I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges. Lady Human, about that poem “To a Mouse” you talked about, can mice read those ink scratches humans make on paper? ‘Cause I can’t and it’s not fair if they can.
Me: No, mice are as illiterate as bulldogs. You haven’t missed out.
Sweetie: That’s good! No mouse can ever be one up on a bulldog.
MoonCat: Yeah, I lay around all the time worrying about being one upped by a mouse. It’s one of my great fears in life.
