(And I don’t mean pen as in those places you keep chickens and doggies and such. Have you ever seen a kitty in a pen?  NO WAY, Jose.)

Well, I just received this amazingly kind and thoughtful email from a doggy in San Francisco named Lola, and I am so tickled about having a new friend that maybe, just maybe (if mama ever gets me even near one of those things with wings that make a horrendous racket and have throw-up bags in the seat pockets…ech), I will visit one day. But you never know about doggies getting along with kitties.

I think Lola will be fine, as you will see by the letter.  By the way, I asked for another pic and this is what she sent me.  She looks as if she is driving the car, no?

Hi my dear Lou Lou,

Let me introduce myself. I am Lola and live at present withGreg Kennedy and his family on the shores of the Pacific Ocean. My own life is a dream and my dear family allow me the pleasures of my adolescence, while hoping I outgrow my fondness for chewing eyeglasses. I’ve certainly heard a lot about you and your wonderful adventures in both Rome and France. Lucky girl!! I know my family’s matriarch and her alpha dog will soon be visiting you and I hear you will also be there. Oh I would love to pee there with you.

Arfectionately, Lola 

Wasn’t that just a dandy email? And so funny and clever. I like this doggy already.

And yes, the matriarch is coming to see mama and papa and bringing her alpha dog, which really made me giggle…imagine, an anthro alpha! So no doubt I’ll hear more about Lola and maybe there will be more pics of her. This one is pretty cute but I would love more. Pen pals are great now that the world turns on a few vibes in the air that connect practically every corner of our earth with another corner, so if any of you doggies or kitties out there wish to leave a sage comment on the state of the planet, feel free. After having read the letter, I started singing, “Whatever Lola wants, Lola gets…lalala” and I think that’s right on the money with this doggy!

No, I am not putting my ‘foot’ in my mouth–I’m cleaning up to meet Lola’s family!
