A WEEK AFTER THAT IT was Christmas Eve. The dog still hadnât come back. None of the neighbors had seen it. The boy was confused. He wondered if maybe Barky had died, if his parents were just pretending Barky ran away because they didnât think the boy was old enough to understand about death.
But he knew that if the dog was still alive, he would eventually come back. The boyâs dad, who didnât know this, went to Uncle Rosieâs pet shop on Christmas Eve and came home with a cat. They named it Chestnut. The boyâs dad meant well, but the cat did not. That night, the catâs first night in their houseâChristmas Eve nightâChestnut got into the birdcage and bit the head off the boyâs bird, Chirpy.
