Vote? Nobody Asked Me! – Conversations with the Pack

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges.

Sweetie: Lady Human, why did you leave us awhile ago? Were you doing some weird human nonsense? I feel so left out.

Me: I went to vote.

Doodlebug: Nobody asked me to do that, whatever it is. Was there food?

Me: It’s a selection process. We make choices by pushing a button. Not something that would interest dogs. Or cats. Or birds…

Sweetie: So something that doesn’t matter then.

Me: I wouldn’t say that.

MoonCat: Something that matters to us, but once again humans control the buttons.
