Ever since Tyler was about 15 months old and could really move on his own, he discovered the joy of having a pet. It used to be that he would crawl up to the cat (Puck)and she would run off, usually jumping over a baby gate to get away from him. However, as he has grown, he has gotten a lot smarter about how he interacts with Puck. He now "plays" with her (note the green martian in front of the cat on the couch). This weekend, he asked to give "Baby Kitty Puck-Puck" (as he calls her) some treats. He sat on the floor in the kitchen and watched as she ate them up. At night, he seeks her out to give her a kiss-- such a sweet sight to see! Last weekend, cat hunting was a sport in the Genovese household. Tyler and his friend Olivia went searching over three floors to find the cat. Us adults didn't mind, the kids were entertained. So in a way, not only has she turned out to be a great playmate, but also a wonderful babysitter!

I love his name for Puck! That is so cute. Maybe we should get a cat.... :)
I love Puck's expression with the martian sitting in front of her. That's so sweet that Tyler's taken such an interest in her. What a good-hearted boy!
