A baby, on the verge of toddlerdom, who is cute and cranky and full of mischief. A puppy, on the verge of sexual maturity, who is cute and ornery and up to no-good. What is the difference?
They both are teething. While one already has her teeth, the other is trying to get a full set. They put anything in their mouths. They both like rawhide. They both eat puppy food. They both eat kitty cat "hors d'oeuvres".....(Okay, the baby hasn't yet...but that doesn't mean she wouldn't but she can't). And....they both like their food on the floor rather than in their bowls.
They both like to hibernate in the bathroom. One sleeps in there. The other plays. They both like to drink out of the toilet...(Okay, the baby hasn't yet...but she has been caught staring down into the tank wondering what it would taste like). One likes to take a bath, the other would rather have every hair pulled out one by one. But yet, they both like to drink bath water. And they both smell so good after a good bath and washed hair.
They both poop and pee in the house....(Okay, one wears a diaper and the other does "it", if we don't pay attention to her "cues").
And....they both like to play in the trash. Both have been caught on many occasions sorting through it. Both sharing the duties of who gets what. One likes the "dirty" diapers and the other likes the empty bags of popcorn.
And they both like being "chased". They both like "hide-and-seek". And they both like to play "tug-o-war". And the cherry on top.......they both like to torment the cats. They bite the cats' tails, pull out hair, sit on them, and poke them in unwanted places, and generally, just look at them the wrong way. Hmm?
Are they related?
