Puffin looking away

Cher Madame,

Poppy has become intolerable. Ce chien, elle est très rude.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

What is it this time?

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Elle dit that je suis un gutter cat ordinaire.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

She called you an ordinary gutter cat? That’s funny. I didn’t know she had it in her.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Toujours vous avez l’attitude négative.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

You have to admit you were found in a gutter. Literally.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Mais avec dignité, Madame. Parce que je suis 100% Aristocratique.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

Oh dear. That again. What does that even mean?

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Je suis pure. 100% pure.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

That’s debatable. Probably no life form is pure anything. But you are probably pretty close to 100% Domestic Short Hair. So we’ll let you have your 100% Aristocratic title.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Les autres, le hell hound et le crazy Mia, they are not 100% anything.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

That’s not true, sweetie. Mia is a Lynx Point Siamese and Poppy is a Finnish Spitz. They are both aristocrats!

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Madame is not 100% anything.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

Actually I am. I had my DNA analyzed and I am 100% Northern European. It’s embarrassing to be that white. But I am 3% Neanderthal. I’m especially proud of that 3%.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Pah. You are saying you are 103%?

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

The 3% is part of the 100%. Neanderthals were in Northern Europe. So I’m as much an aristocrat as the rest of you.

Love, Carolyn
