“Dear Cocoa,
I love to play with
all of the things my pets leave hanging around like the sticks they use to mark
paper. I knock it on the floor and chase
that thing all over the house. What I
find confusing is this: I knock that
thing past my pets ten/twenty times and they never say a word; but then they go
to the table and start screaming because they can’t find their writing
stick. They saw me playing with it, why
would they be upset about it now? I mean
all they have to do is look under the fridge where I store all of my toys when
I’m done playing with them.
Signed Why don’t they
look”
“Dear Why don’t they
look,
Your pets, I am sorry
to say, are not that intelligent. No
pets are very intelligent which is why they are pets and not superior
individuals. Often they don’t see things
that are right in front of them because they are too busy with something else
(usually something very unimportant by my way of thinking). If you are playing with something you are
relatively certain they will want eventually, try leaving it near where you
found it: like on the kitchen floor if
you found it on the table in there. That
way you can still play with it, but your pets will still (it is hoped) be able
to find it when they need it. One thing
though, pets are not too observant, so if they fall by stepping on the item,
RUN!
Signed Cocoa”
