Scratchy's diary: My February 14 treat
February 13th 2010 22:11
The Big Boss was particularly affectionate to the Little Boss this morning, as if February 14 is some special day. He called her "Valentine". That's a new one — how many names can one person have?
Anyway, he finally stopped with the affection and asked Little Boss if she would like some breakfast in bed.
"I would," she said.
"I would too," I said, but I don't think he heard me.
However, as the old saying goes, it's the persistent dog which catches the leatherwood honey on soy and linseed light rye (although I'd accept margarine on cheap white), and so I followed Big Boss to the food room.
"Can I have a piece of toast?" I asked, with just that right mix of politeness and respect which I have found, from long experience, lets hoomans think they are pack leaders.
"You've already had breakfast," he said.
Drats. I was hoping he'd forgotten.
"Oh, I know that," I said, with a self-deprecating smile, "but just this once, couldn't you show how much you love me with a little extra something?"
And, amazingly, he gave me an extra bit of toast.
Maybe there is something special about February 14.
