Finally Friday

Finally I get to open my present is more like it! There's been a box sitting on the kitchen counter since Monday night and Mommy hasn't been around to help me open it. I've never had my own mail before - oh sure, sometimes I get something when the kitties get a present, but this is the very first time something came addressed to me alone! It smelled so good sitting up there, and Mommy told me it was from my friend Renna, so of course I was very anxious to see what it was.

Here's the cool card - isn't Renna the cutest Princess Pup you've ever seen?! Oh it's a birthday present, how exciting.


Here's me checking out the box.


And here's what was in it!

A big juicy Ham Bone - it was so great! I could barely contain myself, I kept pawing and jumping on Mommy as she opened the package for me (I could have done it myself, but she said no). It was so amazingly tasty, I chewed and chewed! Bert came over to see what I had, and I wouldn't let him see - I got mad and took my bone to the corner where he couldn't steal it.

A while later Mommy got up to take the bone away, she said it's not good to have too much of a special treat all at once (see if she says that if I tried to take away her Ben and Jerry's!). But all she saw was a few last bits of bone, so she looked all over till she realized that I had eaten the entire thing in the span of only a few hours (I'm what the vet calls and "aggressive chewer")!

Even though I didn't make it last, I sure did enjoy it!!! Thank you sooooo much Renna, it was an awesome birthday surprise!

On a sad note, one of the kitties' friends is being helped over the bridge today, I'm sure Storm and her family would appreciate any good thoughts, woofs or puppy kisses.
