Kitty Trouble

This is Noah. Cute, isn't he? But cute little Noah can unknowingly get you into trouble.

Rule #1: Never refer to a cat as a pussycat or pussy around kids, even if you think it's funny. That's what my friends L and J did, with their daughters S, age 6, and V, age 2. Next thing you know, S says, "There's pussy hairs all over the bed!" and even worse, possibly after playing on the bed, "There's pussy hairs in my mouth!" Do not utter these words at school, dear children, or mommy will answer the door to a lady with a big DSS badge on her jacket and take you away from your family. C-A-T spells CAT, not pussy!
