Needy Cat?

Malin, our black cat, came up in the bed tonight and laid claim to Daniel's lap. I had planned to lie there.

It seems like this cat is needy, sometimes. She needs to be the one who is closest to Daniel or Paula at times. 

Pepe and I let the cats be closest when they are there first. Our humans belong to them as well. We are not so needy.

Dog Theft

The parliament of Scotland has passed a new law, making the theft of dogs a more serious crime than ordinary theft. 

We believe this is an improvement of the law. Dogs are more than just ordinary property. Dogs are living beings and man's best friend. 

In England, a similar law has already passed, but it is about more pets and include cats. While our cats Malin and Totte vbelieve this is better, Pepe and I believe it is not as necessary. Cats are important, but far from as important as dogs. 

We will have to see when a similar law is passed in Sweden. It is a step towards a better society, so it should be soon.

Rest

Daniel got up early in the morning, like he usually does on Monday mornings.

The rest of us took a day of rest. After the dog show the last weekend, we believe we needed it and deserved it. 

Daniel would also have deserved a day of rest. He did not want one, though. His sense of duty is strong. This is admirable. Meanwhile, Pepeand I did our duty, to accompany Paula on her day of rest. This must also be admirable, mustn't it?

Second Day at Show

Pepe and I served at the dog show today as well. We did not need to make public relations for quite as long as yesterday, but a lot of people were very happy to see us. 

We came home tonight. The show and the hotel were nice, but there is no place like home. We can sleep in our own bed tonight. 

Life is good, when it feels like you have made people happy.

Public Relations

Pepe and I, with some help of Paula, manned the Chihuahua boothat the Stockholm Dog Show this afternoon. We met a lot of people, most of whom were happy to see us. 

We believe we sold our breed to a lot of people. It was fun, but it was also hard work. Pepe and I would never complain over hard work, but we did get tired. We are happy to rest at the hotel this evening. Tomorrow, we will be back again.

Queue

We were stuck in a car queue for about an hour this afternoon. Other cars had been involved in an accident. We are lucky we were not involved in anything but the long queue. 

The reason we were there at all, was that we were going to Stockholm. There is a big dog show there this weekend. You can meet Pepe and I in the Chihuahua booth there, if you are nearby. If not, this is a self evident thing for me to write about in the blog tomorrow. Stay tuned!

Name Day

We celebrated Daniel on his name day today. Celebrating name days is a Swedish tradition. It derives from the Catholic tradition to celebrate saints on their feast days, connected with the given names of the saints. Since Pepe and I are of Catholic, Mexican, decent, we approve of this. 

Congratulations, Daniel!
