Hey dad, had an eventful night. Went on a treat heist of The Fetching Feline Pet Emporium thru a pup-sized drain! Risky but worth the lick. Enticed by Naturo wet meat, scored rawhide and meat sticks! Bruno and I, pulling off Pawsburgh’s greatest pet heist while you slept. Don’t worry, your ‘eccentric epicurean dreamer’ is safe at home. – Bubster
There I was, Billy Bob, perched at the edge of Upper Collie Canyon, looking over at the glowing lights of Pawsburgh. My gaze fixed on the giant neon sign that bore a giant paw, nestled above The Fetching Feline Pet Emporium. Now, this place was a veritable fortress, crammed to its whiskers with plush feline luxuries, pricey canine treats, and tonnes more such enticing loot.
My palate, forever loyal to fine victuals over plasticky toys, cast longing glances at Pup ‘n’ Go Taco Joint, a mere canine hop away. The scent of maple syrup coated pork steaks wafted over, awakening a tremor of anticipation in my belly.
I had been reticent about this whole heist. The swarming Poodle Pond, the consternating noise of Upper Black Bulldog Bay, and the outright riot at Pupsicle Palace; it was all so jarringly unlike my typical, tranquil life. But alas, I was here, and the die was cast.
My squad of furry outlaw pals yipped in eager anticipation; their enthusiasm had a way of being infectious. “It’s a risky job, mates, but God knows we need those treats and toys,” grumbled Bruno, our Rottweiler mastermind.
Inching closer, my nose caught wind of a rawhide and meat stick. My heart thudded in my chest. The heist was in the offing. As a flapjack lover, the draw of a rawhide was overpowering. I rectified my monocle, an accessory borrowed from some fairy tale, cleared my throat, and barked, “Team, let’s roll.”
Our entry point? A small, dog-width culvert connecting the Emporium to the municipal drains, navigable by my size, and reasonably sanitary. Not my first choice for a Saturday night out, but different strokes for different pups, I suppose.
The mission was clear. Bruno distracted the Emporium’s security guard, a gullible Great Dane, while I sleuthed my way into the store through the culvert.
As I emerged into the treasure trove that was The Fetching Feline Pet Emporium, I froze. There it was: Naturo wet meat. Its heavenly aroma was heady and entrancing. I fetched it reverently, then scampered to the specialty section to grab the rawhide and meat sticks. Oh, the stakes!
Just as I exited the culvert, I heard Bruno’s distinctive bark echo through the night air. The Great Dane was on to us. There was no time to lose. Securing my loot in a sack, I sprung out of the culvert, straight into Bruno’s expectant paws.
As we raced through the sleeping town, our triumph met exhilaration. I quickly handed Bruno his chew toys, all the while I kept my eye on my loot…the meat sticks and wet meat, in particular. As the night folded into dawn, we made it back home. Ah, sweet victory. As I burrowed into my trusted bed, I saw dad stir in his sleep, and for a crazy moment, I felt like sharing my wild adventure with him. I decided against it though, what with Billy Bob’s mysterious aura, it was safer having him think I was just an eccentric epicurean dreamer. And so, Bruno and I had pulled off the greatest pet heist in the history of Pawsburgh. All, while our beloved humans slumbered, oblivious to our audacious caper under the night sky.
