I am Stella, Queen of the Olde English Bulldogges.
MoonCat: Meow!
Stella: Lady Human! The cat’s complaining! Again!
Me: What’s wrong, Moon? Oh, dry water bowl? How did that happen? I just filled it.
MoonCat: Meow!
Stella: Just tell her.
MoonCat: Big mouth bulldog drank it all.
Me: Which big mouth bulldog?
Stella: I know! I know! And it wasn’t me.
Me: Wiggles?
Wiggles: Hmmm?
Me: What are you doing drinking the cat’s water?
Wiggles: It was there. It smelled funny. You know…like a cat. I thought it might taste better than mine. So…
Stella: You have embarrassed yourself among all bulldogs everywhere. How will you ever get the taste of cat water out of your mouth?
Wiggles: I already did. I drank out of your bowl.
