To say I’m living on the edge, is an understatement! First, Crunch Face goes for a ride with dad and does not return, Earlier this week, we had a fire here at the house! Furball was on it right away, he started crying, as usual, so mom and dad just ignored the town crier. The smoke started getting pretty thick, so I figured I better get in on the action. Ruff, I barked! Translation, get your butts out of bed, your house is on fire! Nothing! Woof, I barked! Translation, my paws are too big to dial 911, won’t you please get out of bed! Howl, Furball cried! Translation, I’m too young and handsome, to die! Finally, dad came rumbling down the stairs, wearing nothing but his underwear! Really? The house is on fire, and dad comes down the steps in his underwear? I thought, get me, your little Princey girl out of this place! As I sat there on the couch, suffering from the vapors, waiting for dad to scoop me up, he rushed right on down to the basement! Mom came rushing right behind, not quite as romantic as dad swooping me up, but hey, the house was on fire, so mom to the rescue it is! To my chagrin, she followed dad to the basement, leaving me and the Furball behind! Next thing you know, mom came running back up the stairs and woke up the boy they call Wyatt and the little Hippie girl! Apparently, the fire was outside, in the rabbit hutch, where those double crossing bunnies Crazy and Hazey lived. After a while, the Fire Department arrived! I thought jackpot! I’ll be swooped up by a big burly fire fighter, carried outside, maybe a little CPR, a quick snapshot by the media, the cover of Time Magazine, Movie of the Week, who knew where this could have taken me! Apparently, the fire fighter didn’t buy my damsel in distress look, and went right past me, and you guessed it, to the basement! What were they doing down there? Playing pool? After the fire was under control and everything calmed down, I heard the shocking news! Blazey and Glazey, oops, I mean Crazy and Hazey were killed in the fire! Something like this really makes one stop and think, mom and dad could have lost their most precious possession. What would they have done without me? I will miss those bunnies! Oh, and one more thing, please check the batteries in your smoke alarms! No, really, get up now, and check those batteries!
