Squeak!

Last week, I went to the pet shop to deliver some fish. Talos came with me, she likes the outing, and I like the company. It was a lovely visit, the assistant was friendly, the fish were handled professionally, and I left feeling pretty ok with the world.

About half way home, I hear it.

"Squeak!"

and again...

"Squeak squeak!"

I know the squeaks of Talos's toys pretty well. This was not a familiar squeak. But ... I didn't buy any toys either.

Turns out, Talos is now not only mangy, but a thief as well!

...shake my head...

Serves me right for taking my eyes off her!

(I went back the next day and paid for it)

Here's the little thief enjoying her spoils.
