The Bone Of Contention

Here it is. The Actual Bone Of Contention.
Bindi the jungle dog* kept me awake all through the night as she lay in her kennel guarding her new bone from imagined forays by the cats to steal it. Meanwhile, the cats tore around the bedroom all riled up by not being able to get out past the dog (whose kennel is outside the bedroom door). I'd throw them out past the dog and they'd sneak back, causing the dog to growl and snap and no one got any sleep.

Then at 5:30 am we got up and took a walk in the pouring rain. File this under Life With Pets.
