge stressful so it's a joy to write some silly fluffy thoughts based on this ask!
it's gaz who tells simon that cats tend to view humans as weird hairless cats. he says it super casually, completely unaware that he's sent simon into spiral of researching cat behaviours and mild anxiety thinking that Kebab Meat and Cat think he's a bad provider.
after several days of trawling through vet tech blogs, watching cat behaviour videos, and questioning the pretty vet nurse at Cat and Kebab Meat's vet when he dropped by to pick up their monthly flea treatment, he orders some squeezable treats for his cats.
Cat and Kebab Meat love them. as soon as he reaches for the cupboard that he normally stores them in they start yowling and weaving around his legs, begging with all their furry little hearts.
it seems normal then to start training them to sit when he says "at ease" to the pair of them to stop Kebab Meat from digging his sharp claws into his thighs as the tiny orange horror tries scaling simon to reach the delicious sludge first.
then Cat starts tapping his hand and simon decides to train her to give him high fives when he says "present arms" for a laugh (it comes back to bite him when she starts slapping him indiscriminately when she has decided that he isn't providing affection fast enough).
he also uses the Power of Sludge for "evil" by using it to bribe them into their cat carriers when he needs to rush Kebab Meat to the vets after he jumps from the top of the fridge and refuses to put his paw to the floor (after an anxious wait and frankly eye watering bill, it's determined that the silly little cunt isn't injured somehow - just a little dramatic).

A little bit about CKC pointing field trials (puppy stakes) in general for those who are interested in how they run.
CKC has its hunting dog events broken out pretty specifically. CKC is restrictive in which breeds can run which events (e.g., only CKC registered approved pointing breeds can run pointing tests, other breeds are excluded even if they technically could complete the exercises. Rory can only run pointing events, she couldn't do a retriever test or a spaniel test).
We also have a distinction in trials vs tests, as most other venues do.
Trials - you are competing against other people and being judged against a standard. You run in pairs. Top 4 dogs get placements, once you get enough points you get a field championship.
Tests - you are running alone and being judged against a standard for a qualifying/non-qualifying runs. 3 qualifying runs gets you a title.
We are currently running CKC pointing field trials.
CKC pointing trials have two main distinctions within them - puppy stakes and senior stakes. You can enter whichever stake you're ready for, with some exceptions (like age) - you don't have to run puppy stakes before running senior stakes.
Puppy stakes are a little lower pressure because they judge puppies' potential. Within puppy stakes, there are two main types of runs.
Open puppy stakes: any puppy *of eligible breed* between 6 and 18 months old. No birds hidden in the field, no gunshots on the course, 15-20 minutes running.
Derby stakes: any puppy of eligible breed between 6 and 27 months old. At least two birds hidden in the field, puppy needs to point birds if encountered, gunshots, 20-30 minutes.
We run open puppy for now. Here's how this goes:
We are randomly paired with another puppy and handler (this pairing is called a brace, the other handler and dog are our bracemates). We walk up to the start line together (usually the entrance to a big pasture) with our puppies on leash. Two judges (on ATV or horseback) give us a quick overview of the course we have to walk. The course is usually through a big open field with medium cover (think knee high grasses and shrubs, some wetlands, some hills but no forest) and typically avoids fencelines or roads. They tell us to release our dogs at the same time, so we let the dogs off leash and start walking (very fast, and I'm a fast walker to begin with). The course is usually huge, much bigger than we could possibly walk in 20 mins.
Usually the puppies play a little bit and then get to work. The judges are looking for puppies who can ignore the other dog and handler, judges, ATV, horses, and spectators, hunt independently, cover lots of ground (move fast and steady across the terrain while still sniffing), use the wind to follow scent, and respond to their handlers' directions. If the puppies want to play too much, the judges will ask the handlers to split up a little bit to encourage the puppies to work independently. Usually you stick within about 10m (25ft) of your bracemate. Puppies can range anywhere as long as they stay visible and ahead of their handlers. (Puppies are often about several hundred metres/yards away from their handlers depending on breed. Rory ranges about 50-100m in real life and about 75-300m in field trials. It is an exhilarating exercise in trust in my training.)
The judges follow behind us and then spectators can follow behind the judges, if they want. We have to keep up a very fast pace to encourage the puppies to cover as much ground as possible, not at a jog but pretty close.
In puppy stakes, you want to keep as quiet as you can. The judges are looking for instinct and basic potential, so you don't want to ruin that by giving your dog tons of directions. If your puppy follows directions, that suggests they need directions to function. If your dog ignores directions, that's unresponsive and also bad. Ideally you shouldn't say much during your run unless there's danger (if a deer runs out, you would recall your puppy) or evils (if your puppy is eating poop, you could recall or redirect). You are allowed to chat with your bracemate but you have to hustle fast so it's usually friendly but minimal.
One important piece of open puppy stakes is that there are no planted birds in the field! There may be wild birds, but it's unlikely. Many people "over train" their bird dog puppies on live birds, and then the puppies get really frustrated that there are no birds in the field after they search so hard. This causes puppies to slow down or give up entirely during their run, so this is something that judges look for. In real life hunting, there's no guarantee of birds so it's important that puppies can work through frustration without losing enthusiasm.
The judges kind of shout directions (go left, head for those trees) from behind to keep us on course. In the best courses, the judges make you walk a loop, but sometimes your time ends in the middle of a field. When your time is up, the judges will thank you and tell you to leash your dog. We recall our puppies and put them on leash and walk them back to our cars for water and snacks.
That's the whole run for open puppy! It's very low pressure. The puppies basically just follow their hearts and do what they were made to do.
Derby is extremely similar, except there are birds planted in the field. The puppies don't HAVE to find birds but obviously its preferable that they do. If they find birds, they must point (stop moving and stand still staring at the bird). They don't have to be steady to flush or shot (they can chase when the bird flies or when the gun goes off), and only blanks are shot in derby. The course is a little longer but everything else is the same.
In open puppy and derby stakes, the judges are just looking for potential. They want to know if your dog would be competitive in the senior stakes, so they're looking for lots of independence, lots of bird drive, lots of stamina, things like that. Because they're judging potential, younger puppies may be judged a little easier than older puppies.
I think that's the gist of puppy stakes in CKC pointing field trials! Send me a message if you have questions about our experience so far!

I've done math for my spinning project. I want 1500m of two ply yarn in order to knit a ring shawl. My last sample was 45m and weighed 3g - 15m/g is right on target!
I forgot to weigh my spindles when they were empty, but near the start of the project my bigger spindle was 38g and the smaller one was 23.4g
As nice as it would be to have 150m/10g hanks to work with, I'm not sure I can fit 5g on each spindle, so for this first bit I'm going to hope for 100m (6.6g)
Currently my bigger spindle weighs 39.99g and the smaller one is at 25g.
I'm going to aim for 41g and 26.4g before I wind off and ply. This is the fiber I need to add to the smaller spindle.
(with a little extra for waste)
It looks like such a big pile! I wonder how much of it I can get spun tonight

This most recent bout of covid seems to come with 24/7 migraines, which my migraine medication is not helping with very much at all, and i also am dealing with a slipping rib flare up so laying in bed is very painful. So trying to find something i can do that doesnt worsen the migraine is not easy. I was knitting for a while but even if im not looking at a screen just having my eyes open hurts pretty bad.
Anyway, i tried spinning last night with the lights off
Did not go very well. In part because this batt really could have used another pass on the blending board, in part because i apparently really need my eyes to spin. Also found out that the sound of my wheel is too loud and my hips hurt too bad to treadle anyway.
Well, i tried.
