the kitten chronicles - part 123

The caped crusader is miserable. You would be too if you had to walk around all day with a bright blue dental bib on. Rooney pretends it's not there but clearly it is affecting his morale. Plus the bib/cape is turning him into a contortionist in his attempts to reach his nether regions. He's twisting into a pretzel on the living room floor every night. And his brother just glares at him "Idiot, that thing is meant to prevent you from licking back there!" Rufus is not without some sympathy though. Sometimes he will walk over and lick Rooney head in a comforting "there, there" manner to show feline solidarity. But mainly it's a whole lot of Rooney doing the worm dance on the hardwood. The blue does coordinate very nicely with his black and white fur, though. And when he does drool he's covered. 5 more days - you can do it Rooney!!!! xxx dad
