This was one of my Christmas presents.

I was convinced it was a dog, but all my friends said it was a cat – but they were the friends with kittens, so they were biased! It’s tail was much too short for any cat.

I agree that it’s whiskers were more cat-like, though.

He actually spends most of his time curled up on my sofa.

He can’t be a cat (even though the label on him said cat) because I won’t let a cat in the house in case it catches my robin – another Christmas present made by my great-niece.

So? I don’t care what my friends or the label say, this is a dog! Now he just needs a name (and I might trim his whiskers).
