Maru Croaks

Once upon a time there was a lonely frog bed, who lived in the same house as Maru. The frog bed waited in a corner, hoping that Maru would climb into its soft, inviting mouth for a satisfying nap. But for ten years Maru never slept in the frog bed, and it grew depressed. “Oh, fairy godmattress,” lamented the bed. “Why won’t Maru sleep in me?” To which she replied “It’s your breath. Seriously, it smells like dead flies in there. Have you tried new chicken-flavored Listerine?” And so at last, Maru favored the frog bed with a visit, and they lived happily ever after. The end.

What a ribbeting story, Andrew Y.

    Not sure I want to know the Grimm version of this fairy tale…

      Him sleeping in this bed is one of the cutest things ever.

      And, yes, “fairy godmattress”…….LOL!

    Is it just me or does Maru look extra thick in this video? His tail looks wider!

    Gorgeous boy!

    Mike, your post title gave me a momentary heart attack, before I realized you would never be so flippant if anything had happened to our darling Maru.
