High Drama

Tonight, when the human got home, she counted cats while performing various and sundry important tasks: Angel, Cloud, Buddy - check - put the mail down - check - Cyrrie, check - spot empty bowls, fill them - check - Lucy's in the hallway - check - Petunnia's in the computer room - check - circle back to the kitchen, and there's Bansh, drinking - check - but where is AreToo? Circle back to the vestibule, and there, in the dark, howling (but sotto voce) was the missing baby. When the door was opened - no, wait, mind you, all of this took 8 - 10 min! Max!! When the door was opened, AreToo raced to the bathroom, jumped into the litter box, and very melodramatically peed. Right. Not buying it, said the cynical human!!!
