Dear Cats-

Thank you for not freaking out that there is an obnoxious dog in your space. I'm sorry he has to be here, but he does (since my dad has scheduled his knee replacement surgery, and the dog can't go home until he is home and recovered). We'll keep trying to give you extra scratches and treats, and please give the dog a wide berth when his food is out (since he has already snarled at you for walking past). We won't feed him when we aren't there to supervise, of course. If we haven't told you lately, you are awesome cats!
