It was a dark and snowy night Tuesday nighe when me and Bugs made the great escape of 2009. Daddy had been unloading the truck and bringing wheelbarrow loadz of brickz around to tha back yard. When himz finished emptying tha truck, himz put away tha wheelbarrow and came inside BUT himz forgot to close and lock tha back gate. And thatz where himz made himz big, big mistake!!!! Daddy took tha block out of tha doggie door so we boyz could go outside and thatz when tha great adbenture began.
We waz all sitting in tha den watching TB, well Mommy and Daddy waz, we waz sitting in our cratez. Daddy gave us the “free” command and boy himz had no idea what that waz going to mean. Me and Bugz went outside to go potty and thatz when we noticed tha gate waz open. Bugz stucked himz nose out the gate door and waz off with me hot on himz heelz. Me waz trying me best to get himz to stop and come home but tha farther himz trotted down tha street, the sweet freedom smelled. Next thing me knew we waz running to the end of our street and there was a really nice lady walking by so we decided the polite thing to do waz follow her to be sure herz got home safely.
The only problem with thiz grand plan waz Mommy and Daddy didn’t know we waz gone or where we had gone. In fact if it hadn’t been for that stinky kitty Lily Pantz themz probably wouldn’t have realize we waz gone for a long time. Mommy realized something was wrong when Lily Pantz sauntered into tha den. Hers never ever comez into tha den if herz thinkz we iz in there, yet here she waz. Mommy got up and looked out in tha back yard and no dogz. When Mommy sounded the alarm Daddy realized himz had forgotten to cloze and lock tha back gate. Me betz Mommy was not berry happy to hear that. Herz grabbed her coat and shoes and so did Daddy and themz took off in different directionz looking for us. Themz waz calling “MURPHY”, “BUGZ”
While Mommy and Daddy waz wandering around in tha snow storm, me and Bugz was toasty warm in the nice lady’z garage. Her had taken uz inside so herz could read tha information on Bugz tag. Me had lost mine last year and Mommy hadn’t replaced it yet. Bugz waz so happy to have made a new friend himz was wiggling and jiggling all over and it waz hard for tha nice lady to get the phone number off himz tag but herz managed and called Daddy. Well of course Daddy didn’t have himz phone with him so herz lefted a voice message and began to take us back home. We walked beside her like the good boyz we iz.
In tha mean time Daddy had gone home to get himz truck to ride around looking for us. Mommy waz still walking all ober tha place looking and calling for us. Herz said she imagined all sortz of horrible thingz happening to her boyz, hit by a car, picked up by a stranger, lost all night out in tha cold and snow fighting off coyotez, scaring some poor person who didn’t know we waz friendly. She even went down tha dark path leading to tha lake by herself looking for uz. Mommy finally decided to go get her truck too and to leave tha garage door open just in case we found our way home. Daddy had made a couple pazzez when himz came upon the nice lady and himz boys heading for home. Himz was glad to see us and us him and himz put us in tha truck and thanked tha nice lady. And brought us home to a very happy and relieved Mommy. As for us boyz, we was worn out from our great adventure and settled in on our sofa for a nap.
Alls well that ends well me alwayz sayz
