Since accidently “sharing” her new box a few weeks ago, Viola’s not strayed far from it. Clearly, she takes Box Patrol very, very seriously. We imagine her weekly schedule looks something like this: Sunday: Box Patrol. Monday: Box Patrol. Tuesday: Box Patrol. Wednesday: Box Patrol. Thursday: Box Patrol. Friday and Saturday: Box Patrol and Box Patrol, all with the usual smatterings of breakfast, brushies, litter box time, lunches, snacks, litter box time, brushies, and dinner sprinkled throughout.

We hope to ease her concerns by introducing two new boxes upstairs that Quint and Pia have adopted. Tessa took over Quint’s old box up there so all should be good for the time being. Just in case, we have another box at the ready should anything unforeseen happen like one of Tessa’s thankfully infrequent, yet infamous hairball barfs.

Gosh, we hope she isn’t conjuring up one of those now!

Tessa, why the grumpy face today? It’s Friday. We know this means very little to you but such a grumpy face. Why?

Still grumpy Tessa? It’s been a few hours. Has nothing in your world improved? You have good light, a full belly, were brushed not too long ago . . . we don’t understand. Does your mood have anything to do with a certain new box that’s currently occupied by your little sister? There’s an empty box upstairs next to your brother’s box. No one’s claimed that one yet.

Hmm, still unhappy, are you, Tessa? We know this isn’t just a resting grumpy face. We know your grumpy face and you’ve had one all day. We were sure a silvervine sprinkled toy would do the trick and you took one sniff and walked away. Surely, there’s something we can do for you but you’re going to have to provide a clue.

Go away. Not talking about it, Dad.

It’s going to be a long weekend, Tessa. If you’re not going to say anything, can we expect you’ll also stay out of trouble?

Editor’s note: We know the problem. We just wanted her to say it. Tessa wants Viola’s new box and Viola let Tessa know that wasn’t going to happen. A minor scuffle happened and Tessa’s not happy over the outcome.
