mealtimes

i have just finished eating my meal which was delicious. the people are very mean about food. they eat food all the time; in the morning, in the afternoon and in the evening but they do not let me have any of their food. even though it smells VERY tasty.

i have my food at 8 in the evening and it is very delicious food that lives in the cupboard under the stairs. i always worry that the people will forget to feed me so from about 7 i make sure that they remember me.

first i play the biting game. i like the biting game. i don't really bite hard, i just put the man's hand in my mouth and the man says 'oh stop that kia' but i can tell from the sound of his voice that he really likes it. then the woman says 'don't let her do that' and so the man says 'no biting kia' and i have to move on to the next thing.

the next thing is to pull the blanket out of my bed. i don't really need a blanket because i am a dog covered in hair but i don't complain. i pull the blanket out of my bed and  shake it around the dining room and the woman says 'hey' and the man says 'no' and puts the blanket back and i have to move on to the next thing.

the next thing is to push my bowl around the kitchen floor. it is a big bowl and a big kitchen so it makes a really good noise. then the woman picks up the bowl and puts it on the side and then there is only one thing left i can do.

i lie down looking hungry looking at the woman. there is no point looking at the man because he is always on his computer and would not see me.

and then, finally, one of them will feed me. the food is quite nice and crunchy but i eat it quickly in case they take it away again. 

it worries me what would happen if they forgot to feed me because i only get one meal a day but so far, thanks to my hard work and concentration, they haven't missed a day.

which is a relief.
