It’s our 4 Year Anniversary!

Throughout the month of February we are celebrating four years of weekly Interspecies Memos by sharing some old favorites. This one is from August 26, 2016:

Dear Mia,

I just got a box in the mail from Amazon.com. It is full of cat treats. Do you know anything about this?

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Mommy,

Cat treats? Did my Temptations order arrive? That’s so exciting!

Love, Mia

 

Dear Mia,

You ordered this?

Carolyn

 

Dear Mommy,

I did! And it came so fast! I love Amazon!

Love, Mia

 

Dear Mia,

You are a cat. You are not supposed to be ordering things.

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Mommy,

I’m not? Oh. Well, this is awkward. Have you received the snuggly cat bed yet?

Love, Mia

 

Dear Mia,

You ordered a snuggly bed???

Carolyn

 

Dear Mommy,

Sort of. And a catnip mouse. And some liver treats for Poppy.

Love, Mia

 

Dear Mia,

Well it’s really nice of you to think of Poppy too, but you have to stop shopping!

Carolyn

 

Dear Mommy,

I ordered a Trump hat for Dad.

Love, Mia

 

Dear Mia,

A TRUMP HAT? Honey he will never wear that. What were you thinking!

Carolyn

 

Dear Mommy,

And a cat sweatshirt for you.

Love, Mia

 

Dear Mia,

You’re a cat. You can’t shop.

Carolyn

 

Dear Mommy,

I’m pretty sure I can. It was easy.

Love, Mia

 

Dear Mia,

You don’t have any money! Because, well, you’re a cat.

Carolyn

 

Dear Mommy,

I didn’t need any money!

Love, Mia

 

Dear Mia,

I just looked at my account. Okay, I have now deactivated 1-Click ordering. You are banned from amazon, is that understood?

Carolyn

 

Dear Mommy,

I’m pretty sure you are going to like the cat sweatshirt.

Love, Mia
