the truth

fine. okay. i'm jealous of the dog known as petra.



fig is my very favoritest bestest friend sister loveliest role model in the whole entire wide world and i love her more than anything, and it used to be just me and her.



and now fig likes her better.



it just makes me sad. but it makes me feel too vulnerable to tell people i'm sad, so i just act like i'm angry at her. i just want my sister back, but she'd rather spend time with petra than with me.



i'm going to go hide under the covers and cry.

Oh Taddy,
Don't be sad. I know Fig is just busy teaching Petra the ropes. She still loves you loads. I know I do!!
PS : Could you email Mom your new address at Massah in law?

Tad - you are breaking our hearts! We have a theory though...do you think Fig REALLY loves Petra, or do you think maybe it's part of some bigger plan? (It's obvious in their snuggling picture that Fig is merely protecting the hamburger!) Fig is smarter than you give her credit for - she may just be keeping her enemies close, so to speak. I guess we'll have to wait and see how things develop. But in the meantime, try not to be too upset. We still love you tons!

Hi, Tad.
Don't be jealous! Sure Fig loves you but she needs to teach Petra some things.
Please don't cry. Maybe is not the same but you have all of us who love you so much!
I hope things go better soon!
Have a good night

Buck up there boy. You need to join in with them. Petra could become as dear to you as Fig. The three of you could play together all day. Come out from under that blanket and get on with life. Being jealous will only eat at you and make you a bitter old Tadpole.

Ozzie, Rocky and Lola said...

Oh Tadpole, you know that's not true. Fig still loves you buds! She just has to teach the little one the ropes and that takes up some the the attention you are used to her spending on you. It will get better, just wait and see. In no time at all you guyz will be just like the Three Muskateers!

Poor Taddy! You should have a serious heart-to-heart with them about how you feel left out. Just remember that you knew Fig first!!!

Tad we hope you feel better soon and get over being jealous of Petra because I bet if you let yourself she would become your friend also.

Amber-Mae said...

Don't be sad Tad, I know Fig still likes you. You are her brudder & I know he loves you more than anything else. I hope everything will go well with you all...

Tad, I think you can make this situation work for you. My uncle Jakey was pretty pissed that I took Trigger away from him, but now he has found his place and we are the Three Musketeers (you know, doggy-style). He's still the Fun Police but even the Fun Police has to let loose occasionally.

Ferndoggle said...

Taddy, just wait. That cute puppy stuff will be fun for a while and then it will be annoying. Fig will remember how cool & pawesome you are.

Hi Tad,

I'm with Luckie, Fig still loves you, she just doesn't want Petra to feel left out. I mean, who would NOT love a little Chinese man?

And you are right to think my sissy is a bit off-putting. And you're not the only one! She didn't get bitten cuz she was minding her own business.

wally.

ps. It was a good weekend for the Huskers. They didn't play and so, they didn't lose!

Ruby Bleu said...

Hey Taddy-whack...OK, it will all be fine. There is ABSOLUTELY NO REASON TO BE JELLYFISH!!! Fig still loves you and heck, you are the only bro she has so she HAS to love you. And you should try and be Petra's friend...I think the two of you would have so much fun together...who else will teach her how to eat baby carrots?

It will all work itself out! Lots of Licks, Ruby

Frasier said...

Hi Tadpole,
I think Fig is trying to make you jealous so that she can find out how much you like/love her.
So dont be sad !!

Oh Tad, please don't be sad. I think Fig just thinks Petra is the newest toy....she'll get over it soon enough.

You're still my favorite Tad!!

Stanley said...

Hey, Taddy boy!

I can understand your jealousy, man. But, Petra wants to be YOUR friend too, buddy. I think that if you and Petra become buds, then you two can play with Fig together. (Better than no Fig at all, right?)

Go ahead and cry if you feel like it bud. But, I happen to know your Figgles is unwilling to admit how much she loves you! Please don't fret!

Goober love & extra smooches,
Stanley

Pee ess
My girl still wants to reach through the pooter & hug you up and give you kissies all over (>>major eyeroll<<)

Ricky Pepper said...

Awww don't be sad Tad, Petra just needs a buddy right now and Fig is taking care of her. Maybe you can take care of her too and all 3 of you can be best buds?

xoxo,
Ricky

Petra said...

I'd come under the covers & cry with you, if you'd let me.

Jean M Fogle said...

Three is always a hard number, try to keep your chin up!

Lady Kaos said...

Penny's right, Tad. Once the newness of Petra wears off, you'll be the center of Fig's attention again. We all still love you a bunch Tad!

Oh Tad Sweetheart!

Fig and Petra have no idea what they are missing. I think you would be the bestest cuddle buddy!
