Cat vs. baby

In case you haven't been able to tell yet, I'm catching up on my blogging today!

I think Scarlet now truly understands that Elizabeth is a much more significant threat to her than the dog. Lyra ignores Scarlet; Elizabeth's mission in life seems to be to touch the cat (and stick any portion of the cat in her mouth, if at all possible).

The humorous thing is that the baby and Scarlet seem to be interested in the exact same things, so they naturally gravitate toward each other. David has found that he can keep them both entertained for hours with a single cat toy:



And, now that Elizabeth can move, most of her energy is spent trying to catch Scarlet.





Scarlet is not amused:



We are struck by the similarities between the recent power struggle that has been taking place in Aunt Beth's household. Unfortunately for Scarlet, getting rid of Elizabeth is not an option. Unfortunately for Elizabeth, I'm afraid Scarlet will teach her the hard way that psycho kitties are not necessarily good playthings.
