Unusual Animal Couples #2: Peg + Gup

It was a crisp, October eve when Peg and Gup met,
She knew it was love when the sun began to set.
Peg was sampling a delicious pinecone when she saw Gup from afar,
His chiseled forehead and squishy blonde tummy made her nearly drop her jaw.

The hills were alive as they jogged to meet halfway,
through the creek and beyond the brush she waited for him to say
those few sweet words every squirrel dreams to hear,
"I'll be seeing you after hibernation and you'll be mine all year, my dear."

Unusual Animal Couples #1: Oswald + Dorothy

Oswald stormed in when he heard her in distress,
Poor Dorothy was unsure of how she got herself in this mess!
It began with a piece of cheese- a tasty slice of Havarti,
she loved it when her owners had their late night jam parties.

The paper bag swooped over her head as she reached for the slice,
at least there was a hole so she could breathe (which was quite nice).
Oswald made it there and one glance was all it took,
he saved his feline love with just one passionate look.
