Crumbs

Crumbs, a very handsome chi of 4 pounds (much of it fabulous hair), is ready to live large on a steady diet of his four basic food groups: snuggles, pets, belly rubs and snoogles. A lap is a favorite venue, but our wee boy will fit on a small couch, in an armpit, under a high-end hand towel or beneath a small corner of large duvet. You decide, and he’ll be fine, as long as stairs aren’t part of the bargain. And what is that bargain? You offer gentle devotion and he returns it with all his might. Does it get any better? We’re doubtful.
