If My Pet Could Talk…

If your pet could talk, what would be the first thing it says?

If my pet could talk, I suspect the first thing it would say would be:

“Finally. Took you long enough.”

Followed immediately by:

“And while I have your attention… where’s my food?”

Because let’s be honest, I’m not entirely convinced pets are secretly waiting for the ability to communicate profound thoughts about the universe.

I think most of them have a fairly straightforward agenda.

Food.

Walkies.

Attention.

More food.

And occasionally:

“Why did you close that door? I specifically wanted to go through it.”

I’d like to think my pet would eventually tell me how much they love me.

But I suspect there would be a fairly lengthy list of complaints first.

Why the vet.

Why I leave the house.

Why I don’t share my dinner.

Why I don’t understand that the ball being underneath the sofa is clearly an emergency requiring immediate human intervention.

And perhaps the biggest question of all:

“You can understand me now. So why on earth did it take you this long to figure out that I wanted to go outside?”

Honestly, I’m not sure giving pets the power of speech would improve our relationship.

It might simply give them evidence for their case. 😂

Still…

I’d love to hear it.

Even if the first words were:

“Food. Now.”

Stay Fabulous,
