*wake up wake up wake up*

"What is it Tomo?"

*sun's up - time to play*

Demitri pushed the curtain out of the way and could barely make out the first rays of sun.

*come play with the crunchy ball*

"Where did you get a crunchy ball."

*liz had lots.  she didn't notice when I took one.*

"Tomo," Demitri looked solemnly at his kitten, "stealing is wrong.  We have to go and tell Liz."

Demitri quickly pulled on some clothes and gathered the non-repentant kitten and the innocent crunchy  ball.  It wasn't until later that day that he noticed that the cats were talking to him with words now.
