It's a Cat's Life

Who Is "Christmas" and Why Is He Getting All the Cool Toys?

December 22, 2004

Dear Diary,

Something strange is going on around here, and I don't like it one bit.

My Emily hung up big socks on the railing in the living room. One of them had meece in it so I took one out and played with it, but she put it back, and told me I couldn't have it cuz it's for Christmas.

Then I discovered something that looked fun to play with. It had a bag of something on it that smelled really good and I wanted to smell it forever. Then I saw that it had a dangly thing too, and I tried to play with it, but Meowm took the whole thing and hid it from me and said that it, too, was for Christmas. I wish it was for me. I would like to eat the stuff in the bag and hit the dangly thing and scratch on the cardboard.

What I want to know is who is this "Christmas" fella and why is he getting all the cool toys?

I must investigate.

Sincerely,
Sweet William
