The Hunter

by carolynholm

Dear Puffin,

You look like a real hunter!

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

I am a real hunter. This catfish toy is my prey.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

Of course it is. And it is excellent exercise. You are looking very svelte these days! Congratulations!

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Mon diet is finally achieved!

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

And you will be healthier for it.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Et no more lectures from the lady vet. Who was so rude at my last visit.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

She wasn’t being rude, honey. She was concerned about your weight. She wants you to live long and enjoy a healthy old age.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

She said I was obese.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

That was a fact, honey, not an insult. But she won’t say that now. You have lost weight since she saw you.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Now this poor petit cat can eat freely, non?

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

Maybe we can ease up on the rules now and then. As long as you are good about getting your exercise.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Le catfish toy, as you say, is a good exercise.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

It is. And you can pretend you are playing with actual food.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Toujours Madame is with le sarcasm.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin
