I think we need a dog....

Riding back from the dentist this A.M.:

Me: C got a dog.
J: No.
Me: I didn't ask you anything...
J: It's a RULE. One of the cats has to die first.
Me:  Why?
J: It's MY RULE.
Me: Why though? It seems arbitrary.
J: There will be a snuggle attention deficit. The cats barely get enough attention now.
Me: Starting this summer both boys will be in school, and I've been making an effort to snuggle S more. He misses O. P doesn't cuddle.
J: Two animals ONLY.
Me: You said we could get two older companion dogs.
J: I've revised my opinion.
Me: I contest the revision.
J: We'll discuss this upon the death of a cat, or when B turns five. Whichever happens first.
Me: Sigh...
