Paw Time with Houdini

   Barks my friends!  What a busy past couple of weeks we have had here at the Hotel Thompson.  So much going on with mommy.  She is really trying to feel better these days and has been to the doctor a couple of times.  It has a lot to do with the weather changing and getting a little bit cooler.  It’s really messing with Mr. Arthritis.  He seems like such a mean person.  I wish I could meet him.  I would bite his ankles for what he does to mom and dad at times.

I gotta tell you a story about someone I did meet this weekend here at the Hotel Thompson – right in my living room too.  There I was playing around in front of the fireplace.  That’s when i saw this other pooch staring at me.  Do you see him in the pictures below?  What the barks was he doing in *my* front room and how did he get in.  I stopped what I was doing, stared him down and barked like crazy at him.  But oh no, he kept hiding in the fireplace – what a wuss!

I sat there and waiting patiently – of course throwing in some growls and barks.  Then mom saw me and asked me what was going on.  Then she told me something amazing.  She said it was me in what she called a reflection in the glass.  OMD!!  No wonder that dog looked so handsome – it was me!  Barks – Barks – Barks

Well that’s all for me my friends – yawns – I hope you had a wonderful week as well.  Happy weekend!

 

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?
