The Strudwick File: Cheerio, Strud

As you know, Strudwick has been on a vet-recommended diet this summer to lose a few lbs. His weight has been going in the right direction – with the exception of the occasional cheat day (see here and here) – and now it seems like Strud has settled into his healthier lifestyle.

Just don’t confuse “healthier” with “better behaved.”

Strud was up to his usual shenanigans this week when he raided the pantry, but there was a notable difference to the breaking and entering. Instead of going for the hot chocolate powder or brownie mix, our four-legged friend opted for a box of Cheerios.

We can only assume he was inspired by all those cute commercials touting the heart-healthy, cholesterol-lowering benefits.

This latest cereal snatching reminded Megyn of a similar incident she forgot to share with us earlier this summer. She came into the living room to catch Strud in the act of chowing down on an unidentified snack. Watch:

Fortunately, she was able to track down the discarded box in the kitchen and determined it was Cheerios. She later found an empty bag of granola as well, so we can only assume Strudwick was mixing his breakfast foods.

Nonplussed by the scene? Strud’s sister Thunder.

Our resident good girl appeared to be calmly sniffing for scraps when Megyn ran into her, but all she seemingly found were a few remaining shreds of packaging. Better luck next time, sis! After all, we know what you are capable of!
