Pet Loving Santa

Empathetic Pet Loving Santa was overrun by the best of pets.
There were puppies and kitties, and hamsters who made bets.
We were hesitant to visit because there was always fur in his pie.
Please have some! He would say. We declined without telling him why.

'Fur in the pie'.... quite probable if Santa is surrounded by pets... lol ! The only thing that I abhor about pets is the fur they drop on the carpet and cushions! Very interesting Caren !

:-). Caren! Long time, dear friend. So sorry. I must catch up reading your work. This is a delightful work, sending smiles as well as vivid imagery and memories for me and Jim as we’ve been waiting in the pet Santa line trying to control a leash. Thank you!

Thank you - we have a giant puppy that is 80 pounds - Buddy - he was dumped here; a cross between a great Dane and a German Shep. We are in love but our 12 year old cocker is not amused, and our cat has disappeared
