What Daddy and Cats Have in Common

I recommend taking your own tiger and monkey to the zoo,
in case the ones that live there permanently are not being entertaining.

The twins are reaching that age where it is possible to have full conversations with them. Pair their budding conversation skills with their emerging two year-old logic and you get gems like this:

Julia: Kitty cat have whiskas?
Mommy: Yes, kitty cats have whiskers. Do snakes have whiskers?
Both: Nooooooooo!  (This is obviously a silly statement that Mommy has made.)
Mommy: But doggies have whiskers.
Matthew (agrees): Doggie have whiska.
Mommy:  Do you know who else has whiskers? Daddy has whiskers in his beard!
(long pause as their gears turn, and they absorb what I have said.)
Matthew (uncertain): Daddy... is... a... kitty cat?
Mommy: No, Daddy is not a kitty cat!  But Daddy has whiskers!
Matthew (more sure of himself than he has ever been): Daddy is a kitty cat.

I almost explain to them that if Daddy had been born with the flexibility of the cat, he would be able to clean his own genitals with his tongue.  Given the implications of having this lauded ability, I have serious doubts  that the twins would ever have been born.  Or any of our children, for that matter. I could be wrong.

Big kitty cats have whiskers, too.
