Dear Mom,

Thank you for telling me about your new foster dog, Peppy. Thank you for his picture. He looks very nice, that is if you like dogs which you do - though personally I think they are stupid what with their soft eyes and demeaning tendency to please. It is nice that Peppy speaks Chinese Crested since you understand the language. In its spoken version, it is sufficient but not at all elegant like my High Cat. Does Peppy read? I suppose if he does it is on an elementary level. He would not be sophisticated like me. Well, whatever, enjoy him. Thank you for showing him the picture of me that's hanging on your bedroom wall. He can see for himself that I'm beautiful. (And I must say that I become more beautiful every day.)

Love,
Panther
