Kittens

Colin surprised me this morning when he got up on the table and began to sing this urgent parable of kitten cold war. It was.. most illuminating... I had no idea what was happening on the front lines of the utility room. I mean, I knew that Trixie sometimes gets a little confused about certain instinctual behavorisms, but... damn!

sung to the tune of "Russians" by Sting:

In Europe and America, there's a growing stink like ammonia
Exposed to everyone this nasty smell
In the sandboxes of the ne'er-do-wells
Mrs. Trixie said I won't bury poo
I don't subscribe to this exposed 'doo
It would be such a p'stinky thing to do
If the Kittens love their clean air too

How can I save my little nose from Trixie's most deadly pose
There is no magical cover-up
When I start to retch I will throw up
We share the same biology
Regardless of hygiene-o-logy
Believe me when I say to you
I hope the Kittens love clean air too

We share the same biology
Regardless of hygiene-o-logy
Believe me when I say to you
I hope the Kittens love clean air too

He won't stop singing it either! Actually, it's more of a caterwaul. Get it? CAT-erwaul?
