Hey Mom,
Puffin says I have a job to do. For you and Dad.
Winston

Dear Winston, 
A job? Do you remember what this job entailed? 
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mom,
No tail involved at all. Something about lap time. And it involves peeing. But I told him that you were very particular about where we pee. Definitely not on laps.
Winston

Dear Winston,
That’s good, I appreciate you pointing that out to him.
Love, Carolyn

Mom,
I remember now! It is something called There a Pee!!!!!!!
Winston

Dear Winston,
Gotcha. Cat Therapy.
Love, Carolyn

Mom,
That’s it!!!!!!!
Winston

Dear Winston,
It has nothing to do with peeing. 
Love, Carolyn

Hey Mom,
It has pee in the title.
Winston

Dear Winston,
That’s sort of a coincidental sound. 
Love, Carolyn

Hey Mom,
Puffin says it is a very important job. 
Winston

Dear Winston,
It is! It’s a huge responsibility. Dad and I need you two cats to spend a lot of time on our laps to keep us healthy and happy!
Love, Carolyn

Mom,
That’s a lot of pressure.
Winston

Dear Winston,
I don’t think so. You get to just curl up there, warm and purring.
Love, Carolyn

Mom,
Or spread out.
Winston

Dear Winston,
Yes, definitely, spreading out on a lap is just as good as curling.
Love, Carolyn

Hey Mom,
What happens if you two don’t get Cat Therapy?????
Winston

Dear Winston,
We feel all the weight of a crazy world on our shoulders.
Love, Carolyn

Mom!
That sounds terrible!!!!!!
Winston

Dear Winston,
It is. That’s why Cat Therapy is so important. 
Love, Carolyn
