Sneak Attack Interrupted

Pierre: It’s time to strip the comforter off the bed to do laundry, but I’m not moving. This makes a nice hiding place!

Pierre: Do you hear something? It sounded like paws on the bed!

Pierre: I see you!

Newton: Oh… umm… Hi, Pierre! I didn’t notice you there.

Pierre: Sure you didn’t. You weren’t trying to sneak up on me.

Newton: I wouldn’t do that!

Pierre: Or pounce on me when I wasn’t looking.

Newton: I would NEVER do that. You must be thinking of some other orange cat.

    That Pierre is so sneaky, Newton. But I expect you guessed you wouldn’t have the bed to yourself for long!

    Newton, maybe a little quieter…not that you would have jumped on him. I’m sure you had NO idea at all that he was there. xoxo

    One nice thing about a heated waterybed is that TBT just adjusts it fer the season and we dont have ta worry about comforters and such. We just have the same sheet an light blankie year-round. Sameness is comforting…
