"TUG!" Mistofelees had to yell over their three walling kittens' voices.
"YES?" Tugger yelled back. He had "kitten night duty" and hadn't slept well in months. Misto put it like this:
"I carried them for 9 months. I was tortured for 3 hours giving birth.* Could you at least let me have peaceful nights?"
Which the Rum Tum Tugger admitted was all true. So, he agreed without arguing.
But now, they where so active, the day/night deal didn't work, so both of them ended up caring for the kits at the same time, day and night.
"TUG! LET'S NEVER AGAIN HAVE MORE KITTENS!"
"DEAL!"
