Fur
by carolynholm
Cher Madame,
Monsieur has la visage de colère this morning. Pourquoi he is angry?
Regards,
M. Le Poufin
Dear Puffin,
Monsieur looks angry because he was very upset to find cat hair all over his jacket.
Love, Carolyn
Cher Madame,
Pourquoi cela le dérange-t-il? Mon fur, c’est lovely, glossy et warm.
Regards,
M. Le Poufin
Dear Puffin,
Seriously? Why does it bother him? Your fur is lovely on you, but once it leaves your coat it definitely loses its appeal. Now your white belly hair is all over his navy blue jacket, and Monsieur has to use the lint roller on it. He was already running late, now he’ll be really late for his appointment.
Carolyn
Cher Madame,
If Monsieur doesn’t appreciate mon beautiful fur sûr son jacket, pourquoi did he issue l’invitation?
Regards,
M. Le Poufin
Dear Puffin,
Invitation? What on earth do you mean?
Carolyn
Cher Madame,
To drape le jacket sûr le bed means one thing only. An invitation to tous les chats. It is an invitation to a special new lounging spot!
Regards,
M. Le Poufin
Dear Puffin,
No it’s not! It’s not an invitation at all! You have lovely beds all over the house! You are supposed to use those, not our jackets!
Carolyn
Cher Madame,
So many exclamation points. Madame et Monsieur get so worked up.
Regards,
M. Le Poufin
Dear Puffin,
Of course we do. Your shedding is very annoying.
Love, Carolyn
Cher Madame,
Peut-étre c’est le fur of Mia.
Regards,
M. Le Poufin
Dear Puffin,
Mia has been curled up on my desk all morning. No, Puff honey, nice try, but we know it’s your fur.
Love, Carolyn
Cher Madame,
Il faut dire, le jacket, c’est much improved avec mon fur.
Regards,
M. Le Poufin
