conversations with millie #7

Millie: Look, Mommy! (showing a handful of cat food)

Mommy: Oh, Millie, can you put that back in the kitty bowl, please?

Millie: But no! Because these are treats, and I'm going to make Ziggy do a trick, and give him a treat when he jumps!

Mommy: (trying not to crack up) Well, kitties don't really do tricks like doggies do.

Millie: (pointing to Ziggy) But look, Mommy! He sits! Ziggy - jump!! . . . . . Hmmm. He didn't.
