The Move

by carolynholm

Cher Madame,

My world she is turned up side down. Madame has done a thing très très terrible. C’est un catastrophe.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

Let me guess sweetie – this is about the new house?

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Oui! C’est un catastrophe!!!!!

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

I’m so sorry. I know how you feel. Moving is difficult.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

First you took us to a strange place. You left us there. We thought you were never coming back.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

I’m sorry, I know that was difficult. I boarded all of you so you wouldn’t be upset by the movers. But it was only for two nights! And the lady there was very kind.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Then you took us to this place that magically has all our house things but it’s not the same house. This is très disorienting. It is our house and it is not our house. What is a little cat to think? Cats do not move. We are completely disarranged.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

Mia is taking it well, though. In fact she has been quite cheerful. Clearly she loves exploring the house, and she likes the views from the windows. And Poppy is comfortable with it too. You need to calm yourself, honey.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Toujours this will be a black mark on Madame’s record. And now I would like my dinner to be served.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin
