Dot!

Me, bummed: Hey Neighbor.

Neighbor: Hey Matt

Me: Thanks for making sure to tell me about Dip.

Neighbor: Awww man, that was sad as hell. Yo, but you see that new kitten runnin around?

Me: No actually

Neighbor: Yeah, it’s like, a tiny brown thing. Just the one, though. I ain’t seen it with its mama or any other kittens.

Me: Hmmmmmm

That evening…

Jilly: I MISS DIP

Me: Neighbor was telling me about a new baby kitten running around on its lonesom-

Jilly: WE’RE GOING ON A CAT HUNT RIGHT MEOW

Several minutes later…

Me: I found it! It just ran under that car. You get on that side and lure it out.

Jilly: Hiiiii sweet baaaaaayyyyybeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Me: Wow, it’s really trusting.

Tiny baby kitty: Hello humans, I’ve come to steal your collective hearts.

Us: Awwwwwww

Tiny baby kitty: And your food, please and thank you.

Us: AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

So we take the kitten back to my front porch and show it where it can get food. It immediately noms a good portion of what I’d put out before coming back to us.

Me: What do you think we should call him?

Jilly: Hmmmm. I think we should call you… Dot.

Me: Dip and Dot

Dot: Hey that’s cool

Dot: Y’all are gonna keep feeding me right?
