Baby Nabysko - I didn't know, but somehow, I think maybe she did

It was not my intent to do this. I was looking for a very specific picture with Nabysko and Thunder Paws when I happened upon this image of Nabysko as a newborn, fresh out of her mother's womb, barely cleaned up and placed upon Sunflower's chest.

I was so touched that, even though it is off-topic and even though there will be those who drop in expecting to see new cat pictures who will be so outraged at me for disappointing them that they will throw their coffee cups through their computer screens, I decided to run this, instead.

We had no cats at this time. We did have a dog. I did not think that I liked cats. As previously explained, I even erroneously believed myself to be a cat despiser.

Somehow, absurd as it sounds, I think Nabysko already knew that she was a cat person and so was her misguided dad. I suspect that is why she is screaming like this. "Dad! Dad!" she is trying to exclaim, "you brought me home to house with no cats! Dad! Dad! This is wrong! There are supposed to be cats here.

"Go get a cat right now, or I will poop my pants."

And she did, too. I just didn't understand the full import.
