I’m catch­ing Dolly up on the kitchen coun­ters lately. She’s never had the gall to do so before. Nick’s the­ory is that she was really bored and knew she was alone dur­ing the Christmas hol­i­days, so she just jumped up one day and learned that it’s pos­si­ble. She knows that she’s not sup­posed to because as soon as she hears one of us walk­ing to the kitchen, she’ll jump down to the floor and give us the hon­est kitty look. The one where she stands at atten­tion with the big eyes, head slightly tilted to one side. Yeah. She’s an evil kitty.
