Animal behaviour
Jun. 10th, 2009 09:45 pmUnder Milly's influence Max has reverted to kittenhood. However, having a 4 kilo (9 lb) 'kitten' thundering around the house isn't exactly restful...
Milly, however, has no concept whatsoever that she weighs almost exactly one quarter of what her brother weighs. But apart from the odd indignant squeak when he thumps on top of her a bit too enthusiastically she seems to be coping fine with the size differential. And when we gave Max some chicken at teatime she marched straight in and scoffed the lot, while Max sat next to her and watched. It's not clear whether he was (a)holding off from stunned disbelief at her audacity, (b) being a complete gentleman, or (c) finally learning his place in the grand scheme of things...
Really, it's better than TV :-)
