Dog Days of Summer & a Cat!

Hello!  It's the dog days of summer.  That means it's hot outside.  It's especially hot if you're wearing a fur coat all the time - like me.  In the summer, you get to wear shorts and short sleeves.  Me, I have to keep my coat on all the time.  It's a good thing that I have a nice place to lay outside in my front yard.  I dug up the grass so I can lay right on the dirt.

Later in the day, my Mom goes in the pool and takes me along to the backyard.  It's nice to have a change of scenery....except when this cat decides to sit in the next yard.  This cat just lays in the grass and stares at me.  First of all, it's not polite to stare.  Second of all, I'm attached to this swing so I can't even go check out the cat:

I don't even know who this cat.  Plus it's highly annoying when you want to check things out and realize you have to drag along a heavy swing - it's definitely not helpful.

Like I always say, keep an eye out for new friends.  I have some cat friends:  Midnight and Emerson.  I'd LOVE to make a new friend.  Maybe some day this cat will come over and introduce itself.  Of course, this new cat doesn't know my BIG secret:  I'm afraid of cats!  That's OK, I'm always up for meeting a new cat.  Try to be friendly today so you can have better luck than me!
