Empty

Dear Alpha Mom,
The food bowl is empty.
Your Best Dog,
Molly
Dearest Molly,
Of course it is. It’s empty less than two minutes after I feed you. Clean as a whistle.
Love, Carolyn

Dearest Molly,
You can’t be hungry. I just fed you. So I’m sorry it’s empty, but it’s not yet time for your next meal.
Love, Carolyn

Try to hang on, honey. I’ll give you a couple of treats. That should tide you over. Dinnertime is only a few hours away.

Of course it is, honey. It’s going to be empty until I fill it at mealtime.

Dearest Molly,
I know it is! And you’re not going to get any more out of it by licking an empty bowl over and over. Please honey, settle down, and maybe take a nap until it’s dinnertime.
Love, Carolyn

Dear god, you’ll be fed soon. In your sixteen years have I ever failed to feed you?

I love you, but your combination of OCD and senility is exhausting. Thank god it’s finally dinnertime.
Love, Carolyn
