When we last left Shoko she was shattered by the knowledge she has grey furs at the base of her tail. We tune in today to find Einstein’s reaction to Shoko’s devastating news about getting old. Kali on the other paw is rather enjoying Shoko’s turmoil. Payback time for all those sneak attacks and stolen treats.
What else could I do to cover my grey, Kali…something that’s cheap. I don’t have the money for a dye for just 2 inches on my tail. I know mom wouldn’t agree with it. Well, there is one other option that won’t cost anything. What is it Kali? Mom has felt pens for labelling food. I’ll bet she’d lend you her black one. Not a bad idea Kali. 
Mom would have to colour me….she has thumbs….we don’t. Mom can you colour me with your felt pen and cover the grey? Do you think this is such a good idea? What will happen when you go out in the snow or when your sister slops water on the floor and you decide to sit down? Cwap! I never thought of that. I guess the black would change the snow’s colour and make a black mark on the floor. 
It’s rude to laugh at my problem Kali! I can’t help it Shoko, you’re such a drama queen….jeepers! You know Einstein…….just talk to him and tell him about the grey furs. I’ll bet ya tonight’s dehydrated chicky treats he understands. I guess I have no choice. *sigh* 
I had mom write to Einstein and I was so worried but I received his e-mail so fast, I couldn’t believe it. This is the gist of the e-mail :
Shoko…..black
Kali…..orange
Mom…..olive green 
True love runs deep….

Don’t worry Dharth. Sometimes the “born on the streets” part of me comes to the front and I just can’t help myself. Do I fling kit lit around the bathroom? You’re looking at a master kit lit pitcher my friend. I love to throw the litter against the side of the bathtub…from a distance and watch the litter bounce and fly everywhere. The best time to do this is about 5am….mom hears it but is too tired to get up and give me heck.
Kali loves her treats. I found some treats that are awesome. It’s how mom got me in my race car, Island Paradise by Party Mix…mmmmmm good.

Like fairy dust eh? That sounds cool Dharth. A very creative idea fur sure. I make a pile of litter in the box…digging deep to get it all. You want to make this pile very close to or right beside the wall of the litter box. Take your time…no rush. This is why its best to dig for China at 5am…nobody wants to get up and send me packin’. After you have gotten the pile to come to a point on top…your work is done. All litter is making up your mountain. Be careful when you jump out as there is a great deal of kit lit on the floor and it hurts the paws when I jump on it. Maybe Ladymum will clean it up quicker than my mom.
