What to do when your Mom leaves you with your Dad while she leaves Town…


 OK. So once in awhile my Mom decides to skip town. Ok, she’s yelling at me from the other room. She has to go out of town for work. And then she leaves my sister and I with our Dad. Now, it’s ok for the Princess… I mean my little sister… because she has Dad wrapped around her little paw… but for ME it means being stuck up in my travel cage without getting out to stretch my legs… no little cake crumb treats or graham crackies… no talking to me and blowing kisses. In Short, these times SUCK. I am just saying. You can’t sugar-coat this stuff.
When Mom calls Dad to say hi and check in, I try to squawk REALLY loud so she hears my pain and agony, but Dad tells me to shut up and ignores me.
Luckily, sometimes I can open my travel cage by myself. These are good times. But a guy can’t be too careful –I have to make sure that I can get back inside before Dad comes home… I remember one time, a few years back, we were still in the apartment… Dad came home EARLY and there I was, on top of my cage! CAUGHT! Boy, did I get a lecture THAT day. And Dad called MOM and TOLD on me. And then he put her on SPEAKER  phone so she could tell me how disappointed she was and how she worries about me ALL the time, blah blah blah and then she CRIED a little. Sigh. So now I have to make sure that I can get back inside. I can’t stand it when Mom cries – it makes ME cry. I HATE crying – especially in front of people. A guy has his pride!
Tubby Time Fun!
Anyway, long story short, This Murph doesn’t get his treats when Mom isn't around… and that’s never good… I am still trying to figure out how to keep her HERE and not leave… but so far I haven’t come up with anything stellar in that department. I guess I have to just wait it out and hope Dad remembers to feed me every day!
Right now, my grandma’s Puppy has come to stay for TWO weeks. This is gonna be a crazy couple of weeks! I better get some sleep!
