Pip as a Baby Beluga<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n

I found this creature in my kitchen last night, just before we were about to sit down for supper. The creature had a note on top of it (see note in picture above). The note says:<\/p>\n

\u00a0Baby Balouga<\/strong> (Beluga<\/em><\/strong>)<\/span><\/h2>\n

treat her nicely and name her<\/strong><\/h2>\n

and don’t put her in water<\/strong><\/h2>\n

because she got bit by a sarck<\/strong> (shark)<\/em><\/span><\/h2>\n

I named her Salia after the West Coast Aboriginal people (the Salish).\u00a0She was feeling perky enough to eat her supper of lemon chicken, broccoli and rice. <\/span><\/p>\n

We have followed her instructions and not put her in water; however, I think it is only a matter of time until she forgets about the shark and longs to splash in the waves once again. She’ll have to have a bath sometime this week!<\/span><\/p>\n

Pip is always full of fun surprises. Our house has become a safe haven for a menagerie of exotic animal pets and monsters<\/a>. The baby beluga seemed to appear out of thin air. Pip must remember our visit to see the real baby beluga at Vancouver aquarium<\/a> a few years ago.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
