Dearest peoples on the innernets,
This is Fergie the Duchess of Huntsmoor speakin'. One year ago today, 2 real big things happened in our family. It was all very dramatical!
The first thing that happened one year ago today was that mommy tried to kill me. Yes, that's right, mommy tried to kill me. She had worked real hard to clean the oven before she fixed Tom Turkey. She used alll kinds of stinky things...the worst of which was somethin' called Easy-Off Oven Cleaner. That stuff is real bad stuff. It hurt my lungs...very real bad. I waked up on the day after Thanksgivin' and literally couldn't breathe. Mommy had to rush me to Aunt Doktor Dugan. They put me in a special cage that had oxygen piped into it. Aunt Doktor Dugan runned some tests and said I have somethin' called asthma. From that day on, I have to use somethin' called an inhaler. It is very cool and mommy says I am a very real good girl when she gives me my medicine through the inhaler.
While I was at Aunt Doktor Dugan's office that day, mommy meeted a boy...a boy that she falled head-over-heels in love with right then and there. This is the second very dramatical thing that happened. She was waitin' in the waitin' room while Aunt Doktor Dugan did some stuff with me. There was a kitty condo full of kittens in the lobby...but there was one that was all by himself and he keeped talkin' to mommy and tryin' to git her attention. Aunt Doktor Dugan had named him Sprout...and that was a good name for him at the time...he was definitely a Sprout. He was SO charmin' and just flat-out cute with his bug-eyes and deformed front paws. Mommy had a hard time sayin' goodbye to him. Well...as you might guess, mommy thinked 'bout Sprout day and night...she couldn't stop. She lasted until December 6...she just couldn't wait no more. She called Aunt Doktor Dugan and asked if she could adopt Sprout. Aunt Doktor Dugan was VERY excited and said YES!!! So, on December 6th, Sprout offishully became a member of the Whiskers & Purrs Gang. He came home and let us know that his real name was Freddy Astaire Graves III...and the rest was history.
Next week we are gonna celebrate Freddy's one year anniversary. We hope everybody will join us on December 6th!
Very truly yours,
Fergie the Duchess of Huntsmoor
