Dear Bossy’s Son, Bossy Can Finally Tell You About This Close Call. Heck, Let’s Make It A Giveaway

Meet Bossy’s new cat! Almost.

It all began innocently enough one day a few weeks ago, when Bossy spied a white cat outside her dining room window.

Fast forward a few days when this very cat found its way up on Bossy’s front porch. The first thing Bossy did was notice its little tag on its little collar, so she phoned the little number. And when she says she phoned the number she means she made her husband do it.

And guess what? The number was disconnected, and there was no other information on the cat’s collar, except a name: Snow Flake.

The next thing Bossy did was fall in love fetch the cat some milk in a saucer because that’s what people do in the movies, kind of like how people in the movies boil water at the sight of a pregnant woman.

The next thing Bossy did was rename the cat Honky and try to figure out where it was going to sleep. And then the cat wandered happily away and Bossy thought that was that.

Until the next day, when the cat returned. This time Honky née Snow Flake wandered into the backyard where Bossy was busy cursing gardening. Once again, Bossy fetched a saucer of milk for her new cat:

And Honky née Snow Flake wasn’t a bit discouraged by the site of a field mouse dressed as a Mack truck:

Not so of Stella when she saw the cat:

And then Bossy asked around the neighborhood and she found out her cat isn’t Honky née Snow Flake at all, but rather Snow Flake née Honky née Snow Flake because Snow Flake never was a stray and in fact has a nice home up the street, and a very exciting life visiting various neighbors who all love her.

No one was more relieved than Stella — and this is about the time Bossy remembered that her nice friends at Bit O Luv had provided Bossy’s Mack Truck née field mouse with several different kinds of dog treats to sample.

Bit O Luv is a cool innovative company that believes in using high quality ingredients good enough for people but formulated for dogs. Frankly, Stella thinks acorn shells and carpet lint are formulated for dogs, but she does seem particular smitten with the Bit O Luv treats in flavors such as roasted chicken, smokehouse, and bistro beef.

Bossy is thrilled to tell you her nice friends at Bit O Luv would like to give ten Bossy readers a bag of these dog treats to sample yourself! Or rather, for your dogs to sample themselves! Even though they are good enough for people! Bossy is going to stop typing now!

Simply leave a comment below, one per person please, and Bossy will employ her friend the Random Number Generator to select the ten winners. Come to think of it, these treats would make a decent stocking stuffer for someone you know with a dog.

Contest closed. Thanks for playing along!
