cement danger!

Humans are so silly. I often wonder what mine would do without me around to keep them safe. Yesterday was a prime example.

In our park there is a main car park near the war memorial and a much smaller one near the entrance we usually use (although we walk to the park). Our local council have decided to increase the size of the smaller one, so there have been lots of workmen about making a cacophony(VBP) of noise as they dig up the area.

Anyway, yesterday as we were heading home from our walk we passed the workmen and there was this big metal monster making the most horrendous noise. It looked kinda like this:

this is something like it

Mummy said it was a cement truck. I point-blank refused to go anywhere near it, I mean can you imagine? We’d get sucked in and covered in cement! I don’t even want to think about how many baths it would take to get the cement out of my fur *shudder*

I dragged mummy as far away from it as I could and made it clear it was a no-go zone. She didn’t seem too impressed by my evasive maneuvers(VBP) but it was an emergency! Why do humans never appreciate our efforts to keep them safe? I doubt she would like to be covered in cement either.

When we finally got home she told daddy I was a scaredy-dog. Scaredy-dog?? Mummy, I just saved you from being immersed(VBP) in cement! I think I deserve some appreciation, don’t you?? Humans!! *holds paws up in despair*
