Christmas Grump

Biscuits, Wingnut and Shadybear opened their Christmas presents when I got home this evening. They each got a Kitty from the "Terrible Nasty Scaries" series of dog toys. They are adorable, colorful, canvas kitties named "Dirty Rotten Kitty, Awful Mad Kitty and Big Mean Kitty." They each came with their own story and after they opened their Kitty-Gifts, we had story time and I read aloud each Kitty's story. My 3 girls listened with rapt attention throughout and it was an enjoyable time had by all.

However, ever since story time ended, Shadybear has been an insufferable Grump. Below, you will see a series of pictures I took this evening. These pictures depict Shadybear grumbling, barking and growling at Biscuits and Wingnut because they are looking at Shadybear's Kitty. Mind you, neither of them will venture within 5 feet of Grumpy Shadybear right now, yet still she grumbles away.

I've given Shadybear numerous toys since she came home with me but she hasn't played with any of them until now. Apparently, "Dirty Rotten Kitty" has touched her heart and she feels as if she must guard him with her life. As of this writing, she is still grumbling. My big goofy girl.
