old habits

Really it’s been ages since Morcilla has done this and I had hoped that she’d grown out of it. But then all of a sudden there she was, racing up those curtains in a flash… it always kills me how, once she gets to the top, she does this look-around thing like “oops, now what?”. I don’t let her stay there feeling foolish. I go over and give her a “proper chastising” (with a kiss on the head) while disconnecting her claws and helping her come back down to earth. She ends up thinking she’s got away with something, and I melt in a puddle of love. Goodness this little girl has completely stolen my heart.
