Dear Bacon

Dear Bacon,

I don’t get it.  Everyone calls me Spider Frog.  Why?  Can you explain that to me?  Signed Colorful

Dear Colorful,

Well my friend.  It could be because of your colors.  You see, Spiderman is a super hero.  His colors are blue and red.  And well, your colors are blue and red.  I wouldn’t be upset with your friends for calling you Spider Frog.  I would take it as a compliment that they think you are also a super hero – wear it with pride!

Dear Bacon,

It’s most embarrassing here in my crib.  My brother Al – well he has no clothes on.  He always wants to snuggle with *me* because he gets cold.  Can’t my humans get him a sweater or something?  What do you think?  Signed Eeww

Dear Eeww,

Well, Al is just a different kind of kitty than you my friend.  Not all of us can be born with such good lucks as us fully furred.  Just because he looks different doesn’t mean you should treat him different.  He’s your brother – your fellow purr thing if you will.  Give him a shoulder to lean on and cuddle once in a while.

Dear Bacon,

I love to swim.  I know it seems strange and I’m not suppose to like water but I do.  Better yet, I like to play catch with sticks IN water.  Do you think it’s wrong for me to be different?  Signed CatFish

Dear CatFish,
No.  It is not wrong for you to be different.  Every one of us have to walk our own path to happiness.  No one else needs to pass judgement.  Live your life and if it makes you happy swimming and fetching sticks, I say go for it my friend.

Dear Bacon,

So every morning I get up, go to the bathroom and look in the mirror.  I think my eyes are sagging just a bit.  You think?  Signed Primp

Dear Primp,
You know what?  May I make a suggestion?  Stop looking in the mirror.  There’s no reason for you to worry about such things.  You’re gorgeous as you are my friend.  Walk with your head held up high and be proud of who you are.

Dear Bacon,
What?  Why does everyone look at this picture and laugh?  I just don’t get it.  Can you please tell me why.  Signed Kitty

Dear Kitty,
Oh dear.  They’re not laughing my friend.  They are just looking at you and thinking what an amazing kitty you are.  You have talent.  I could *never* sit like that with my tail between my legs. Have you ever thought about joining a circus?
