The Pets Have Their Own Opinion

Marlee and her family had had a wonderful vacation. They had made lots of stops on the way home to pumpkin patches. They had visited with friends they hadn't seen in a long time. Marlee had not been noticed by the talent scout which disappointed her. She so wished that she could go to Hollywood and be a big star in the movies. She wanted to be famous.
She decided that she would dress up in her princess dress to go trick or treating and that would have to do. She  did love to dress up in her princess dresses and of course, the candy. She always remembered to say thank you and wished everyone a happy Halloween.

Since Marlee's family visited the ice cream shop on their vacation news of a talent scout being in town had spread all over that small town. Of course, word of it was heard in Marlee's small town too. Not only the people, but their pets. Pets listen to their humans don't they? The animals had been told they needed to look their best at all times because it would be so neat for them to be in the movies. So they dressed them and groomed them. Farm animals, house pets, all kinds of animals were being bathed and brushed and dressed in things that were embarrassing just to make their humans happy.  Humans were found with their animals wearing sunglasses so just in case the talent scout should see them looking their best they were ready to go.

Mouse kept going to the window just in case the talent scout should come to their house. She was the only pet in the whole place that was excited. Lucky and Tiger were too interested in their toys and looking smart to want to be discovered by the talent scout. They were happy just the way things were at their house.


Hercules thought the whole thing was ridiculous. He was happy just finding a bed to lay down on. "Good grief, there are five beds in this house and they are all taken but this little one. I think they forgot that I'm not a puppy anymore. Oh well, it's time for a nap."

Margaret had even gotten a new house to show to the talent scout in case she stopped on her way to the farm. She was so proud of her new house it was called a cat chalet. Her coat was all clean and beautiful; she was ready for Hollywood.

Nova didn't want to be famous, she just wanted to go to Marleewood because she knew that Grandma Lu would have treats for anyone that went to the Halloween party. She loved her new Halloween sweater.

Randall's Buddy hoped that Marleewood's Halloween party had games. He especially loved "Chase the red dot" game that he loved to play at home.

The talent scout just turned into the driveway to one of her favorite places: The Anderson Farm.
