Wilder: Just one another, but they have a cousin boxer named Griffin.
Patch: How about a Nemesis?
Wilder: That would be Griffin, as well.
Patch: Favorite song or TV show?
Wilder: They only watch sports on television. They really enjoyed the Super Bowl. They never moved from the couch even during the Black Eyed Peas half-time show.
Patch: What did they get for Christmas?
Wilder: Toys with feathers on the end and cat nip.
Patch: If your pet was a ice cream flavor what would it be?
Wilder: As you can see, they're both very plump because they have hearty appetites. So if either one of them was an ice cream flavor, one would eat the other. Cat-ibalism. Gross. Let's hope that never happens.
Patch: Favorite place to take a nap?
Wilder: Mom's lap or in a box.
Patch: Favorite place to walk or play?
Wilder: They love to play on the patio and chase lizards.
Patch: What are their favorite snacks?
Wilder: At 5am when mom is trying to sleep.
