When I was over at ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ancalime8301's changing the water for the kitties in the kitchen, I overheard Maia reciting something in the living room to Abby, who commented upon what Maia said. I've recorded it below. Abby's commentary is in brackets.
First, the reciter:
Dear Mom,
We hasten to remind you [Oh, hasten to remind is good!] that in but a few short years, your adorable kitten [They call them babies, Maia! Duh!] baby human nephew shall be a sullen and angry teenager who will barely speak to you or any member of your family. We, on the other hand, [Ooo, I like that transition!] shall remain adorable, furry, purring [Put that in caps, Maia; they can't purr, so it's worth emphasizing] PURRING, and easy to carry in your arms for the rest of our lives. [Or on your shoulders, purring in your ear]
This human![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
lavendertook you have appointed to check in on us does a serviceably good job, but she smells [Reeks! OMG!] of other cats, such that we question her moral character. There's no telling how many cats she's hanging out with. [Seriously] It's shameful. [Totally] We thought you should know. [Definitely]
We also want you to know that we are doing our utmost to resist puking on the furniture [It's really hard], but we can't be expected to hold out for long. [Sooooo true] Do hurry home. We miss you. [I want my Mom!]
Purrs, licks, and headbutts,
Maia & Abby
