Fuzzy Logic: Lost in Translation

...a story rooted in timeless truth, while maintaining a conveniently flexible relationship with objective fact.

About the Book

A Russian Dwarf hamster so old he’s forgotten to die.
A Holland Lop rabbit whose crusty exterior hides a warm heart.
A Labradoodle whose body moves long before his brain gets the message.
The antisocial house cat next door.
And a wisecracking wild squirrel with more schemes than a bestselling mystery author.

They don’t speak the same language.
They don’t share the same logic.
They barely understand each other at all.
It’s a microcosm of fur and communication failures — and when somebody shakes the jar, Fuzzy Logic reigns supreme.

Fuzzy Logic at a Glance

Selection from Chapter One — What Happened to Earnest

In this short excerpt, Earnest meets with an unexpected twist of fate.


The creature sighed and took a deep breath. “Me lag-a... lag... morpa –” she began sputtering like a car engine that won't start, “lagmora... no, um, lagalaga... gammalorp... no... lammagorm... no, that not it...”

Earnest was looking really alarmed now, ready to run into his hidey-hole and take deep breaths. “You ok? Medical emergency?” he asked.

“Ugh, no, me fine,” squeaked the creature. “Just so hard to say the word. Lag-o-morph. That's it. Lagomorph.” She said it slowly but with decision this time. She was sure she had it right.

“Lago-what?!” chittered Earnest. “Never heard of that.”

“In common language, it is 'rabbit,'” replied the creature. “Or 'hare,'” she added with a slight sneer and a twitch of her whiskers.

“Rabbit? Rabbit. Okay. But rabbit not a kind of rodent?” Earnest was starting to calm down now. “Lagomorph” was a pretty terrifying word. It sounded like a mysterious type of spell for transforming household cleaning tools into sentient creatures. “Rabbit”, however, sounded normal enough, and Earnest felt a bit more settled when this rabbit-creature stopped twitching and stuttering and mispronoucing things.
