Once I start work it will probably be more than 8 hours, I don't feel bad about that. They just spend their days sleeping. Mitsu is her kennel an Teagan has the whole house to herself. We put a bench infront of the window so teagan can spend her day looking out the window and creeping on the neighbors, plus we were always finding her up on the kitchen table looking out the window when we came home so the bench was the solution to that.
