Siddy was a dog so unerring in her trustworthiness, I could always leave the room even during a meal, and expect my food to remain unmolested. When I first adopted Gossamer and Penelope, I had to re-learn not to do that sort of thing ...
And yet, just now, I popped up for a moment to get some water, and Pen never even raised her head toward the unfinished piece of pound cake only inches from her. Gossy may not have been aware of it, having been playing Kitten In a Box pretty much all day now. Even so, it was a gratifying moment, to realize the fur kids have come to this point. A toast to all, with a piece of strawberry swirl pound cake - pets really are amazing sometimes.
