the kitten chronicles - part 69

"Don't go chasin' waterfalls", sang the late Lisa Left Eye Lopes. I never really understood what that meant, but the song was catchy as all get out. The boys are only too happy to go chasin' waterfalls, on the other hand. Ah, the simple things that keep them and their little furry brains delighted! Last night, Bee just turned on the tap and let it run in the kitchen sink- this was major league fascinating for the lads. Rooney was brave enough to stick his head right under and drink and drink and drink. Free water! What a concept! Roo-face was more guarded, he stuck his paw under and licked it - "you're right, brother - it is free water!" Forget about expensive cat toys we have a faucet. Bee wants to get them a kitty fountain. Frankly, we've already got little cat footprints over every surface in the house -could it get any worse? Naaaaah.If we ever have a break-in, the detectives will have an impossible job finding the "perp's" fingerprints - they'll come to the conclusion that it's the work of a cat home invasion gang. And that's what the boys truly are. They just haven't tied me up and duck-taped me to a chair.Yet. They're planning it - as soon as they figure how to turn the tap on by themselves. xxx dad
