Buggy – Conversations with Sweetie & MoonCat

Me: Sweetie? Why haven’t you eaten your food?

Sweetie: I can’t. There’s a bug on my bowl.

Me: Oh, it’s just a fly. Shoo it off.

Sweetie: Do you eat food that a fly has sat on?

Me: As a matter of fact…

Sweetie: Ooo! Don’t tell me!

Me: Look. A fly wouldn’t stand a chance of sitting on your bowl if your big ole bulldog mouth would eat when your food is set down and not hours later.

Sweetie: There’s just no telling where its feet have been.

MoonCat: No doubt all the same places your feet have been.
