Pierre: Hey, Ashton, what are you up to?
Ashton: I think I got mail.
Pierre: Your chicken emporium got mail! And it’s from our friend Connie at Tails from the Foster Kittens. She knows all the best cat stuff, so it must have something great inside.
Ashton: I can’t get it open. The humans need to use those metal claw things to help so we can see what’s inside.
Pierre: Why don’t you find them and get them to help? I’ll wait right here.
Ashton: Okay.
Pierre: I can’t believe she fell for that one. she has claws to open things just like I do. Let’s see what Connie sent to Ashton.
Pierre: OMC, it’s a chicken, and it’s full of catnip!
Pierre: Not just any catnip, but really, really good catnip. I’ve got to rub this on my stripes right now!
Pierre: What? You’ve never seen a cat rub chicken-shaped catnip on his stripes before?
Pierre: There’s more in the package, but I’ll get back to it later. Right now, I need to say thank you to Connie for being so thoughtful to send a surprise to Ashton. I might even share it with her when she finally comes back with someone to cut the envelope open.
Pierre: Especially big thanks because the head peep had a rough time this holiday season, and your package made her laugh a lot when she needed things to smile about. She is lucky to know people like you. Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to drool on this catnip a bit more…
