Leo the Lab Report: I don't give enough kudos to my right-hand man, Deputy Ziggy, who tirelessly works to protect the premises from rodents and unwanted bird invasions. He's loyal to me, his superior officer, as well as to Jr. Deputy Guarddog-in-Training Marco. Ziggy is always willing to give his time to help train and strengthen Marco, teaching him wrestling techniques, stealth moves, and the finer points of security work. Every successful guarddog needs a good mentor, and Deputy Ziggy is one of the best. #Guardkitty #DeputyZiggy #Guarddog #Marco #Training #Lakeboss #SecurityTeam

Leo the Lab Report: Huge breakthrough! Ever since the doggy door was locked because Ziggy—only doing his job—continually brought in rats and dead birds, Marco and I have been at the mercy of someone being available to open the slider for us. However, Marco suggested I try opening the slider myself. After some serious determination and professional guarddog ingenuity, I mastered the move! We're now free to go outside whenever duty calls without bothering anyone. There is one small problem, however... I haven't quite mastered how to close it yet! #guarddog #breakthrough #doggydoor #lakeboss #Marco #Guardkitty #LeotheLabReport

Leo the Lab Report: I was sick a few days ago. Loose bowels, to say the least. In other words, I was completely out of commission. Luckily, I had trained Marco, my Jr. Deputy Guarddog-in-Training, to patrol the premises and report any suspicious activity to Sr. Guardkitty Ziggy. While I recovered, they handled security with professionalism and dedication. We're a well-trained team, and our family can always count on us. #leothelabreport #guarddog #JrDeputy #Guardkitty #securityteam #lakeboss

Leo the Lab Report: When Jr. Deputy Marco, the Border-Collie puppy, takes a well-deserved break from his rigorous training sessions with Master Guardkitty Ziggy or me, he enjoys playing with his very long tail. It's even more fun when Mema joins in the game. #training #Guardkitty #guarddog #duties #lakeboss

Leo the Lab Report: Yesterday, Jr. Deputy Marco was informed that before his first birthday, he'll be expected to face a raccoon single-handedly while on perimeter patrol. After the initial shock wore off, he immediately scheduled a reflex-training session with Master Guardkitty Ziggy. Zig, famous for his patented choke hold and lightning-fast wrestling moves, put Marco through an intense training session. The two grappled, rolled, pounced, and sparred until the kid's timing was nearly flawless. One thing is certain—Marco takes his Guarddog duties seriously. Go Marco! #Marco #Ziggy #Wrestling #Guardkitty #LakeBoss #Guarddog

Leo the Lab Report: Even Sr. Deputy Ziggler falls prey to exhaustion after a double shift guarding the homestead from unwanted intruders — especially rats and mice. Though he may not approve of this picture being made public, the people deserve to know the truth. Behind the badge is a very distinguished expert in many fields carrying the emotional and physical burden of protecting the estate day and night. Guardkitty work isn’t glamorous. It’s sacrifice. It’s vigilance. It’s answering the call no matter the hour. And sometimes… it’s collapsing face first after a hard night on patrol. #Deputy #Guardkitty #lakeboss #guarddog #Lifesaver

Leo the Lab Report: I must say Deputy Ziggy and I are extremely close. A total bro-mance at times. He practically turns himself inside out showing me affection. Not always mind you — he has a reputation to maintain as Deputy Guardkitty — but occasionally, when no one else is around, he lets the tough guy act slip a little. #leothelabreport #Bromance #Deputy #guarddog #Guardkitty #lakeboss

Leo the Lab Report: Deputy Ziggy is always on high alert. Every unusual sound could signal danger… or unwelcome intruders lurking nearby. Especially rats and mice—which hopefully are no longer a problem—but in the guarddog business, you can never be too careful. Jr. Deputy Marco is learning quickly, studying under true masters of the craft. One thing is certain: the next generation of lake security is in very capable paws. #Deputy #LeoTheLabReport #RatPatrol #Guarddog #Guardkitty #LakeBoss

Leo the Lab Report: While at the market with Mema, proudly wearing my Security Dog uniform, I spotted something shocking at the checkout counter. For one glorious moment, I thought little Marco had made it big time… until I realized it was actually a cat on the cover of National Geographic magazine. A cat. On the cover. Of a national magazine. Naturally, I was stunned. Deputy Ziggy immediately claimed this was a major victory for the Guardkitty community. Marco, however, believes it proves he’s destined for fame too. Maybe one day Marco and I will make the cover of a national magazine ourselves. But for now, we’re on Amazon — and around here, that’s pretty awesome. @NatGeoAnimals #guarddog #Guardkitty #lakeboss

Leo the Lab Report: After a long morning protecting the homestead and overseeing boat security, I needed an emergency power nap before my afternoon rounds. That’s when Marco the Border-Collie puppy received his very first unsupervised guarddog assignment. He stood beside me the entire time—alert, focused, and ready for action at a moment’s notice. If danger appeared, his mission was clear: wake me immediately. Of course, unknown to Marco, Deputy Ziggy was secretly supervising the whole operation from the shadows… silently judging, monitoring, and making sure the rookie didn’t crack under pressure. The future of lake security may actually be in good paws. #guarddog #leothelabreport #puppy #lakeboss #Guardkitty #BorderCollie #PowerNapPatrol

Leo the Lab Report: After a grueling week on rat patrol, Deputy Ziggy—battle-tested, whiskers still twitching from combat—finally took a well-earned moment of rest. The homestead was quiet… too quiet. Enter Marco, the Border Collie puppy—Deputy Guarddog in training and full-time agent of chaos. Sensing an opportunity (or completely ignoring all boundaries), Marco launched into an unsolicited training session, practicing his “assistant guarddog” maneuvers directly on a resting war hero. But not so fast. Bro Rex intervened—swift, decisive—stopping Marco mid-pounce before the situation escalated into a full-blown interspecies incident. And Ziggy? Oh, Ziggy didn’t flinch. Because if you ask me… he wasn’t annoyed. He was playing hard to get. #guarddog #Guardkitty #deputyintraining #lakeboss #leothelifesaver

Leo the Lab Report 🐾 Deputy Ziggy is officially on 24/7 Rat Patrol—and this just got serious. The exterminator has confirmed it: sewer rats have infiltrated the homestead. Not a drill. Not a rumor. An invasion. Ziggy, our fearless Guardkitty, has stepped up like a seasoned pro—silent, watchful, relentless. While the professionals prepare for the full-scale operation, he’s holding the line… and doing it with precision. Last night’s discovery? What we thought was a mouse… Nope. A baby rat. Which means only one thing: Where there’s one… there are more. The stakes just went up. Ziggy isn’t just patrolling anymore—he’s defending the perimeter. Eyes sharp. Instincts sharper. No intruder gets a free pass. The homestead is on alert. The battle is underway. And Deputy Ziggy? He’s ready. 🐾 #invasion #ratsinsewer #Guardkitty #guarddog #lakeboss

Leo the Lab Report 🐾 Marco the Border-Collie puppy took his guarddog training to a bold new level today—using Deputy Ziggy, our seasoned Guardkitty, as his “practice opponent.” Ziggy, ever the professional, tolerated the drills with quiet dignity… right up until Marco deployed an unexpected tactical maneuver—the full sit-down face pin. I’ll admit… strong move. Effective. Questionable ethics. That’s when Ziggy decided the training session had officially concluded. No warnings. No appeals. Just a swift, silent shutdown from a veteran who’s seen it all. Lesson of the day: Even the most promising recruits must respect the rank of a Guardkitty. #Guardkitty #worklife #lakeboss #guarddog #training

Leo the Lab Report: Under the cover of darkness, Rat Patrol was activated. Deputy Ziggy—silent, calculating, eyes locked—identified the intruder before anyone else knew there was danger. With precision and a hunter’s instinct, he neutralized the threat in swift, decisive fashion. But victory came with… complications. Driven by pride, Ziggy attempted to parade his conquest into the house—a trophy of war. That’s when she intervened. A firm plea. A line drawn. No trophies allowed. A tense standoff followed. For now, the situation is contained… but the story isn’t over. Cleanup operations are underway. The exterminator has been called to handle what remains of the fallen intruder. Stay tuned. #rats #exterminator #Guardkitty #lakeboss

Leo the Lab Report: We’ve had a noticeable absence at the homestead… Deputy Ziggy the cat has been off assignment. Turns out, Mema temporarily promoted him to Executive Assistant—and let me tell you, he takes the role very seriously. Documents inspected. Papers supervised. Possibly sat on. Nothing gets past him. Ziggy is a cat of many talents—administrative genius by day, silent hunter by night. His contributions to this operation? Endless. Strategic. Occasionally covered in fur. But don’t worry… He’ll be back soon, slipping on that Guardkitty badge like the seasoned professional he is—ready to patrol the homestead alongside yours truly. Security will be tight. Eyes sharp. Tails… slightly judgmental. #administrativeassistant #geniuskitty #Guardkitty #lakeboss #guarddog

Leo the Lab Report 🐾: I owe a formal apology to my cousin Mars—also known as the legendary Marsie Bear. In a moment of questionable judgment, I assumed that such luxurious fur and undeniable star power could only belong to a she. I stand corrected. Mars, you are every bit the movie-star—gorgeous, polished, and clearly living the high life of pampering and admiration. A true icon. However… let the record show… While you may rule the red carpet, you will never rule the guard post. Guardkitty material? Not even close. 😎🐾 #cutecatpicture #leothelabreport #lakeboss #guarddog #Guardkitty

Leo the Lab Report 🐾✨ Meet our cousin Mars—also known as Marsie Bear—and let’s just clear something up right now… she is NOT a Guardkitty. Marsie Bear operates on a completely different level. While some of us are out here pulling security detail, running lake patrol, and handling emergency situations… Mars is living her best life as a full-time Maybelline Princess. We’re talking: Silk-level lounging. Five-star pampering. And a face that says, “Maybe she’s born with it… maybe it’s Marsie.” No stakeouts. No intruders. No rat duty. Just glamour, naps, and looking effortlessly fabulous. Frankly… she wouldn’t survive a single shift on guard duty. But would we survive her beauty routine? Also questionable. #cutekitty #Guardkitty #lakeboss #MaybellinePrincess #LeoTheLabReport

Leo the Lab Report: Deputy Ziggy the Kitty called for a rematch with Marco the Border-Collie puppy after he embarrassingly lost last time. He tried his famous choke hold, with little success. Marco the magnificent still holds the title. #wrestling #cagefighting #catanddogfight LakeBoss #guarddog #Guardkitty

Leo the Lab Report: Deputy Ziggy the Kitty doesn't play except with his toys. Marco the Border-Collie puppy decided he wanted to wrestle him. Ziggy went for his famous choke hold but Marco had some serious moves of his own. Luckily Ziggy escaped. Marco doesn't know how to go down the stairs! #WrestlingCommunity #cagefighting #lakeboss #guarddog #Guardkitty #worklife
