Gotta Go, Gotta Go, Gotta Go Right Now

Cats pee indoors. Â Dogs do their business outside. Â Mama was being nice and thought that she would get some peepee pads for me so that I didn’t have to go down the stairs and outside to pee. Â To which I say, AW HELL NO A gentleman always pees outside. Â Like a racehorse when necessary (like…

Surgery, Damnit

Â On Thursday, something felt wrong. Â Very, very wrong. Â I had gone for my first “senior visit” at my local vet last Saturday where they found a large mass in my abdomen. Â That wasn’t fun, but we had scheduled an ultrasound and biopsy thinking that surgery was a very real possibility. Well yes, yes it was.…

Man of Adventure

Nothing can stop me when there are pine cones around. NOTHING. THROW ME A CONE! Um, thanks. CONE CONE CONE CONE CONE CONE CONE CONE Look.Â I let you clean my toes.Â I wore the potentially-humiliating Flashdance-style sweatshirt.Â I’m wearing the damn booties.Â GIVE ME MY CONE I do love this snow.Â Even though there…

Snow Dale!

Is it cold where you are? It’s DAMN COLD here in Philadelphia.Â So cold I have to wear the dreaded coat-and-booties combination. I’m not a big fan. But I do love the snow.Â No matter what.Â Even with the damn booties. Yup.Â Everything works. Love, Bogart

Go Real Slow

The Big City. The Concrete Jungle. Philadelphia is a lot of things. And one of them is that we have a really crumbling infrastructure, especially our roads. Seriously. Drive around Philly for any length of time, and you will be left with a marbled undercarriage, stubbly tires, and a reason to visit the chiropractor. But…

A Dale Near a Manger

So today I was doing my normal morning walkie through Old City, when I SMELLED SOMETHING. Mama wasn’t sure why I decided to go in a new direction, and quite honestly, neither was I. But I knew that I had to get to the bottom of that smell. So we wandered further up Race Street,…

Workin’ For a Livin’

Tonight mama and I had to go to work. She had to drop something off at her office, and well, I had to help. Once I arrived, I got right to work. Mama worked above desk, I worked below. Within mere minutes, I had found what I was looking for.Â Fully in the interest of…

My Feline Overlord

Today we got new chairs. They’re old, but they’re pretty cool. I anticipated that Kafka would spend more time on them than I would, but didn’t realize that he was already plotting world domination with his laser eyes from one of them. Note the worried look on my face. I am concerned. Love, Bogart

Run Wild and Free, Bella

There is a new Airedale-shaped star in the sky. Beautiful Bella has passed away. While I am sad whenever any Airedale leaves us, this one is particularly poignant. Bella is MY MOM. Pretty girl, you will be so missed by your family, and even though we have not seen each other since I was a…
