Thursday – A Little Personal – Twiggy and Tempeste at Play

~ John W. Howell

“What game do you want to play, Tempeste?”

“I was thinking of maybe fetch.”

“Um. There is a problem with that.”

“What is that?”

“We have no thumbs to be able to hold and throw the ball.”

“What about Dad?”

“He’s in the office working on something.”

“Well, there’s Mom.”

“She is busy as well.”

“Well then, Twiggy. How are we going to play ball?”

“I guess ball is out. How about tuggy?”

“With that miserable little toy?”

“Better than nothing.”

“One more look tells me this thing is totally inadequate for two Frenchies to play tuggy.”

“So where’s that leave us?”

“It leaves us standing around until dinner.”

“Speaking of which. I hear the call of the kibble. You coming?”

“There is a stray leaf back here. Maybe it will be tasty.”

“More than the delicious stew and kibble.”

“On second thought. Hold up.”

  3. I think “the call of the kibble” would make a perfect title for a fun post or even a poem, dog or cat art anyway… so cute! 😀 Now thinking of the leaf allure too… although I forget which one of them has that stray leaf eating fixation, whether Twiggy or Tempeste 😊

  5. I didn’t expect to be thinking about Jack London this morning, but “The Call of the Kibble” did it. Twiggy and Tempeste don’t have the challenge of the Klondike, but they do have challenges!

  11. Glad to see the girls have their priorities in the right order. But the call of the leaf never ends, does it!

    Smiles on a Thursday!

  23. At least they have toys to play with. Loki has all of his new toys destroyed within a few minutes. We have to stick to bones.

    How is Twiggy doing?

  31. Don’t you love it when they crown you “entertainment committee” and expect you to be at their beck and call?!? The Monk does it, too — probably a dog-thing.

  36. Stew and Kibble sounds good to me. Although leaves can be very, very tasty, they tend to clog me up.

    Bon appetit!

    Tell Dad his new banner looks great!
