Veronica: And then there was one.
Bobbie: What do you mean? One what?
Veronica: One dog. Me. Betty found her forever mom. I’m so happy for her, but I’ll miss her.
George: Me, too! Betty really liked us cats.
Bobbie: Veronica, it won’t be long before you find your forever family. You’re a very cute dog and everyone loves a puppy!
Veronica: Yeah, I guess. You’re right. I’m one cute puppy, aren’t I?
Bobbie: Yes, but you have sharp nails! When are you getting your mani-pedi?
Veronica: On March 28, if I’m still with ARF. You know, at the nail-trim clinic.
Bobbie: I need a mani-pedi. Will they take cats, too?
Mr. Gray: I heard that they will. I want to look good for the humans who visit the cattery.
Audrey: Mr. Gray, good looking nails or not, you need to learn to woo the humans if you want to be adopted.
Mr. Gray: I woo them, once I’m comfortable with them. If they would just visit for a while, they would see just how friendly we all are.
George: And they would learn that I like to be petted, but only near my head. I’m funny that way.
Pepper: You all could learn from me. I’ve perfected the weaving around the human’s legs. They like that, ya know.
Veronica: Forget weaving around legs. Just wiggle your butt and tilt your head like I do. It gets ’em very time!
Audrey: Veronica, that’s a dog move. We cats are more sophisticated than that!
In Memory of all our beloved pets.
