Dear Tally:
My person was eating a big chocolate bar the other day and it smelled so good! Do you like chocolate?

Dear Cocoa Nutz:
It may look and smell good, but chocolate contains two toxic compounds, theobromine and caffeine. Those ingredients
can cause vomiting, diarrhea, heart failure, tremors, seizures, and even death!
Dark chocolate and baking chocolate have higher levels of these substances, and the toxic amounts depend on your weight.
To answer your question, I don't know if I like the taste of chocolate because I'm too smart to eat it!
Your friend ~ Tally
Dear Tally:
I'm starting to get quite the reputation in my neighborhood because I'm pregnant with my third litter in 2 years!!
It seems every other house is already home to one of my babies and I'm due with six more next month. Can you help?

Dear Naughty:
My goodness you've been a busy girl, but I won't even go there. Do everybody a favor and have your people schedule
you for an ovariohysterectomy, commonly called a SPAY!
Not only will this drastically reduce the number of unwanted kittens in your neighborhood, but will help reduce
your risk of developing mammary cancer later in life.
Another benefit is that it eliminates the chance of pyometra (a uterine infection), which is a life threatening condition that results in emergency spay surgery and can be quite costly.
Good Luck ~ Tally
