Play Ball

Dear Puffin,

What was all that noise last night?

Love, Carolyn

 

Madame,

As usual vous rudely bring up the petit unpleasantness.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

Petit? Hardly. You make such a big production about a simple hairball.

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Madame,

Then you do know what the noise was about, and yet toujours you pester me with the unpleasant questions.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

It was a rhetorical question. I just wish you would find a nice cleanable surface to upchuck on and be done with it. All this drama – the convulsing stagger, the rude noises – it always ends up the same way, with a disgusting mess on a lovely rug.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Vous etes wrong, as usual. It was not a hairball. It was autre chose. It was le fuzz from le petit yellow ball.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

You ate the ball?!!!!

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Main non, I vanquished the ball, captured it, ripped it savagely with my powerful hind claws, and shredded the fuzz off with my dagger-sharp fangs.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

And to think I missed all that.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

And then, malheureusement, I swallowed the fuzz.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

You ate the ball.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

It was une accident.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin
