My cat and my mother have turned more kittenlike.
It's true. Both are definitely too old to be so frisky, but they persist in gamboling about the house with their frivolous fancies. Micia especially craves attention, but Mom does her share: it's like they're both aware that this is the only life they're going to get, and they're trying very hard to be as ridiculous as possible, now that they've spent so much time being safe.
