Crime And Punishment

Last night at Target.

"Mommy, so kitty can't have babies now?"

"Nope, he is fixed."

"What is that?"

Awkward attempt at age-appropriateness, "Well, they do an operation on his boy parts to make sure ... "

I am interrupted with a tone of sheer horror, "YOU TOOK HIM TO THE VET SO THEY COULD CUT OFF KITTY'S PENIS!!!!!

More thoughtful, "Was it because he is always on the kitchen counters eating our leftovers?"

We're currently debating the issue of Buddy's er, bits - well spherical objects as my nephew graphically said using only one word in a horrified tone of voice at the very thought of them and Bud parting company!!!! :D

I love Halloween because we have a life size but small skeleton we put up. I always tell my son that it was our last little boy that didn't pick up his Lego.

Sounds like you handled it well. We have similar stuff happen--makes us want to stay home 24-7.

Swung back over to re-read this and give myself a little lift!

In Otis' case, if only fixing him had been enough to stop his eating food off the counters -- or stealing it straight out of my daughter's hands. (Sadly, her fingers were involved; Otis is not particularly delicate when opportunity knocks on his door. I don't know who was howling more loudly, my daughter in pain or my dog in frustration from the pizza-that-was-almost-his.)

Hahahahahahaha! Every once in a while the universe gives us Moms a freebie. That was awesome.
