Well, folks, today was my fifth birthday. It began with breakfast sausage, followed by a long walk, where I encountered my human pal Lindy and her pup Rowan. They treated me to some scratches, a butt sniff, and A NEW TOY! I carried it in my mouth all the way home, setting it down only once when I had to do "my business."

I returned home to a nice nap while Mama went to job #1. When she got home I got a biscuit, a long massage, and a walk. My neighbor, a human named Kim, came over with ANOTHER present! It's a rope toy and I really like it. Mama went off to job #2 and I stayed home, playing with my new toys.

Mama then came home and cooked me a really yummy, stinky dinner. It included beef, sausage (no spices), tuna, and kibble. It was warm and delicious. Then I got a nice long walk and some really great play time.

I've already ripped out one eye from the zebra toy Rowan gave me. I'm working on destroying the basketball rope toy, too. Mama's human friend Anna also gave me a Petco gift card and Mama's students made banners and cards for me. A Padres bandana came in the mail from my human and feline friends in California, my Grandma sent me $5 (one for each year since my birth), and Auntie Brooke sent us a check to get our car fixed. All in all, this was a super birthday!

Today I am five
Or thereabouts
Glad for my life
Glad for this house

Whiskers turn grey
And bones get sore
But I'll love my Aimée
Forever more!!!
