Letters from the Pets

Prior to the sensational duo that is Mia and Bailey, there was Toby and Turtle. Toby was the first corgi; he passed away a few years ago following a plucky battle with cancer. Turtle, as you may have already guessed, was a cat. Between 2011 and 2014, when our child was young, Toby and Turtle sometimes wrote short letters to our child, about their day or other Things of Import that had happened while she was at school or other activities. These letters have recently been unearthed from the great recesses of our child’s room, and so we have decided to share them with you. We hope that you enjoy them!

Hi, it’s Turtle. Toby and I are friends again. He said he was sorry for trying to eat my toy. He thought it was food. Dogs always think everything is food. But he said I could eat some of his food to make up for it. So I did. And then I tried to go outside, so I could chase the birds. No one seems to think that there are too many birds here but me. Also, no one let me outside. Maybe when you get back, you can let me out?





Hello! It’s Toby. Poppy mowed the grass in the goat pasture today, so I had to watch and make sure that none of the goats escaped. I did a good job, because none of the goats got out. But all that guarding made me really hungry. I hope it’s almost time for dinner. What did you eat today?
