Food for Max was running low. His brand of food is kind of fancy, so it can’t be procured at the pet-supply box stores. Fortunately, there is a small specialty store for pets about a mile from here that carries his brand. Unfortunately, it closed at 4pm on Monday. Yikes! Would Max run out of food before I could get more?
Tune in next time…

I was pretty sure I had extra time yesterday because the store closed later. I was thinking that yesterday’s closing time was 5pm. My after school supervision duty lasted until 3:30. Then I watched the Middle School girls soccer game until halftime. By then it was 4pm. When I pulled into the parking lot of the pet food store it was… open! In fact, it was open until 6.
This store is called “Paws for Pets”. It’s in a weird little building and has a smashed-out sign, but it carries all kinds of specialty brands of pet food and has really low prices. Even if it wasn’t so close to me, I think I would still be giving it a bradaptation recommendation.
(Just watch out for the early closing time on Monday.)

“Hello, do you have Prince Albert in a can?”
So, are you throwing in obscure pictures just to see if we’re awake? I’m not, by the way.
I think your store is selling stolen cat food. That’s how they can keep their low, low prices.
It is cat food made from stray dogs…that is how they sell it so cheap. I am staying away!
Or, alternately, “Prosthesis for Pets”?
How about “Filled Follicles for Felines?”
Filled follicles? Would that be the hair itself? Can a follicle be for anything besides hair? Hmmm…
like zits?
…or in Max’s case, “Fur for Felines”!
…and was the Santa smoking the Camels poster also in your Basement Box O’ Awesome then, or what?
[Brent - you should have seen Brad launch the Force Commander's fist and tummy missal (Now I know that's not the proper form of the word, but I finally got the dotted red line beneath it to go away, so I forge ahead now nonetheless) in MS chapel this morning. Sadly, no choke-worthy student was in either's path at the time...]
…so could you like trade in a pet for, say, a rabbit’s foot key chain?
But the sign seh-zzz….!
I am very sure that they also sell crack for cats there…it just has that look to it. Stay away from the wacky weed, Max!
