Female Solidarity

Dear Jay-Jay:

I agree with you that males can be very bossy and insensitive. Keep insisting on your rights! Remember, though, that they are not that way all the time. For example, the Dad two-legger is a good friend of mine. He has fur on his face, like I do. No one else here does. Oddly enough, he doesn't have any fur on his head--there is a bare spot. I lick that spot sometimes, when he's sleeping on the floor, to see if I can get some hair to grow, but none has so far. I feel bad for him. He made me a really neat toy--a kitchen sponge attached to a piece of elastic. I attack and shred the sponge while it bounces up and down. I love it.

I am seeing birds at my feeder now. Today, I even had a concert. I reclined on my ironing board nest, and watched a little house wren warbling away. He was perched on the top twigs of the bushes outside the window. He was not a professional singer, but it was a very nice concert. I would have clapped, but my paws don't make sounds when I strike them together. Maybe I should yowl next time?

Take care,

Furby
