Red and Rover by Brian Basset for October 28, 2019

For a six year old, cooties, fleas, louse … six to one, half dozen to another.

Or fleas from Ruby.

I seem to remember a few weeks ago two girls looked at Red and he was flattered, and looked back. Now he’s gone back to cootieism?

No hug for dear, sweet, and wonderful Rover? What is wrong with that girl?¹

Me thinks Ruby has an adolescent crush on our Mister Red.

Maybe Ollie needs a new flea collar.

Gasp! Now MY dog has fleas….and so do I! MOOOOOOM

Rover and Ollie are so cute together.

The cup cakes didn’t sweeten Red up at all.

Look out, Rover. You might get flea/cooties too, lol!

Let’s see – cupcakes for a hug; that is a tough call!

Oh sure blame the dog.

And that’s how it all starts. :-)

Watch out for those girls, Red…Whatcha gonna be this HALLOWEEN?

In 3rd grade (early 60s!), a kid in my class came over to me at lunch and said (I thought) you have cooties. Well, later I found out he said I was a cutie! Memories, memories!

Could be something else under his skin.
