So there I was having my 11th nap of the day when I heard something at the front door. It wasn’t the usual sound of keys in the lock, but rather the sound of splintering wood.

Suddenly the door flung open after a loud crack and two Apes entered. I’d never seen them before so I immediately knew they were intruders.

But what was I worried about? We have a dog right? Wrong. More like a chicken with fur. ScapeGoat The Dog let out a small whimper and hid under the couch. My hero!

I remained still on the couch as the two men looked around. They seemed pleased with the contents of the living room and started to unplug the television and stereo. If I were a dog, which I’m not, I would’ve done something about it. However, I wasn’t about to let this disruption interfere with my nap schedule. Without completing my 11th nap, I’d never get to the 12th. So I laid my head on my paw and tried to close my eyes.

Then I heard something disturbing. “There’s a computer upstairs” one of the Apes said.

What! Oh no they don’t! That computer is my only lifeline to the outside world. Springing into action, I headed to the den. I got there just in time too. They were just about to start unplugging all the wires.

Time to make myself look big. I arched my back and let out a low growl while commanding my fur to stand on end. This made the Apes back away from the machine. I approached them and let out a howl.

They ran from the room and closed the den door behind them. Success! Me much man!

The thieving Apes are still in the house right now as I type this. Sounds like they’re going to get everything else not nailed down.

Looks like I’m stuck here in the den until the Big Hairless Ape comes home. I can’t wait for the praise when he sees I saved the computer.

There had better be a treat the size of Manhattan in store for me!
