I was originally going to title this, “Frankie and Frankie ” but then I thought it sounded like a law firm. I don’t know about the rest of the world, but in the Tampa Bay area lawyers love to hear their last name, so they include it twice in the name of their law firm. We have Morgan & Morgan, Farah & Farah, Catana & Catana and I’m just getting started but that is not the topic of this story.

During our walk yesterday, my Frankie encountered our neighbor’s Frankie under the bushes. She hissed and backed away. What did my Frankie do? He rolled over on his back, of course.

Earlier that day I saw the girl Frankie and called her name. She actually came to me, which was a shocker. She let me pet her head a couple of times then walked away.

Later that afternoon, after Frankie’s walk, I saw her again when I took the trash out. She didn’t come to me that time, but she did let me go to her. She almost let me pet her but backed away at the last second.

I think she’s warming up to me.
