The world famous, much revered
Miss Sophie la Brador
came to visit our most
humble abode.

She deigned to greet her subjects
from her personal travelling crate.
(which is why it is not solid gold,
as she is accustomed to, ya know?)

First I, Gustavus Adolphus Dagger
approached and paid my respects.
She rewarded my homage with a benevolent nod
of her magnificent head, and dismissed
me to my terrier duties.

Miss Teka, of course
was far more bold.
Venturing to put her entire brazen
head into the royal abode.
For which she was rebuked with
the cut direct and a chilling stare.

Once the minions had been dismissed,
the beautiful Miss Sophie
took a well deserved rest
from her travels.
She ventured into Carytown to see the sights,
while Teka and I pined at home. We are
not as well behaved or well socialized, you see.
We hope she enjoyed the Sweet Frog!
Gussie and Teka
A note from Muzzer: Seriously guys, this went much better than I expected. And it is all
due to Miss Sophie, who just kind of chilled and relaxed, and stunned the terrible two into
doing the same!
Thank you S&S for a fine lesson in Etty Kett.
