I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges.
Sweetie: Why do humans talk about what time it is? What is time?
Me: If you want the scientific explanation, I’m not really qualified to give it.
Sweetie: If ” scientific” means human, no, thank you. I want the real answer.
MoonCat: The real answer? You can’t handle the real answer.

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges. Teatime is late, Lady Human. This is not a complaint, but it really is a complaint.
Me: It’s not nearly time for that yet.
Sweetie: Bulldog schedules are never wrong. Our stomachs are finely tuned instruments, far better than your clocks.
Me: I’ve noticed that y’all have been moving mealtimes around the last few weeks. Is it because the weather is cooling off?
Doodlebug: Bulldogs don’t respond to the weather any more than we respond to your human clocks.
MoonCat: Meow! Time to eat!
Me: Oh, not you, too.
MoonCat: Not me, too! Me first!
