ELDERLY CAT TEACHES KITTEN TO USE STAIRS. PRETENDS HE WAS GOING THAT WAY ANYWAY.

The household’s oldest cat spent the morning taking one low stair at a time, pausing whenever the kitten needed another demonstrashun. He maintained that this was his usual speed and an entirely coinsidental route.

At the first step, he turned back to inspect something apparently fascinating on the carpet. At the second, he developed a sudden intrest in the wall. The kitten caught up on both occashuns.

When they reached the little landing, she pressed against his shoulder. He looked away with great dignitee. Then she went back down, and he discovered he had forgotten something at the bottom.

Fiction & satire. These cats and their scandals are invented.
