Why I Need a Flip Camera, by Big Kitty

If you love me, you will buy me this. I'm just sayin'...

Because words won't do justice to this story. My neighbor dropped by with his baby on an ingredient finding mission. We discussed the bookshelf installation, and went through the contents of the wine fridge. Champagne in hand, we started talking about how excited Baby was by my cats.

I told him that when I babysat her, she just loved them, and they were really great about being poked in the eyes, and having ears and fur pulled. And, he gave me a look of scorn. So, I borrowed the baby and showed him.

I rested her on my knee and got down to the floor. Grumpy waddled over and started purring, and Baby immediately lunged for him. He leaned in for a long and generous head rub. She responded by poking him in the eye and grabbing the fur on the top of his head. And, my sweet kitty slowly lowered himself out of her reach, cocked his head, purred and looked at her like, "You pet stupid. THIS is how you pet a kitty," and leaned in for more lovin'.

We did this about 5 times before I got sick of holding her. Baby and Grumpy were in a groove and could have kept it up all night.
