Biggles and I had such an exciting day! First we had a good breakfast, then chased each other round and round the house, rolling and tumbling and having such fun rumpling the rugs and running up the blinds! Then it was time for a little rest. But then our mommy opened the front door to let those big white dogs out and we shot out and down the stairs and up a tree before she could blink.We think we are allowed outside now because she knows we will always come back inside for food and a cuddle, but it's fun to keep her guessing.
We went charging right down to the back of our great big garden and went to explore behind the shed, but then mommy came calling us, and Biggles ran fast and fell into the fishpond. He leapt out quicker than he went in and looked so funny, all wet and his fur sticking to him. He cried and cried until mommy took him inside and dried him with a noisy blowy thing and then he was all happy again.
Soon we were both outside again and up the milkwood tree. I was very brave and went all the way to the end of a very thin branch, but then I found myself on the other side of the big spiky wooden wall that keeps us safe. I hung there for a while and then mommy came to rescue me, thank goodness! In the meantime, Biggles had climbed another tree and had found the way onto the neighbour's garage roof. He didn't like that very much and quickly jumped back into the tree and came home.
By then we were absolutely exhausted and have been sleeping in the sun ever since. Mommy read us a little story about a kitty that went exploring and got lost and was nearly turned into a pie by some horrible rats. Maybe we will stay home for a bit.
