Curtain Call – Conversations with the Pack

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges.

Sweetie: How come you do that every night with the parakeets’ cage, Lady Human?

Me: You mean why do I cover it and pull the curtain around it?

Doodlebug: They can’t see out. It’s completely black.

Me: That way they get uninterrupted sleep.

Sweetie: But we don’t have curtains.

Doodlebug: How are we going to get uninterrupted sleep?

Me: I believe you already have that figured out.

MoonCat: Yes, the deep resonant bulldog snores testify to it.
