Dear Terry, We had some scary excitement here today. Mom says to tell you that no kitties were hurt. Petey has been bad again. He keeps opening cabinets and throwing stuff out. Mom's not so happy about that. This morning, Dad was putting his coat in the closet and Petey jumped in. But I was the only who saw him go in there. I knew it was trouble. Petey isn't allowed in the closets. He makes a mess out of whatever is in there. Dad shut the door and Petey was inside. At first he didn't make a peep. I'm not sure he realized that he couldn't get out. I was right there by the door. Then he tried to get out and couldn't and he panicked. MEOW MEOW MEOW. Mom didn't hear him. Dad didn't hear him. They were downstairs! Mom was getting ready to leave for work. Oh no! MEOW MEOW MEOW. Mom came to say good bye to me like she always does and she finally heard him. She said Fred? Where's the Cat? She opened up the door and Petey flew out and landed right on her shoulder! Mom said he jumped from the top of the hangers. She told Petey everything was OK and pretty soon he was purring. Good sign! Mom put him down once he was settled down and I sniffed him from the tips of his ears all the way to his tail. He was OK! Petey said WHEW! He sure was glad to see all of us! What a day! We took a nap together after all that excitement!
Love and Woofs, FredDog
P.S. Petey Cat here. That was scary. I was in the dark and I couldn't get the door open and Fred wasn't getting Mom or Dad. Dad never saw me go in the closet. I wanted to see what was in there and why I'm not allowed in there. Mom says it's becasue I take everything out instead of leaving everything in it's place. All I know is that I was sure glad to see Mom open that door! I was even glad to see FredDog. He let me lay down and take a nap with him. I sleep under his tail and rest my head on him. Maybe I won't chase him so much anymore. Maybe. I have to think on that some more.
ROARRRRRR Petey Cat
Me! FredDog

Dear Terry, Santa outdid himself this year for my gift! I got big bag of chew bones. All for me! AND instead of biscuits, he left me a whole bowl of chicken stew. It had peas and carrots and chicken and some taters in there! I could smell it as soon as I got up and I pushed past Petey and ran into the kitchen and there it was in my bowl!! You should have smelled it. What a great gift! Mom said Santa must have thought I have been extra good to give me such a treat! I worked on that chew bone all day long. Nothing better then something to chew on for the day. I haven't had one in awhile. CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP. Then me and Mom went for a walk in the woods. Not a long one though because it was late and getting dark. OH! And Grammy got me a glow in the dark leash! Me and Mom tested it out last night in the driveway. Mom can make it blink. I'm not sure I like it blinking but I kept turning around to see the glowing part. We had a lot of fun! Petey and Penny Cat got good stinky fishy food. They gobbled that right down! Mom even gave them jingle balls to play with in the basement. They have to keep them down there because I might accidentally eat them and Dad always steps on them. Hope you had a good Christmas and I hope Santa brought Newton the best biscuits ever!

Dear Terry, Santa is coming soon! I know it! Me and Mom and Dad have been busy decorating to make sure Santa can find the house ok. Oh and we went to Nolan's Birthday Party. Meatloaf is good! so are mashed taters! Only I wasn't so good sometimes and I had to sit separate from everyone for a little bit until I could calm down. But only a little bit. I like to watch the gifts getting open. Everyone is always in a good mood at birthday parties! I even slept in Grandpap's lap for a little bit. I sure was wore out. We had snacks at night. I got to have crackers! and cheese! how can you beat that for fun!? We had a long drive home. Dad was really pooped out. We both slept while Mom drove the whole way. As soon as I got home I ran and found Petey Cat. He was meowing on the kitchen table. It sure was good to see my friend again. Penny Cat even came out and kissed me on the nose. She must have missed me too! Mom says you might be coming to see us soon. I can't wait to see you again Friend!! Wait until you meet Petey! Did you make a list for Santa? I asked Santa for frosted biscuits with sprinkles. I ask for those every year and every year Santa comes though for me and like magic they are on the counter for me Christmas Morning! Petey Cat is skeptical. He says how does Santa come in the house without us knowing? I said he comes in while we are sleeping and leaves us special treats! But you have to be GOOD. He's been bad. He steals ornaments off the tree and Mom has been finding them everywhere! She even found one in the litter box! PETEYNOOOOOO!
Oh I can't wait to see you Terry, Love and Woofs, FredDog!!

Dear Santa, Mom says I came up with a pretty good list this year, even though it looks a lot like last year's list. I thought I would tell you all the good things I did this year.
Good Things:
1. I learned how to play nice with my cat friends. Now I only chase Petey Cat when we play. And I hardly ever sit on him anymore when he annoys me. I think that's pretty good.
2. I hardly ever make Penny Cat fluffy. Not since I learned that cats have claws and aren't afraid to use them to put an eye out.
3. I help Dad all the time, especially when he doesn't feel good.
4. I don't steal underpants anymore. Hardly.
5. I bark real loud when anyone comes on the property to let Mom and Dad know something is going on.
6. I protected Mom in the park from weirdos.
7. I let Petey Cat sometimes eat my food. And I even let him sleep next to me and use me as a pillow.
See, Santa??? I've worked hard at being good!! What I would really like for Christams are some of those frosted biscuits you bring me every year on a plate!! The kind with the sprinkles on them. Maybe you could bring little ones for Petey and Penny Cat. We like any flavors. I already have my Christmas Collar on because I can barely stand the wait until the holiday gets here!

Dear Terry, I almost have my letter to Santa ready. Mom is helping me with the writing part. Petey is going to make a list too. He said his was pretty short. AND you won't believe who Dad found in the closet today! Santa!! He lights up. Mom says it is the real Santa's way of watching me and Petey. He doesn't watch Penny Cat because she's good all the time. I met Santa you know. I have the pictures to prove it too! Mom says me and Petey better come up with some good lists. She said Santa has his eyes on us. I believe her too. Oh and Mom put candles in the windows. She had to tape them down because me and Petey kept knocking them over. She said Duct tape is the best thing ever for Christmas ornaments. And The Tree goes up this weekend. We were going to do it last week but we got side tracked. Better go! I hear Petey making noise!! PETEYNOOOOO is his real name.

Dear Terry, Mom's really been working hard lately and we haven't written. She says I have to get my list to Santa ready. I'll be sending that soon! We tried to go for a walk yesterday and I was really excited about it. But it got wayyy to scary for me. Someone was shooting a gun in the woods. I don't like that. I started to panic and I forgot where the car was and I couldn't think straight. Mom sat down on the ground with me and held me tight and covered my ears until I could think again. She told me we would go right back to the car. That noise is so loud I never know what to do. Mom always knows though and she helps me out no matter how scared I am. When we got home Mom told Dad how scared I was and I snuggled in with him and watched football. Well, kind of watched football. We fell asleep! I better go see what Petey Cat is doing. He's never far away but I don't hear him at all. Mom says that usually means trouble! Sounds like fun to me !!

Dear Terry, Thanksgiving is over! And what a day it was! Mom and Dad and me got up early and starting baking stuff. Mom and Dad made a pie and some kind of cranberry thing. And I knew there was turkey coming up! Mom got out on of her special tablecloths for the table. She always gets out the special dishes too. The Breakables. Petey Cat didn't know what was going on. He sampled some raw egg that mom was going to use. YUCKO! Mom says his name should be Peteynoooo. He helped me look in the oven window as things were cooking. We helped Mom start to put up the Christmas stuff too while all the food was cooking. Oh and me and Mom went for a big walk in the park. I was tired after that but we had so much fun! When we got home, Mom was going to get out the Breakable Dishes. Then it happened. PETEYNOOOOOO. He pulled the tablecloth right off the table!!! I stood there with Mom, staring at the table. OH boy this wasn't good. Even worse, Petey kept playing with the tablecloth. Mom let out a big SIGH. I guess I won't be getting out the Pretty Dishes this year....Dad said, you better not... I said Woof! And Petey Cat said ROARRRRRRR and played some more with the tablecloth on the floor. Mom did give us all a little bit of turkey later on though! And I got to have a crescent roll with gravy! My favorite! Then we all watched TV. Me and Mom and Dad and Petey and Penny Cat.
Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!

Dear Terry, Guess what!? I went to the Pet Palace and Mom and Dad took a trip to eat some good food. At first I was nervous. I hadn't been there in awhile. But Mom made sure I had my bed with me and my blanket. Then I got to play with the other dogs non stop almost! I could run and bark and be silly. I liked all the dogs there. Before I knew it, Mom was there to pick me up! I ran and pulled when I saw Mom. It seemed like forever since I had seen her! The kennel lady let go of the leash so I could get to Mom faster. Mom gave me a big hug and when I got home I ran straight to Dad and then Petey and Penny! It was so good to see everyone! Me and Petey couldn't stop chasing each other. We laid down with Mom in the bed and fell asleep. All of us sure were tired!

Dear Terry, Me and Mom went for a walk today in the park. We were the only ones there! How can everyone stay inside on a great fall day??? You know what we saw?? Deer! Lots of deer! They ran everywhere. I barked real loud at them. Then all we saw were their white butts running up the big hill! Oh and we walked down by the water too. Guess what we saw there!?? The Mallards! They went swooshhhh into the water when we got to close to them. QUACK QUACK. I didn't bark though. They eat sea monsters in the water so you can't upset them. Me and Mom also made some Christmas Cards today. I got to help write what's on the card. Mom said I did a good job! Dad laughed when he saw what we had made. Mom says we can't send them out yet because we have to wait until after Turkey Day. I like Turkey Day. Mom and Dad make lots of food that day! We share it all too. Petey doesn't know what Turkey Day is so I had to tell him all about it. He likes turkey too he said. I told him about how Santa comes and brings really good frosted biscuits too on Christmas Day but since he's bad a lot he might not get any. Mom says Santa doesn't think any kitten can really be bad so she thinks he will probably get a treat. I don't know about that.
Barks and Wags, FredDog
P.S. Petey Cat here. I don't know who this Santa guy is but FredDog says that you have to be really good for him to give you special treats. I'm a little worried about that. I do a lot of bad stuff by accident. Mom says Santa is pretty forgiving of kittens. I hope so! But is it really bad to smack the dog just because he might sit on me??? I've got a lot of thinking to do about this...ROARRRRRR.

Dear Terry, Did you hear the wind last night?? Me and Mom went outside and my ears blew straight up in the air! I could hear real good then! Oh and all the smells! And there were deer in the backyard! I told Petey all about it. I tried to tell Penny but all she wanted was her night time food. She didn't even kiss me! She must have been hungry. Oh and Dad and Pap went to the store together earlier today. My favorite store too, the Tractor Supply. Only I wasn't allowed to go. Mom had forgotten to buy my food! So I had no food in the morning but she made pretend food by putting Milk Bones in my dish for me until Dad could get the real stuff. Guess what flavor Pap picked out for me? FISH! YUMMY. I love Fish. Well, not when they are in the water becasue they look like sea monsters. But when they are in my bowl, they are tasty! That's why I like cat food! Oh and Mom gives me snibbles of salmon to eat sometimes too. What a good day!!

Dear Terry, Petey Cat sure is tricky! We were playing and he decided to play hide n seek. I chase him until he runs then he finds a good spot to hide in. And then he pops back out and we take off running again only he chases me. But this time he was really tricky. He ran behind the sofa and never came out! Where was Petey Cat?? Not even a meow meow. No tail. No feet. I ran to the side then to the other side. No Petey! Then I figured out how I could could go behind the couch, I was sure he was behind it. NO CAT. HUMPPH. I could smell him but I couldn"t see him. Where was he??? WOOO WOOOFFFWOOOFFFFFF. I howled. No Petey. Then something touched my foot and I flew backwards!! Hey that was his foot! It came from IN THE COUCH. how could this be??? So I jumped up on the couch and he got me with another foot through the cushions! I couldn't stop barking! We played and played then it went quiet. I waited and waited. maybe he got tired. After awhile I got tired so I slept right on that cushion. When I woke up Petey was sleeping right next to me. HEY! I can't figure out his trick yet but it sure was fun!

Dear Terry, Me and Petey Cat have been busy. Last night we had to help Mom find one of the remotes Dad lost again. Dad looses lots of stuff and Mom is always looking for things. I told Petey Cat we have to help Mom when she looks for stuff. This time she took the secret doors off the back of the recliner sofa. It's pretty neat, you pull the fabric and it makes a RIPPPPPPP sound and you can see what's in the secret place. Mom says that is the Velcro that makes that noise. I like to stick my head in there when it storms. And Petey uses the space to put all his toys. Mom said WOW! Look at all these toys! Petey said those are mine! We did find the remote. But not in the sofa. It was in Dad's slipper. I don't know why he puts things in crazy spots. Mom put the secret panel back and made sure to put Petey's toys back in there for safe keeping. Petey pulled back a corner to check and make sure everything was how he liked it. Oh and I helped Dad on the deck too. He was sweeping off the leaves. They were flying in the air and all over the place! What fun that was! Me and Petey woke Mom up this morning too. Bright and early! We didn't mean to, but the birds were right outside the window and me and Petey Cat were talking to them! Woof WOOF! ROARRRRRRR! It was very exciting! I better go help Mom get ready for the day!

Dear Terry, Me and Petey Cat got in some trouble. It was all his fault. He was sitting in Mom's lap!! He knows not to do that! Then he was poking me in the head and I kept jerking around to see what he was doing. Mom wasn't saying anything she was trying to relax and watch some TV. Then, I couldn't take it any more. He wasn't even trying to share Mom. He was hogging her WHOLE lap. I got a running start and jumped on Mom. Petey got squished like I wanted. And Mom got mad like I didn't want. FRED! PETEY! Petey went flying because I pushed him off Mom, and Dad said HEYYYYY!! And the recliner kind of tipped and I jumped down and sat on Mom's foot. That's what I have to do when I get in trouble. Sit. Mom says it's so I can get my head on straight and hear myself think again. WOOF WOOF. Stupid cat got me in trouble. Once Mom got all settled in again, I jumped up and licked her face to tell her I love you Mom. She let me sit there and petted and petted me until I fell asleep. Petey slept on the back of the chair nice and quiet. He didn't tease me at all after all that. And we didn't break anything this time either. Mom says we need a little more work on the sharing thing yet. I agree! Petey has to know that I come first then everything will be OK!
Love and Woofs, FredDog
P.S. Petey Cat here. That dumb dog nearly flattened me jumping up on Mom like that. I'll get him back for that. He can't stand it when I sit in his food bowl. Mom says it's not nice to say Dumb Dog but I don't know any bad words yet.....Mom likes me best, it's time he figures that out.....ROARRRRRRR!!

Mom says it's not nice to say Dumb Dog but I don't know any bad words yet.....Mom likes me best, it's time he figures that out.....ROARRRRRRR!!

Dear Terry, Yesterday was Halloween!!!! Yay me!! Mom and me celebrated by eating some candy corn. Today we are going to take a Halloween walk in the woods. Mom puts on her Halloween shirt and Dad usually comes with us and he puts his Halloween shirt on too and we go walking in the woods! That's what we do! Mom gave me another piece of candy corn this morning. They must be pretty valuable because she only ever gives me one. I make sure to enjoy every bit of flavor. Oh and Mom and Dad and me were just out on the deck and they had the ladder out!! That means Mom is going up on the roof! I don't like her up there so I get a good spot where I can watch her every move up there. Up, Up she went and pretty soon leaves were flying out of the gutters everywhere! She works slow up there. Dad says that's so she doesn't get hurt or fall. I can't stand it. She was out of sight for a little but I could still hear her. I woofed real soft. Mom heard me though and she said, Don't worry Fred! I'm almost done! And sure enough she came back down the ladder. Dad's job is to hold the ladder. He doesn't like going up on things and he can never fall again. We make sure he stays on the ground. I'm not allowed on the ladder either. My job is to sit and watch and listen for Mom. I did a really good job and Mom said I could have a second piece of candy corn!! OH MY GOSH!!! I didn't share at all with Petey. Me, Petey and Penny are working hard to be friends. Petey and me sleep next to each other every single night and he keeps my nose warm with his tail. Last night he was laying curled up on my back and he started mushing and mushing and I didn't know what to do! Mom says that means he is really happy to have me as a friend. Dogs don't do that. Mom said it is another one of his special powers.
Hope you had a great Halloween!

Dear Terry, Boy Petey Cat sure can run. He runs past me and over me and under me and all around me. I bark. He still doesn't understand that Mom is mine. I sit next to her. And I sit on him when he tries to sit next to Mom. But he is pretty nice when he lays down next to me. This morning he snuggled in right next to me in the covers! He didn't bite my tail, He didn't poke me in the face with his paw. He was purring though! It's like magic when he does that. I can't purr, It comes out a growl. He won't tell me how it does it either. Mom says that's one of his special powers. He has a lot of those. Mom says let's be thankful he uses his powers for good and not bad!

Dear Terry, Petey and I had a sleepover. Mom let us run free in the house all night long. Well, not all night. Part of the night because things got a little out of hand. First we played and played. Then Mom went to bed. We had to decide who was going to sleep where. I got all settled in my usual spot next to Mom and Petey wanted there too. He started pawing at me and reaching for my eyes. I moved. Then he picked another spot altogether!! I barked right in his face. It took us a bit, but we finally all got settled in some good spots on the bed and Mom got out some treats for me and Petey. I showed Petey how I do my tricks and get a treat. I think he is catching on. Then we all went to sleep watching TV. Afterwhile Petey woke up and started playing with my tail and then my feet. And then my ears. And my nose. Wap wap wap. I woke up and he was standing on me and we started to play. I said we can't wake Mom up but we kind of forgot and started rolling in the covers because that's so much fun! Pretty soon Mom woke up because she had no covers on! We had ripped them all off the bed and some of the pillows were on the floor and somehow my food dish was knocked over. Oh boy. Mom had to get up in the middle of the night and fix everything. She shooed Petey out of the bedroom and told me to go lay down. Everything was OK though in the morning! And we didn't break anything that time.

Dear Terry, The other night Mom took me outside and I started growling and growling and barking. I had to protect Mom!! There was SOMETHING in the neighbor's yard. And it was moving! GRRRRRRR I almost ripped the leash out of her hand. I dragged her over to it and...Oh, it was a big leaf! Ooops! Woof Woof!
Last night Petey and I were running around trying to play. But he was being mean again and sat in my spot on the couch. I was able to bark in his face and make him move a little bit. But when he sat down next to Mom on the other couch No Way. That is MY SPOT. I tried to nose him out of the way. I poked him with my paw to move him. He wasn't budging. I jumped up and barked. Still didn't move. So I sat on him. That's right I sat on him. That showed him! Only he wriggled out from under my butt and head butted me. I did get my spot next to Mom though and we all watched TV together with Dad. Mom says to be careful sitting on Petey because he may not be so nice next time around!
So if anyone is bothering you Terry, I say sit on them. It works! Woof!

Dear Terry, Boy I was so tired yesterday that I didn't even eat my food. Me and Mom went for a walk in the cold windy air. I love it when it's like that outside. We saw lots of things at the park and we lost all track of time and when we got home Dad said THERE you are! I barked to let him know I was right there at his feet! Dad said the apple cider was finished. Mom had made that from scratch. I was right there when she was cutting up the apples. The whole house smelled like them. Mom and Dad sat down and had some to warm up. Then Dad let Petey out so I could play with him. We played and played. We still aren't allowed to be alone together. Mom says she wants the house to stay standing. Tonight I'm going to teach Petey how the couches are mine but maybe if he asks me I will let him sit with me. We did watch TV together last night. And for a little while we looked out the front window together because we both heard a sound. But then Petey sat in my seat again. I stood there and just barked at him and he didn't even move! All he did was grow tall and swat at my nose. So I barked some more. WOOF WOOF. He never did move. I had to go lay down on the floor. Humph. Then me and Mom went to bed to sleep and before I knew it, it was morning! How did that happen??? What a good day it was!
Hope you had a good barking day!

Dear Terry, Guess what me and Petey have been doing? Playing! Well I play, he tries to figure out what I'm doing. No one has lost any eyes. Last night, I even licked him on the head some so he would know that I was only playing. Mom said, Fred are you being nice or are you tasting testing??? Petey started being mean though last night. Mom said he had enough of Fred Play. First he laid down in My Spot on the couch. I chased him out of there. Then he went to my Other Spot on the couch right next to Mom. I really didn't like that. He was doing it on purpose. I could tell. When I tried to chase him out of there he sat up reallllly talll and reached out and slowly swiped at my nose. I jumped back at least 10 feet. WHEW! He didn't have his claws out. Mom said that was a warning. Petey wasn't hissing or growling. But I got the message, Tall Petey means get away doggie! I wonder how he can make himself so tall like that. I wish sometimes I was tall. I could reach things on the counter. Or maybe see outside better. Mom says I'm just the right size and don't worry about it because cats have special powers like that. Oh and guess what else?? I saw snow today out the front window and I barked and barked at it. I don't know why I bark when it snows but I do.
