Dougy stopped by this morning. He got right to the point.
“How’s Tom and your blog on blogs project going? Just curious…!”
“Of course you are curious, Dougy! You are, after all, a cat!” I joked. Dougy didn’t laugh and not just because he is a cat.
“I see several blogs on your hand-written list I know you follow faithfully, kitty ones. Why is there only one kitty blog on your final list?” Dougy wanted to know….
“You got me there, Dougy. I haven’t seen Tom’s list yet, but I think we pretty much recognize we, as cat bloggers, need to include more than just cat blogs on our lists if we don’t want to cut out dog bloggers, travel bloggers…” Dougy cut me short. He didn’t want to hear it!
“Look, if this goes over well, Tom and I might do it again in future, and the other kitty blogs might show up on future lists. I mean, how can I chose among them? They all are favorites of mine!” Dougy noticed the tear of sincerity on the corner of my eye.
(“I think I won him over,” I chortled to myself!)
“You know I want to believe you…” said Dougy.
“…but Andy warned me you might try to fool me with a tear of sincerity. I’m staying here till you show me a finished blog post!” It’s a side of my kitty I’ve never seen before.
