A Buddy's Gift

The sun was bright and hot today.

A little after noon, EJ heard a horn that sounded like the quacking of a duck at the gate. It was the young affable postman alerting EJ. He had a big grin on his face and a box in his hands. The box was sent from Australia.

It was from Mr Puddy.

EJ opened the box immediately. All the cats were fast asleep but the rustling sound of opening the box and checking its contents woke Cinders. Like human senior citizens, Cinders, the feline version is a light sleeper.

She was the only one who came to check it out...

...took a look at the book...

...and pawed this lovely card of sweet feline love in a glass with a note inside handwritten with much care.

All the cats were still asleep when Cinders finished her tour of gifts and EJ put them back in the box.

Thanks very much Mr Puddy.

We love you, buddy!

    Wonderful to see Cinders investigate the presents and find the card from Puddy. Mr. Puddy, dear, you are a gentleman and a scholar, as they used to say in England. Indeed, you are a wonderful friend.
    EJ, I'm looking forward to finding out what the other cats thought of Puddy's gifts.
