Cocoa addresses inside rain.

Cocoa wanted to share one of his
baby pictures with you.
I hope you like.
“Dear Cocoa,

When I was an outside dude, I walked in the rain and snow when I had to and took shelter whenever I could find it.  About 6 months ago, I acquired pets that allow me to go in and out whenever I want.  The food is good.  The house is warm when the air outside is cold.  The beds are dry and warm.  But I have been concerned with a habit that my pets have; and, though I have tried to interfere and stop them, I have been unsuccessful.  You see, my pets get in the rain, sometimes more than once a day, voluntarily!  And what’s more, they make the rain in the house!  I do not understand; rain is cold and wet and horrid on the skin.  Why are they doing this?

 “Dear Concerned,

Don’t trouble yourself about your pets’ habit of getting in the rain.  You see, pets are, well, not quite as intelligent as us felines and they often do things that do not make sense.  I have fully investigated this particular phenomenon; and I have found that pets do this thing because they like to play in the water.  Yes, as crazy as that seems, it is true.  Pets have no real responsibility except to keep us felines happy, so they use their spare time to do crazy things.  I have actually seen pets put their babies in the water!  How crazy is that? 

I would counsel you to allow them their fun when they do those crazy things, since they won’t be as happy about waiting on you if you don’t.  So, find yourself a nice warm sunny ledge and take a long cat nap while they are playing in the water.  That way, you might not feel so upset about it.
