I love to walk in the sunshine. I especially love springtime when the flowers are in bloom. I stop to smell them all.

Hi, my name is Bo. I love to walk outside with my Mommy. She always puts my leash on to keep me close and safe.

Rainy days don’t get me down. I run and roll as on any other day.

Even if it is cold I bundle up in my purple fleece coat. Mommy bought it especially for me.

My most exciting walks are the ones when I see a cat along the way. When I see one that crosses my path I start to cry and my tail wags so hard it feels as if it is going to fly right off.

I want to so badly to get close to this cat. As I moved toward her she hissed at me and ran away. I don’t understand why she doesn’t want to get close to me.

Some cats stand still and hunch their backs when I try to come close. Others run when they see me coming down the sidewalk.

I get so excited when I see one that seems she might want to be my friend. However, by the time I get close enough to sniff her she runs away.

One cat disappeared into the street drain to hide and get far, far away from me. It makes me sad. Why don’t cats understand I only want to be their friend?

Every day, when I go walking, I hope it will be the day I meet my special friend, a cat just for me. I look for a cat friend in the morning before Mommy goes to work. I look for a cat friend in the evening when Mommy comes home. I look during the week. I look on weekends. I am always looking for a cat friend.

Today, while Mommy worked, I slept until she came home. When I heard her put the key in the door lock, I woke up.

It was late that day when she got home – it was very dark. As we walked to the mailbox, I felt tonight would be a special night. When we got to the mailbox a gray tabby cat walked toward me. She came very close to me. I was so excited. When we started to walk she followed. Oh, how exciting.

Could this be the cat friend I have been looking for? Is she the one I have been waiting for all this time? Please! Please, be my friend!

As Mommy and I walked toward the house the cat followed and started to purr.

The cat ran in front of us and lay down on the sidewalk. Mommy held me back as she gently petted her.

Mommy saw how much I wanted to meet her too. I was prancing around with tail wagging fast.

Finally our noses touched. She wanted to get to know me as much as I wanted to get to know her. My wish was coming true tonight. Oh, I am making friends with this cat.

Every day is a new adventure with Mommy. Every day I hope to see my cat friend. Will I see her again today?

It is a new day; the sun is shining. Down the steps of our front porch we go. Look Mommy! Look! There is my cat friend. She is walking this way. I started to pull Mommy toward my friend.

Before I knew it I was touching noses with my friend again.

My friend lay on her back showing that she trusted me. I sniffed my friend while Mommy petted her tummy.

I have finally found a cat friend. I can’t wait to go outside every day to play with my new friend. I think we should all love one another regardless of our differences.
