Well it turns out that Megan is exactly as pregnant as I am! And that is not a good thing as I\u2019m a neutered male. It\u2019s all very strange. She went for her scan and as far as can be seen there are no puppies. However, both she and Aristotle are still convinced that she is pregnant. She wants more food. She wants to put her feet up. She wants to eat more. She gets tired more easily. Aristotle is dealing with it on a more basic level. He feels the need to cover her scent and if my Mistress leaves Megan\u2019s crate door open, he goes in her crate and pees everywhere. He says he has no idea why he has the need to do that. It\u2019s just a deep seated need to make sure no one else can smell that Megan has been there. It\u2019s his way of protecting her. I suggested he learnt to lock and bolt the front door instead as being a rather more useful means of protection when you live with humans.<\/p>\n
My poor Mistress doesn\u2019t know what to think. On the one paw she now wants to get on and make all the plans which were on hold pending Megan\u2019s pregnancy and on the other paw she keeps saying, \u201cBut what if it turns out that Megan is pregnant?\u201d I\u2019ve agreed a compromise with her. I\u2019ve said she should take Megan off the \u2018Fit and Fertile\u2019 and then see if things settle down. If they do then we\u2019ll know where we are and if they don\u2019t she should take Megan for another scan later on. She has grudgingly agreed that I might be right. Megan is now in a huff as she was enjoying the \u2018Fit and Fertile\u2019 and her coat does have a lovely shine to it. I did have some sympathy. I\u2019ve been getting to lick the saucer that my Mistress used to mix it with some yoghurt and I really enjoy that in a morning. At least I still get some yoghurt on my Weetabix.<\/p>\n
