Cat Falls in Love

I am cold, even on summer nights. So I always put a hot water bottle in my bed. Last night I put the bottle on the bed, and went down the hall to get a magazine to read. When I came back, Mitzi had fallen in love with the hot water bottle.

Here she discovered the bottle and sat on it.

Then she looked at me, saying "Mom, please let me keep the bottle!"

Before I knew it, she was hugging the bottle.

And finally, she held on to it with such delight, that I decided she could keep it!

I fear that now we will fight over the bottle every night.
