This is Brae and Bo .. my dog and cat … they are (for most of the time) best friends and snuggle buddies. Bo is the dominant one, she bosses poor Brae around, jumps on her, lies on her and tries to steal her treats!
Yesterday I had some friends round for a wee picnic in the garden. Bo did not appear all day, she was too busy sleeping in my cool bedroom and was obviously far to superior to come to say hello to my friends! Brae on the other hand was there with us, sunbathing in the garden and enjoying the odd chicken goujon flung her way.
When everyone had left I realised I had forgotten that I had bought a bag of sausage rolls so decided to fling them outside for Brae to eat (she wouldn’t come inside!) … she ate a few of them and gathered the others up into a little pile that she was guarding from Bo (who by this time had decided to get up and try to steal Brae’s treats!) .. Bo didn’t get a look in this time .. Brae chased her everytime Bo went within 6 feet of her wee pile of sausage rolls.
This morning I let Brae out and she went running over to her precious pile to find that Bo had obviously managed to get there during the night and had taken advantage of Brae’s absence. All (bar one) of the sausages had been eaten… Brae ate the remaining pastry and picked up the one complete sausage roll and kept it in her mouth for the next 30 minutes until we left for work .. she brought it to the car and has left it in the boot … she obviously isnt hungry but is determined that Bo won’t get it! It is honestly like having a couple of kids!
Brae. A gay woman's tale!
