“I love my mom, dad, and sister,” Buster said, entirely believing that he is mentally and physically the same as his family. “I guess we’re just a pretty normal family! Mom’s a doctor, dad stays at home most of the time but works part-time at the library, my older sister is just starting high school, and I mostly sleep around my house and play in my yard!”

“People always say I have dad’s eyes and mom’s smile,” Buster explained, firmly thinking he is biologically related to his human family. “I guess I see it, but I wish dad would’ve given me his height instead of his eyes! Just kidding dad, but I do wish I was tall like you. Then maybe I’d be better at basketball.”

At press time, Buster grabbed a blanket off the couch to curl up on the ground for a nap, just like any human is entitled to do.
