Pet's Courage

I hit the "end call" button on my phone, and threw it across the room, unable to control the rage burning within me. My fists pounded on the wall, an incoherent stream of swears pouring from my muzzle. It was impossibly frustrating. I didn't even hear...

Pet's Punishment 2/10: Apprehension

Eight days after the phone call, I waited on the benches by the baggage claim for my Pet's return. I'd never let it on, but I missed him badly. My fur was conditioned and brushed, my salmon shirt and black slacks clean, and I tried to keep myself calm,...

Pet's Punishment 3/10: Punishment

I sat down on the carpet in front of him, legs folded beneath me. I set down the plastic, the wipes, and powder, unrolled the changing mat, and began to unfold the diaper: soft interior up, front and rear wings spread, laid out with the rear away from...

Pet's Punishment 4/10: New Normal

I'd prepared most of the meal in advance, having been waiting to welcome Sherman home all week. French onion soup, sweet squash, braised asparagus, and cheese-stuffed peppers, with a small, rich, dense chocolate cake for dessert. I was just laying out...

Pet's Punishment 5/10: Public

It was Saturday. We slept in late, Sherman curled up beside me, head resting on my chest. Only his pink nose emerged from a pile of blankets. I lay awake for a long time, feeling his warmth against me. I had longed for this while he was away. "Time to...

Pet's Punishment 6/10: Trust

"tell me about the purpose of the trip, the business reason behind it." i wanted to move the discussion away from the unusual, to return to mundane topics, get him used to going about his life trusting in his master's diapers to take care of him.

Pet's Punishment 7/10: Cleaning

"Stand up now, Pet. How does a shower sound?" I'd been working with wipes and brushes, and gotten him fairly clean. He was ready for powder and a fresh diaper, but we hadn't showered before brunch, which meant he hadn't showered since he got on the...

Pet's Punishment 8/10: Work

It was marvelous, having my Pet all to myself for a weekend, after a week without him. Nonetheless, as it always does, Monday came, and work came with it. Two alarms shattered the morning calm of our bedroom. My rabbit began to stir from his curled up...

Pet's Punishment 9/10: Simplicity

I was worried, when I got home, that I'd find my Pet angry for having put him in such a position. Slowly, I found myself opening the door to our apartment, a despondent look on my face, ready to apologize. He almost knocked me over. My reflexes...

Pet's Punishment 10/10: Confession

I thought maybe, for some reason, that would be an appropriate way to begin cleaning up after my mistake, to bring it back inside me, or . . . i don't know . . ." "it's ok," i stroked his back, "you did what you did, and i've forgiven you for it.

Pet's Solace (1 of 3) - Home

Waiting for the bus to complete its route, I kept my eyes fixed on the exit door, my expression vacant. Surely no one could draw conclusions from the cardboard box I carried. I needed to get home. Everything would be alright if I could just get home....
