Mayapay and Marty


Mayapay is a senior citizen. Older than mama in dog years. 


So says Bayani. When Belen calls Mayapay for breakfast and dinner, he doesn't respond. That's when we learned he's deaf. So deaf that I can creep up behind him unnoticed. Marty, on the other hand, is crazy in love. He spends hours on the window sill staring outside at his lady love. He likes to sleep on top of the TV and the fridge on his back with his legs in the air. Or sit with his back against the wall like a fluffy buddha that has had too much to drink.

Salamat propesora! I love animals. we had four dogs and over seven cats at my family home when I l;ived withg them... Come by my site and say hello sometime.... Come June I will be able to see Davao again (from 1600 miles I may be squinting, but I believe my plane m ay travel overhead) . Still, at 1600 miles, I am sure the wafyting of the durian may pass through to the island I visit...

oi maya, marti is not crazy in love. he's just curious and wants to go out and play with the cats outside the house. besides, castrated na cya so dili nana mangigat, hehe..
