Balmy

Oh, Big Brother Apollo, the balmy breeze feels so good on my fur and the Birdie dialogue is much easier to hear with the window open.

A little black kitten and a large tuxedo cat sit looking out an open window.

I agree, Little Neo. Let’s hope the Humans don’t crank up the AC and close our window.

The Humans and the Woofies don’t appreciate the heat the way we Cats do.

Yours

Your water? Whatever do you mean, Human Mommy?

According to the teachings of my Spiritual Father, Darth Vader, everything in the homestead belongs to me, by right, as the reigning House Panther.

A lanky black kitten stands on a coffee table, poised to take a sip of water out of a pink crystal glass.

You can keep the coffee, though. I really don’t understand what you Humans see in that dreadful smelling beverage.
