Mom and dad took me to the place where the rooms are white and they poke around at your body, put sharp things in you, and then give you dog biscuits. They brought Caligula too. He was really scared. A guy that mom and dad call "The Vet" came to look at us, Caligula first, and "The Vet" kept calling him a her. I know he's a pussy cat, but he's still a he. I hear there's even things like female dogs... like the one next door. "The Vet" looked at me with a thing that shown into my eyes. It was really bright and I didn't like it so I tried to bite his hand. Dad got mad. It wasn't that bad, and I don't hurt that much from where they poked me. I think the guy was a little freaked out by my frosted navy blue nail polish.

A box arrived in the mail today. It smelled like it had good stuff in it. Mom told me it was not for me, and she put it up on the table. There were a bunch of little packages in it, all wrapped up in pretty paper. I knew that it was for me, though; I could smell it. It also smelled like grandma and grandpa. I knew it wasn't people food or anything, so I didn't feel I was doing anything bad by climbing up on a chair and pulling it off the table while mom was upstairs working. There were a bunch of rubber dog bones and a weiner dog squeak toy, and a velvet bone, and some stupid cat toys that I didn't bother with much. When dad came home, he laughed at all the toys on the floor. Mom came down the stairs and was shocked that all the packages had been opened. They are still under the impression that the cats knocked the packages on the floor and I just did my duty as Plato of unwrapping them. I don't think I'll tell them the truth...I'd rather have Caligula get in trouble.
