Carolyn's Critters

Dear Elsa,
You’ve been playing with my laptop again.
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mum,
Maybe.
Love, Elsa

Dear Elsa,
I know it’s you. You’re the only one who clicks on Enable Dictation. Every time.
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mum,
I had to go on the internets to see Rackarkatten.
Love, Elsa

Dear Elsa,
What is that?
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mum,
Not what, who.
Love, Elsa

Dear Elsa,
Ok, who is Rackarkatten?
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mum,
She’s my HERO!!!!!!!!!
Love, Elsa

Dear Elsa,
Are we talking about a cat?
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mum,
Not just any cat, a famous cat! Her name means Rascal Cat. She lives in Sweden and she’s really fast! 
Love, Elsa

Dear Elsa,
A wild cat? Like a cheetah, or an ocelot?
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mum,
No! She’s a regular cat!!!! A great big fluffy Siberian. And she loves to race.
Love, Elsa

Dear Elsa,
She races with other cats?
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mum,
No!!! She races with her person on the country roads around their house! His name is Magnus. She wins every time.
Love, Elsa

Dear Elsa,
A man and a cat race around the Swedish countryside?
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mum,
Yes!!!!! It started when Magnus took her for walks. Then she found she likes to run. And then, she discovered she likes to race!!!!! 
Love, Elsa

Dear Elsa,
Ok, I had to look that up and I found her on the internet! She’s seventeen years old and semi-retired now, but she’s still impressive!
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mum,
She is!!!!! She’s my hero!!!  You should start calling me Elsakatten.
Love, Elsa

Dear Elsa,
She’s a competitive lass, just like you! And I like that she’s a big floof, and one would assume that this is a cat who would prefer a fireside nap, but instead she’s a killer competitor on the raceway! 
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mum,
She wins every time! Even in the snow.
Love, Elsa

Dear Elsa,
Magnus shovels out a track for her.
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mum,
I’m really fast too! I’m as fast as the wind!!!!!
Love, Elsa

Dear Elsa,
You are, and with thundering feet. I don’t know how such a dainty girl can make such a racket on my wooden floors.
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mom,
That’s what it takes to be a winner just like Rackarkatten!
Love, Elsa

Dear Elsa,
You do have a “bring it on” sort of winner vibe when you’re growling at Winston under the bed. I Just wish that weren’t at 4:30 in the morning. You are a bit of a rascal, so maybe we’ll start calling you RackarElsa.
Love, Carolyn
