My experience with Sir and Miss last weekend was nothing like I had experienced before. I spent the weekend literally being pet. I spent some time in a cage, played fetch with Sir, and barked at the bathroom door every time I needed to use the toilet. For the first time, I also wore a collar; and as much as I do not like things around my neck, wearing the pink “Sir and Miss” collar made me feel great. Every time I look at the collar, (which is now hanging on a hook on a wall,) I am reminded of what I want out of this relationship. It also reminds me of my place as a pet, that it is okay to talk with them when I need to, and that it is okay to lean and not be strong all on my own. Wearing the collar also means that the titles of Sir and Miss are back, that I am once again allowed to address them with those titles, and that I am “pet” once again. The collar, to me, represents emotional stability and the sense of safety that I feel when I am with Sir and Miss.
Friday evening started out a little bit awkwardly. I was nervous as hell, and I was not exactly sure why. I had talked to a few people earlier, trying to figure it out; but could not find the cause of all the anxiety. Everyone I talked to said the same thing though, that I needed to relax and just enjoy the experience.
After some small talk and some nervousness on my part, I slowly crawled over to the cage that was sitting in Sir and Miss’s living room. Inside, I found the pink collar that I wanted so desperately to wear. I was not quite sure what to do with it, so I brought it over to Sir and Miss and tried a couple times to ask/beg for them to place it around my neck. Something about the collar hit me and made me tear up. Miss, seeing my tears, held me for a bit and hushed me; saying that this was supposed to be happy. Not wanting me to go into some emotionally dark places, Miss ordered me to get the Hitachi wand and have an orgasm.
It had been so long since I had had an orgasm. This was mainly because of the emotional roller coaster ride I had been on, the past two weeks. I had grown a lot, made a few mistakes, and was lacking some closure; so it only made sense that I was not in the mood for sexual pleasure. It was as though emotional turmoil caused a loss of horniness for me; and I had almost forgotten what it felt like. I am happy to say though, that one of the outcomes of this visit with Sir and Miss is that my horniness meter is back in working condition.
I was horrible at remembering to call them Sir and Miss for the first ten minutes of wearing the collar; but after some time, a trip to the laundry room for a time out, some push-ups, crunches, and a firm smack, I got the idea. I sat briefly by Sir’s feet after having a nice orgasm before he told Miss to put me into the cage. I had not had a hug from him yet; and I was feeling Sir-hug deprived. While sitting in the cage, all of the emotions that were avoided during the first few moments of wearing the collar came back. There was no orgasm to distract me this time; and I think, for once, I was okay with letting my emotions out.
When those emotions came, I really wanted a hug; especially from Sir. It isn’t that I do not enjoy Miss’s hugs, I do, a lot; but there is something about being held by Sir that’s different. I get a sense of safety and security when I am being held by him. While I didn’t know it at the time, I can say now that I wanted his hug because I was scared. I was scared of screwing things up again, losing the titles, being lost, never getting to play with them again, and just losing them. At the same time, I was (and still am a little) scared of leaning and getting attached. The first set of fears is a little irrational, but there is a bug inside me that always tells me about those scary scenarios. There is always something in my head telling me not to fuck things up. I am working to get rid of it. As for the second set of fears; there is really no point in having them. The truth is, I got attached a long time ago, and I have been leaning. Coming to that realisation really spooked me, and I am learning to accept it and embrace it.
It is as if, for my entire life, I have had a fighter defending me, and a hamster running on a wheel, causing me to overthink. I have already had the pleasure of experiencing what it feels like when the hamster stops; but now my goal is to kill the fighter. I have been using him as a crutch, to fight my way out of emotional things like attachment; but it is time I started embracing my emotions.
A little while later, Sir finally let me out of the cage and gave me a much-craved hug. I clung onto him for a little while, not wanting to let go. I wanted my tears, anxiety, fear, and insecurity to go away; and his hug helped. I stayed with him on the floor for the rest of the night, while Miss fell asleep on the couch. Some time had passed, when Sir took a bathroom break and returned – without his pants on.
He instructed me to lie down with my head on his thigh, and to suck on his cock slowly. At this point, two thoughts passed through my mind. 1) Was Miss okay with this? and 2) I hope I don’t choke too much. I looked up at Miss, sleeping so peacefully on the couch and assumed (yes, I assumed…again) that she and Sir had talked about what was okay and what wasn’t. After a short little argument between my gut and my brain, I decided to just follow Sir’s lead and suck on his cock. As for the choking, I learned to take it slowly. For the first little while, Sir would not let me put my mouth any further than halfway down his shaft. It was a good lesson on taking things slow, instead of rushing for everything.
I continued sucking his cock until Miss suddenly woke up, left the couch abruptly, brought a pillow and a blanket down for me, and rushed off to bed. She was not ticked. I looked at Sir and asked him if she was okay. He said that yes, she was okay, and that she was just tired. I strongly disagreed with that, but felt that it was not my place to argue with him. I followed him upstairs to get the toothbrush out of his room, but stopped at the top of the stairs. I heard Miss say something to Sir about not being included. Miss was upset, and probably would not have wanted me to walk into her room at that point. At that moment, I felt a wave of guilt pass through me.
A minute or two later, Sir came out with the toothbrush and toothpaste. He followed me downstairs and said goodnight. After brushing my teeth, I crawled into the cage and got comfy. I’ll admit, that it was not easy sleeping, knowing that Miss was going to bed angry. She had put a lot of planning into this weekend, and it sucked that it wasn’t working smoothly.
I woke up at around 8:00 that morning, to the sound of cats jumping on and off the cage, playing with the wires behind the TV, knocking stuff over in the kitchen, and rolling my Chapstick around the floor. I got up to clean up the garbage can in the kitchen and retrieve my Chapstick; and after a short bathroom break, I crawled back into the cage. I cocooned myself with the duvet and lounged until I heard the sound of the bath tub upstairs. From the sound of the footsteps, it seemed as though Sir was having a bath and Miss was joining him. I was still a tad unsettled from last night, still feeling a bit guilty, but also hopeful that everything would work out.
My doubts were eased when both Sir and Miss came down to greet me. I asked her if she was okay, and she said that she was. All was good again. Later, in an online conversation, Miss said something that made me think. She said that it was not my place to take care of her. While I understood what she meant, my brain decided to wander a little bit more. Was it my place to feel guilty? I mean, I cannot really help the way I feel about things; but if my job is to obey and be pleasing, should I not have just been happy for doing what I was told?
This is a great example of how logic does not always work. For a large part of my life, I have let logic work its magic, forgetting to factor in the human component of everything. The last month or so has been full of lessons and growing for me. I have learned that we are not robots. We are humans. We make mistakes and have emotions and occasionally act irrationally when we are scared.
Like humans, pets are the same. I have never had a perfect pet. Taipan the horse had a habit of going crazy every time I got on to ride him. He was far too smart for his own good, and knew the exactly when his buck would knock me off of his back. Zippaddee the hamster would always escape from his cage and make a mess of wood shavings everywhere. He was also the first pet to break my heart, by dying when I was only five years old. Eddie and Freddie, lovely birds they were, would never shut up at night. Eddie always nipped at your fingers, and Freddie would go flying off the bird swing and slam his head into the cage. But despite their flaws, their quirks, and the annoyance they caused, I loved every single one of them. If I was able to love a crazy sadistic horse, be patient with a Houdini hamster, and sing along with birds that kept me up all night, there is no reason I should expect myself to be a perfect pet.
I guess what I have come to realise, is that I do not need to be perfect to be pleasing. In fact, perfect can be quite boring. Quirks and flaws are part of my personality, and make me who I am. It was foolish to even think that I should fix everything about me that I thought was “wrong.” I am a pet, and I come as a package deal. There will be good moments, even great moments; but there will also be mistakes and a time for correction and even perhaps punishment. Pets are not perfect; and it’s high time I remembered that.

NB: I was originally going to write about my entire weekend in one post; but it seems that I am a talented rambler. Therefore, this post is going to be split into two or three parts.
- Being pet – Part I: Nobody’s Perfect.
- Being pet – Part II: Woof Woof!
- Being pet – Part III: In So Deep

pet,
thank you for sharing, as always I appreciate when I am permitted a brief glance into your thoughts.
I genuinely feel bad that you felt any level of guilt for I do not believe it is your place to be concerned, to worry yourself with what I am feeling, I hold that level of responsibility on Master just as I hold all responsibility on me when Master is not happy with an exchange I am participating in.
That evening was a perfect example of both me and Master not being perfect and although it was unpleasant for the moment, with forgiveness on both our parts and a long conversation to share feelings, we worked through it and moved forward.
I accepted a very long time ago that I would not be the definition of perfect; however, I am perfectly me.
I am not surprised by your feelings regarding when Master hugs you. In fact it makes sense as Master has been far more open, more accepting of all that has transpired than I have and that has come out in my hugs, in my physical expressions. I would like to think though that as time passes and I become more comfortable touching you and you become more secure in the knowledge that I will not just “up and end things” that my hugs will hold the same level of safety, of security that you feel Master’s do. (And not that you ask for it but I want you to know I am not upset by your words, I just wanted you to know I can understand your feelings.)
I look forward to the second and or third part pet.

Our appologies for this comment…but it has to be said…So many red flags are going up the flagpole here. We are not trying to start anything….but as educators and as people who have seen this exact same thing before wanted to say something!
We are an experienced poly couple. We teach and perform all over the country. She is submissive to me and we are more of a Dom/Domme couple to all girls in our house. We enjoy reading you blog…we had a very successful sex blog until a few weeks ago (long story custody battle with an ex.) So that is our background.
We read this blog and are very concerned. It is quite obvious your couple is NOT on the same page. They are not communicating and if they are he does not seem to care about his Miss and her feelings. The fact he went ahead and ordered you to orally pleasure him is fine…IF SHE is on-board with it. This is why a poly relationship fails. Lack of communication, a lack of self control and/or a lack of respecting boundaries all will destroy things.
His actions/thoughts were either not communicated with her or he pushed past the set limits and did it anyway. Either way she deserved to be pissed. OR if they were discussed and she still got pissed, then they are not in a stable enough relationship to have a third…It looks as if they are not ready, either way, to have the “challenges” of a third with them.
YOU did nothing wrong. You obeyed, you served as you were told…You should not feel guilty at all. you were doing as told. shame on them for putting YOU in the middle! His actions seemed selfish and certainly not in line with Miss. That is so important for all of you that they are on the same page. She seemed to take care of you when she woke…and not be upset with you which is cool, but even you knew deep inside she was not going to be OK with this beforehand but followed orders and and knew she was upset after she was awake…then he lied to you telling you she was ok…when she was not. This is NOT a healthy relationship. You are walking on eggshells, worried, feeling guilty. The energy was negative, you knew it, he lied to you. That is not fair to you!!!! What else is a lie then is what wee think?
We hope you work past this…well we hope THEY work past this as this is not good for you…no wonder you have anxiety and fears. Poly can be a wonderful thing, but not like this!
maybe we read this all wrong…we hope so. But there is just too much at stake for you not to say something. Good luck and great writing!!!!
Miss,
I know that it is not my job to feel guilty or take care of you; but I don’t think I can help it. But in any case, please don’t feel bad that I felt guilty. It was just a small bump in the road.
I am sure that in time, I will get the same feeling of safety and security from your touch, as I do Sir’s. It’s all about going slow and steady, right?
G&j,
First off, thank you for following my blog and being honest about your opinions. I appreciate your comments and that you are concerned for us. I do not think you should ever apologize for voicing your opinions.
I would not say that the relationship I have with Sir and Miss is entirely poly; and this is most certainly not a case of Sir not caring for Miss. Miss is the only woman that Sir is in love with. He cares for her a great deal; but I think he sometimes does not pick up on when she is upset. In this case, me sucking his cock was not a huge deal for him, and he did not know that it would be a big deal for her. They simply had a small communication rut; which happens to everyone. Miss told me later that this little mishap was truly minor, and that they had worked things out the morning after.
I do not think for a second that Sir intentionally lied about Miss’s feelings. To be fair, she had just woken up from a nap; and anyone would be cranky being woken from sleep. I think he simply misinterpreted her being ticked off as her being cranky, groggy, and tired.
We have already worked past this, as the following two days I spent with them went rather smoothly. Everybody makes mistakes; even the dominants. I think it is unfair to them to get up and leave at the first little mistake that happens; just as it would be harsh for them to stop playing with me at the first mistake I make.
Thanks again for your comment. I appreciate the honesty and I welcome you to share your opinion whenever you see fit; even if it is not a “happy” one =)
Sir intentionally made a decision as to what the long-term impact of my decision had been on my slave. I was well aware that my slave, at that point in time, was upset and not happy with my decision. However in the greater context she was OK and she was tired as well. That is all pet needed to know as it is neither her place to help with the relationship nor worry about it.
This is not a poly-amorous relationship and I find it most important that anyone who reads these entries understands that.
My understanding of OK is also very different from what other people perceive it to be. I knew that I would address this “issue” and that it would be resolved in a manner we all could be happy with.
What I am more than appalled at is that a couple who actually educates others is so quick to call someone they do not know a liar. That is neither professional, nor smart. Furthermore you have to understand that this is a Master/slave relationship. I sometimes choose to make decision which are not completely consensual as to when I want to push a limit or not. IN the end this was a minor lapse in communication and not really worth discussing much further.
Pardon me for saying so, but isn’t it the attitude g&j displayed the shallow mindedness we as a lifestlye community have been fighting to rise above? I am bothered by their unwarranted and unasked for harsh opinion.
Hi Tina,
As I said in my reply to G&j, all opinions are welcome. I did not like that they accused Sir of lying to me because he did not; however I would rather people make comments and learn from other peoples’ replies to the comments than to be quietly “shallow-minded.”
Yes, their opinion may have been harsh, and I am sorry that you are bothered by it; but I think part of “rising above” is to not let the pessimists bother you. It is important to note that their comment was no unasked for, as this comment box is open for anyone to share their views on the activities I discuss on this blog.
I certainly understand, but it bothered me for someone to be so judgemental with only having some reading as a background and not personal inetraction.
I should add I was very aroused at your accounts of your pet weekend. I want a pet.
Hi again Tina,
I understand how it would bother you, but I hope you are okay now.
It was most certainly a very awesome weekend =D
