MITTENS IS WORRIED
© 2000 Lorraine Dahl
Hi Kenny,
(Whispering) There is a conspiracy going on around here! I just know it! Linda and Lorraine are doing lots of whispering and LOTS of giggling while they are looking through a pet supply catalog.
They FORGET how acute my hearing is. I’ve picked up words I have NEVER heard before like harness, leash and (get this!) SWEATER!! Linda left the catalog on the couch and I saw EXACTLY what a SWEATER is! Ohhhhh Nooooo! Ah, the HUMILIATION OF IT ALL!
Kenny, I would just DIE if they made me wear a SWEATER! I know I would and if for some reason I didn’t die, I’d pray for immediate death, of THAT you can be SURE!
They put Brigette the dog’s sweater on her and called me to look at her. She looked like a big fat green sausage!
Please write to Lorraine and Linda. Tell them it’s MUCH too COLD outside for me to be taken for walks and you would rather they didn’t. PLEASE KENNY!! If you REALLY LOVE me you will write the letter NOW!!
I would be ashamed to show my pretty little face outside (or inside, for that matter) if they pull off this embarrassing fiasco. Woe is me! Write the letter NOW.
Love,
Mittens
