Dear Terry, Sorry I haven't written in awhile. It's been too hot to do anything but lay around. But I got in BIG trouble today. Mom came home and I could smell a special treat for me! She got me a fresh pig ear straight from the butcher! YUM! Mom gave it to me and I was happily munching on it little bit at a time. Every piece was piggy goodness. UNTIL Petey came up to me and tried to TAKE IT. I SNARLED and I lunged at him and scared him real bad. I didn't bite him but I showed him all my teeth. Mom yelled at me right away and Dad yelled at me right away and I grabbed my pig ear and went to leave the room but Mom stopped me. She tried to take the pig ear. I didn't let go at first. I don't growl at Mom or show her my teeth. She's Mom. But that doesn't mean I was going to give her the pig ear. She said FRED RIGHT NOW and I dropped it like I'm supposed to. I had to settle my butt down and then she made sure I knew that she can take that pig ear away again if I even looked at anyone wrong. We played give and take with it for a few minutes. She gives, I take. Then I give and she takes. Then I was allowed to have it all to myself. And I ate every last scrap of it! YUMMY! But you know what?? That PETEY didn't get in trouble at all for trying to take it from me in the first place!! HUMPHHHH.

Love and Woofs, FredDog

P.S. Petey Cat here. That crazy dog tried to kill me. I swear! Mom says quit being dramatic he didn't even touch you and you tried to take his pig ear. Don't worry I got him back later on when he was trying to be nice to me. Outta the blue I hit him in the face with everything I had in my front paw. Right in the kisser! Then I ran like hell through the house before anyone could catch me! OK, maybe he didn't try and kill me but he sure did scare me with all those teeth so I think I'm justified in smacking him silly in the snoot. Then we laid down together and took a rest. And we got a drink together out of the water bowl. I should have splashed him.

ROARRRRRR! Petey Cat.
