Dear Aunt Beth

The weirdest thing happened

You won't believe this.

Julia and her roommates

wrote a thank-you note to you

for some treats you sent them

I notice you didn't send treats to me

but there is neither here nor there.

Where was I?

Oh--the note

Well first a big wind came along

and it blew the note into a puddle

or a lake

Some body of water.

I tried to rescue it

by ever so gently

picking it up in my mouth

I set it on a surface --

like it was maybe a table?

The next thing I know

The cats were walking out of that room

Licking their lips

I'm not accusing anyone of anything

but it was sketchy

They placed the damaged note

near my chew toys

So anyway

Glad to be of service

Love, Gus
