Marbles

by carolynholm

Cher Madame,
This pauvre petit cat must admonish Madame. 
Regards, M. Le Poufin

Dear Puffin,
Oh dear. Now what?
Love, Carolyn

Cher Madame,
Madame has lost her marbles.
Regards, M. Le Poufin

Dear Puffin,
Okay, I’ll bite. What marbles would these be?
Love, Carolyn

Cher Madame,
Les marbles in her head. Because, a kitten? Seriously? Madame is going to bring home a kitten?
Regards, M. Le Poufin

Dear Puffin,
Oh, the kitten marbles. Well, we’re working on it. Talking to the rescue groups. 
Love, Carolyn

Cher Madame,
There is still time to back out of it.
Regards, M. Le Poufin

Dear Puffin,
That’s not going to happen, sweetie. We are a two cat family. We have an opening for a second cat that must be filled. What can I say!
Love, Carolyn

Cher Madame,
Have you consulted the moronic dog?
Regards, M. Le Poufin

Dear Puffin,
Poppy is completely on board. She would love to have a kitten to snuggle with. And chase around the house.
Love, Carolyn

Cher Madame,
C’est trop. All that disruption, all that scurrying about, jumping and ambushing us. Leaping out of paper bags. Back arched and tail bristling. Unrolling le toilet paper roll. That’s what kittens do.
Regards, M. Le Poufin

Dear Puffin,
That’s what is so charming about them. Well not the toilet paper part, which is just annoying. That was what you did a lot of when you were a baby. But sweetie, you are going to enjoy having a youngster here! You’ll have someone to play with! You’ll have a blast!
Love, Carolyn

Cher Madame,
This petit cat does not do the blast.
Regards, M. Le Poufin

Dear Puffin,
For crying out loud, you like to play. Your specialty is The Ambush. You and Mia played ambush all the time.
Love, Carolyn

Cher Madame,
Mia she was of the family.
Regards, M. Le Poufin

Dear Puffin,
The kitten will be family too.
Love, Carolyn

Cher Madame,
Quelle horreur.
Regards, M. Le Poufin

Dear Puffin,
Oh please. Well, at the very least a kitten will give you someone to complain about.
Love, Carolyn

Cher Madame,
Toujours le sarcasm.
Regards, M. Le Poufin
