Kitten of the Mountain

Playful kittens attempt the game “King of the Mountain” on a pile of siding boards:

Golden (left) and Cale begin the warfare.

Golden goes on offense, then quickly deserts Cale to begin his climb.

GOLDEN: “Oh, Cale. What’s holding you back?”

CALE: “Golden, c’mon. Give your li’l sis another chance… C’mon… That was too fast.”

GOLDEN: “Hmm… Well, it is kinda lonely up here…”

Back down Golden goes, and Cale dances around him.

Then, Cale deftly gives Golden her best move: fake flop and cry;

fierce and startling spit; and

the over-your-head leap upward;

and to the top!

CALE: “Haha! Now who is ‘Kitten of the Mountain’?”

GOLDEN: “Okay, Cale. That was clever. Draw?”

CALE: “Sure, Golden. You’re my bestie!”
