My human mom is letting me have a page just for me. I am telling my story. It starts when I am still with my birth mom and siblings. Us babies were kept out on a hot balcony with no shade from sun. We were also not allowed to spend a lot of time with our mommy. I was hungry and thirsty. My coat was all stuck down. They never cleaned up the mess out there. I got so hungry that I tried to eat my mom's food. She did not like it so she hurt me. I had trouble eating or drinking for quite awhile. They never took me to the doctor. I was only about 3 weeks old.
I am now 51/2 weeks old. Some one came to look at us. I was hoping they would pick me but they didn't. I was disapointed. Then some one else came. I made such a racket that she picked me up. I knew then that I was saved. I gave her so many kisses that she could not say no. Well it worked. She took me to the man and he loved me too. She talked to the lady and wrapped me up. The next thing I remember is being carried out to somewhere I didn't know. My new mom was talking to my new dad. They did not know what to call me. MMMM! The smells here I did not know. All I could do was sniff the air.
What is this I am hearing over and over again. I like it. They were saying Sherlock. What is a Sherlock? I did not understand. It seemed that every time they would want me they would say this word. Okay this must be my name. I heard them say that with my sniffing the air so much that my nose was going to get me in trouble. And this Sherlock Holmes, what is it? They said that this is who I reminded them of. Oh well I like it.
Mom took me somewhere. I thought that she was going to leave me here. The dog here was bigger than me. I did not like him. The human here liked me too. When they left, they took me with them. Oh oh, This big thing is coming and I don't like it. Mom held me real close and talked to me. She said that we were going home. That sounded so nice. All kinds of people were petting me and saying "How cute". They were talking about me. I liked that. I got to get me all kinds of this stuff.
I think I want to go back to where I come from. This is all strange. What are these. They are like me but different. I think mom calls them cats. Oh oh, here comes someone I don't know. MMM! she is nice. I think she likes me. She is licking me and talking to me. Oh, she told me that I am in my new home and that I picked right. She lets me cuddle to her and she helps to look after me. She told me that her name is Nala. The other ones are Sparkles and Precious. Look out coming throught. Food, lots of food. I want some, oh and water. Good. She was right. I have all I need. I have a Mom and Dad, sisters, lots of food and water and a home. I like it here. I am so tired. I think I want to go to sleep. Nitey Nite.
Well it is a month later and I am so glad they brought me home here. They love me very much. I can feel it Especially from Mom. She cuddles with me and plays with me. She is loved right back. I can't help myself. Nala sleeps with me and plays with me. I can't wait till Mom lets me outside with her. Mom says that I am still too small to go outside. Here is a picture of Mom and me. She sits with me like this all the time.
Mom says it won't be long before I can go outside with Nala. She says I can't go out now because I am too small and might get hurt. Mom says that Nala has some big holes out there that I could fall in and get hurt. I don't think I am too small. I want to go outside. I think she is being mean to me for not letting me out. She will only let me out on my leash in the driveway or to go for a walk. Well at least she lets me make friends on the street. I have all kinds of friends. Little ones and big ones. I like them all.
Well I am getting bigger. Mom has started to let me out with Nala. We have lots of fun. I chase her then she chases me around the backyard. She is so fast that she knocks me down. I think she lets me knock her down. Nala is a lot bigger than me. You know what. She lets me chase her tail. I don't have one to chase. You know it is getting cold out now. Mom says she can't wait for me to see the first snow. I wish I knew what that was.
Mom says I am getting too big for my britches. MM what are they. I think I just found out. Just tried to tell Mom I was going to do this and she said that I wasn't. I think she meant what she said. She has talked cross at me before but not like this. When she talks like that, I know I have done something wrong. Mom is so mean. She won't let me do what I want.
Well I found something else I am not supposed to play with or chew. Every time I go any where near it she tells me NO. She says "Don't you touch that tree." I am bigger and she still won't let me do what I want. That's okay cause sometimes I like to do things just to see what Mom is going to say. Sometimes she gets mad at me. Other times she doesn't. OH OH I finally found out what snow is. What fun. Mom says I am a nut in the snow. I run around and try to catch it in my mouth. Dad throws a shovel full at me so I can jump up to catch it.
Mom just told me that today is my birthday. It is June 17. She says that makes me one year old. She says she has a present for me. I wonder what it is. She says she will give it to me later outside. I can't wait to see what it is. Oh good we are going out side. Does this mean I am going to get what she got me? I hope so.
Oh mom I like this. Glad you got it for me. Mom played with me for awhile. She through it down the yard and I chased it. We did this till I got tired. We just layed around for awhile and then it was time for mom to go and get Nala. HEY!!! she took my new ball in the house. Thats not fair.
