So! Christmas
is coming! Christmas is
coming! And I know Christmas is
coming because there’s a Christmas tree in the living room, and there’s colored
lights all over the place and Auntie Em is using nutmeg and cinnamon a lot more
than she usually does, and there’s peppermint sticks that Dorothy won’t let me
have, and she’s put a red and green bow on my collar. So that usually means it’s Christmas time, or I’m having a
really vivid dream.
I remember the first time Dorothy told me about Santa Claus
and what he does. And of course my
first instinct is, WHAT!? NO
WAY! HE’S AN INTRUDER! WHY ARE WE LEAVING OUT MILK AND COOKIES
FOR A GUY WHO ENTERS OUR HOUSE VIA A CHIMNEY!
But then Dorothy promised me that Santa was actually a good
person, and to prove it, he left me a few dog treats on Christmas morning. So then Santa Claus became, like, my
best friend ever.
Though there’s a part of me that does sigh at
Christmas. Because they put out
some strange Christmas merchandise featuring Dorothy and friends, and sometimes
me. And quite frankly, I come out
looking kinda weird on these things.
That doesn’t look a THING like my woman! And I, I, I, well, I look like a grey
CAT!
Hallmark Ornaments did an ornament on us back in 1994: - http://www.hookedonhallmark.com/1994-Dorothy-and-Toto_p_3340.html
I don’t even look like I’m real you’re an ornament. I
know that! But I look like a
stuffed dog here.
And while I can understand why this is amusing on first
glance, the fact of the matter is, it’s kinda CREEPY to put dead witch’s legs
and feet on your mantleplace.
(and since this item has been discontinued, I have to
imagine that a lot of people agree with me.)
But! Should you
wonder what you should be getting your dog for Christmas (Pssst! Dorothy! Pay attention here!)
Wonder no more. It’s this…
DOG TREATS! DOG
TREATS! LOTS AND LOTS OF DOG
TREATS!
Treat your dog!
It’s Christmas! Buy your
pup something fun and different for a change!
Happy Holidays, everyone! :)
