I was in big trouble on Friday! Mummy’s brother, Peter, and his wife came to leave their car here whilst they are away. Peter had light colored trousers on and I jumped up and made muddy paw marks on them! Do you remember when I jumped up Mrs. Bayford’s ( the coal merchant’s wife) and ruined her white trousers? This was a similar incident and Mummy had to sponge Peter’s trousers and dry them with her hair dryer!
I have some good news! Instead of going to the kennels next week, I am going to stay with Ruby and Saffy! Steve says he will look after me and I am pleased about this as I was worried about going to a strange place. Also they have a BIG pond in their garden – maybe I can swim in it. Rusty is going to stay at home and Steve will come and feed her. She is pleased too as she likes her home comforts!
We are going fishing now, looks like trout will be on the menu tonight!

Poor you. It isnt your fault that humans don’t like paw marks on their clothing – I think it is a rather nice design feature if you ask me, haha. Good news about staying with friends when mummy and daddy go on hols. Ruby and Saffy can cheer you up when you miss mummy and daddy:just remember not to steal their dinner and you will be fine – or at least dont let anyone SEE you stealing their dinner, hoho

Slip, don’t go fishing in the koi pond while your mummy and daddy are away. At $2,000 per fish, they could be very expensive for your mummy and daddy to replace when they return!

P.S. We have a beautiful koi pond at the Japanese Gardens within the Botanical Gardens in Fort Worth, TX. Visitors are allowed to feed the koi with fish food, and the koi come over to the edge for handouts immediately when someone steps close to the pond.
