Left behind

That's not a little red dog. That's a little tree swallow.

My Person left me home today, catsitting, while she went off to a very interesting place looking for sandhill cranes. She didn't find any. She found tree swallows instead.

She could have taken me with her but she was afraid I would bark and scare the cranes. But there weren't any cranes. Therefore I would not have barked. Therefore she should have taken me along with her. This is only logical.

I hope she learned her lesson. And I hope from now on I am not the default catsitter while she goes off on hopeless endeavors.
