Dear Peeps,
A lot has happened in one week. Something awful caused you to take me to the emergency hospital last Tuesday night.
But you must realize that I’m not really sure what “awful” means. All I know is that you love me and I love you and the world keeps spinning.
I survived not being able to breathe very well last Tuesday. But my tail was wagging whenever I saw you.
I survived Dr. Elliott’s people shoving a catheter in my ankle so I could fight off the dehydration and get warm again. Because I knew I was in a safe place.
I survived my other three ankles being poked with needles hour after hour. I survived being alone in a strange place overnight and all the next day. All because I knew something had happened – I didn’t know what and I don’t want or need to know what. But I needed to be there.
I know more things than you think I do. And I know you’re sad, but I don’t comprehend it all.
Because I’m not concerned with the same things you’re concerned with. If you want to know the truth, all I care about is being with you. We’re connected. Because that’s the way it should be. We’ll always be connected. Always. No matter what.
Remember this – it’s the most important – “dog” is “God” spelled backwards. Think about that for a nice, long minute.
Then get me some salmon and green beans, please. It’s time for me to eat. And you know nothing comes between me and my food.

Me. Hanging out in my backyard kingdom on Sunday. Ah….what a beautiful day.
Ah yes, foodables! Make certain that it is healthy stuff.
That means you’re kitty bon bon days are over.
Uh…no it doesn’t.
BOL!!
Enjoy your food. It has always been considered a sign of getting better.
Wish I’d known about salmon before now!
Amen Stuart – AMEN! That is the most important thing in our lives – our humans and our food. Sometimes it doesn’t come in that order but our humans should know we love them and just want to be with them. We see how we make them smile and sometimes cry. Perfect posting pal! XOXO – Bacon
Share a meal with everybody in your house for me, K?
You are the best. ❤️
And I thank you and yours for your kindness.
It is time to enjoy food, at whatever time Stuart wants and what Stuart want.
Sweet William The Scot

Ah Stuart, what a difference a day makes, eh? That Salmon and green bean with some rice combo sounds quite good. May have to suggest that to the Mater. I scored some roasted chicken skin bits last night………XXXXXXX your pal Skyler
You did well my Skyler….now go score yourself some Salmon Skin! I haven’t that yet.

That’s all we can do . Live in the moment. The power of now. Be. Here’s wishing you’re in the moment too. Wise words.
As long as you don’t start swimming upstream – you should be OK. Love you much!
OH….and develop scales and fins! Yikes!
You know you are living the good life with Love, Green Beans and Salmon. What makes Stuart Happy is just having his peeps around a full dinner plate.

green beans are the best! second only to broccoli. and carrots. and sweet potatoes. and pumpkin. and cantaloupe.
YOU are so right my friend!
Stuart, we are blown away by your description of the terrible sickness that struck you last week, what it means to you, and how you view the situation. Following you all these years we knew you were a very intelligent Scottie, but what we’re reading today elevates you to another level. Today, you have spoken like a wise old sage with a lifetime of experience and knowledge that is spot on!
Yes. It is so. Your peeps needed to know how you feel. Thank you for sharing your insight and for declaring your love and ‘connection’ with your wonderful peeps. I know they are feeling much better now, too.
Love & hugs,
McDuff & Mom
I can’t thank you enough for recognizing that. I only wish the peeps would get their acts together and chill.
