Speedy Drops In (and Mauls the Pigeon)

You never know what the week will bring. Monday, we found a stray, probably abandoned terrier-mix puppy crying in the rain in our driveway, so we are looking after her until we figure out the best way to locate her owner or get her a caring home. The boys dubbed her Speedy. Will we keep her? Don’t know yet. Our aging dog Sunny and our two cats are not amused by the idea. The cats are fairly sure this thing should be a cat. It’s the right size. But the cats believe there’s something terribly wrong with it. It does not act like a cat, except for the fact that it enjoys mauling birds. In fact, one bird in particular: our stuffed pigeon. Apologies to Mo Willems.
