. We’re not sure we believe it — with his pointy face, rat-like tail, narrow hips and stripe of bristly back hair — Archie doesn’t seem very Labby. But fine. Whatever.

When we have to actually leave — we do have jobs that preclude being total shut-ins — we exit through the study and put on a recording of Ruth talking. Archie loves patches of sunlight, even if they’re outside in the cold. He doesn’t like having his butt scratched, but he loves it when you rub his chest and belly.
