Dear Friends
The world is now counting down hours to
this year’s Puppy Bowl XIX! It will be aired tomorrow, Feb. 12th,
11 am PST, on Animal Planet. It will be Team Ruff vs. Team Fluff. Only puppies
between 12 and 21 weeks can compete and there are height and weight limitations.
Puppies must show they are well socialized with people and other puppies, and
they must have had their full range of vaccinations. All this according to
Google.
It seems, therefore, that this is the time
to make a public confession. Recently, (Kathleen was
out of town) I saw some cookies in the pantry, wondering why they were
on the bottom shelf and not with the other cookies. After eating five of them
(they were delicious) I realized they were not for me but for one of my
grandpups named Sirius!! I quickly read the label of ingredients, made sure we
had 7-up in the fridge, and waited, hoping this would not require any urgent
care.
I am happy to say that I am fine---no side or after effects, except all the stop signs I come to say SPOT. In the future, I will be sure and read more carefully what packages say. In other words, I will paws before eating!
I will certainly avoid another package in our pantry which says “Temptations, Rocky Lobster flavor, crunchy outside, soft inside, under 2 calories per treat” and then, in fine print, “treats for cats”. I would only eat them if it was for a good claws.
