I am Stella, Queen of the Olde English Bulldogges. Lady Human has been doing what the humans call ‘playing hooky’ today. It sounds like fun, but she’s the only one who had any.
Me: I went to the zoo. So?
Wiggles: Lunch was late…again.
Doodlebug: That always happens when you have fun, Lady Human.
Me: Every once in a while, I do something a little different. So?
Miss Sweetie: Is a zoo where strange animals live?
Me: Yeah. How did you know?
Tiger: With all due respect, Lady Human, you smell strongly of strange animals.
Stella: Why were you visiting strange animals instead of staying here and playing with us?
Wiggles: And why couldn’t we go along?
Me: No dogs allowed at the zoo. Your presence might freak out the animals there.
Tiger: Strange animals.
Miss Sweetie: We are our own zoo.
Me: It’s not the same thing, Sweetie.
Miss Sweetie: You don’t need to go anyplace else to see strange animals. We are all right here.
