Ayla, Innocent Kitty, Bag Lady

AYLA:

I did a BAD THING! I tore the drapery sheers... I was jus clawin aroun at somethin, ya know? I didnt know they would break!

[Ayla, you were pulling on them with your claws to SEE if they would break.]

Well, um, I didnt EXPECT them ta break. An when they ripped, I saw I could hop in an outta the sheers. I like bein on the windowsill when those sheers are all closed tight.

[Ayla, they were left open at the center so that you could get on the windowsill whenever you wanted]

OK. OK, whadda ya want, that I admit I just wanted ta see them rip?

[Yes]

Then Im gonna go sit unner the bed!

[OK, then you wont see the pictures of you playing in the bag]

You haf pictures of me in the bag? Cool!

[And I won't let you show them if you hide under the bed]

ARGH! Um, OK... I wanna see the pictures of me playin inna bag! I hop ina box sometimes, but I LOVE bags.

Hey, Im a "bag lady". I haf so much fun wif this sturdy bag. I look inta it and butt-wiggle and pound in. Then I go out an stomp it flat. That makes it more of a challenge! Then I shove my noseie in the opening an push my way back in! It helps that there are toys inna bag!

I love stickin my head jus a little way out. See da pictures...




















I push the bag all ofer the Lifing Room! Not the empty charcoal baggie, though. The Big Thing dint think I could fit inta that, but I did. It took some pushin, but I got in. I wish I hadnt! I didnt suffer a whole aktual baff, but I got forcibully brushed fer an hour. AND wiped wif wet dishtowels fer as long.

That was "not good".

[Ayla, if you had licked all that charcoal dust off yourself, you would have gotten sick, if not poisoned]

Well, Im supposed ta lick myself clean. Its what we DO! I LIKE lickin myself clean!





[Its my job to protect you from things you don't understand that are bad for you. What if you had rolled in antifreeze?]

Whats that?

[Poison to kitties. Worse than eating chocolate]

Oh. Well how am I spossed ta know that?

[You aren't. That's why I am here. To protect you when I can and to get you to a friendly kitty doctor when I miss something]

Um, can we change the subject? Whats fer dinner?

[Friskies Mariner's Catch. One of your favorites]

Yippee! Now?

[Now]
