Here's Tatiana reading a story to Wasabi last night. Tatiana got the book from the Morgan Hill library, which is almost walking distance from home here. I forget the name of the book, but according to Tatiana, it is the story of a young girl who goes swimming and discovers she has become a mermaid (apparently when she can't get her jeans back on).
Later yesterday evening, I fell asleep watching Tatiana decorate her igloo in a rousing session of Club Penguin. Once I was safely snoring, she and Wasabi crept off to the bathroom and Tatiana showed the kitten how to become a mercat.
Tatiana told me this morning that Wasabi fell unaided into the toilet, but I wonder if he was pushed, or more subtly influenced by the story she read to him.
Poor soggy kitten.
How can there be bad kittens? I look around at the shredded piles of toilet paper and I see only good kittens who sometimes do bad things. That said, it is pretty hard to shake the sense that Tangerine is truly a bad, bad kitten pretending at occasional goodness -- what's with all the glowing demon-eyes in the photos!!
