When it is storming outside, owning a dog does pose a bit of a problem. When choosing a dog, Mimoletnoe and I had a good laugh browsing through the ads - one of them was offering some tiny Chinese breed, specifically, as a bonus mentioning that “there is no need to walk it. Cat’s litter box will do nicely”. And in times like today I wish I owned a hamster and not a German shepherd, who requires to be taken outside regardless of the weather conditions.
Dog *making pathetic eyes* : I really need to go.
Me *pretending to be blind*: Hm
Dog *letting out an trial whine*: Walk? Now? You? Me?
Me: Argh.
Cat: *sitting on top of the fridge, looking smug*
Dog *doing the second whine and getting the hang of it*: If we don’t go now, I’ll pee on the floor.
Cat: Yeah, you pee on the floor, then you’ll be in trouble and I get to drink out of your bowl.
Dog: *Attempts to get the cat, fails miserably*
Cat: You know I wouldn’t jump as high if I were you now, you might have a little accident.
Dog: *now whines full scale*
Me: OK, OK….
Cat: Did I mention that I was against having a dog from the start? Just for the record, I thought I’d share.
15 minutes later, same scene, two out of three characters got considerably wet though.
Cat: *looking disgustingly dry*: Something stinks like a wet dog. Oh, it’s you guys….
Dog: *looking pathetically wet*: Ohhhhh…. That was gooooooood…
Me: *taking off wet jeans and hanging them to dry* I’d rather you speak for yourself….
