Dot!

Hey friends, thanks so much for coming by my birthday post. I asked Mom what my present was and she said it was Greyson! Greyson?! I'm sure he wasn't on my wish list. Sure I love the little twerp, but I was hoping for a toy or some nip.

I have to tell you the strangest thing started happening on my birthday. Mom, Greyson and I were chilling in the den when all of a sudden this mysterious dot of red light appeared on the floor!

"Did you see that Greyson?" I asked, but he was already hauling butt into the living room to follow it. Just as he was about to catch up it disappeared!

"Where did it go?" He asked, then pointed his paw at me. "Get it Quill, it's right by your tail!"

Huh? My tail? I thought he had to be mistaken, I mean I was watching the area between us very carefully and I never saw it run by, but there it was. Right next to my tail! I went to catch it and it was just gone - poof - like that.

We both chased that dot for a long while. We never knew where and when it would show up. It always seems to leave when it sees we're tired too. So mysterious! We have been on the lookout ever since, and every once in awhile it shows up again!

There it is - gotta go!

  18. Hey, that dot comes by our house sometimes as well. It dropped by for just a couple of minutes yesterday and then disappeared again. We've never been able to figure out where it goes either…maybe to your house! Have fun and keep your eyes open lest there be another sneak attack.

  21. Oh Quill and Greyson, you have been attacked by the red dot. It is fun, isn't it. Mom needs to get us new one. Better stay on the look out. You just never know when it is coming back. Take care.
