Kevin with his arms wrapped around our cat Ginger giving him what amounted to a big bear hug. When I said, "Aww, is Kevin hugging kitty cat?" Kevin flashed a great big grin. At that point, there was never a happier little boy. To Ginger's credit, he was taking it well. He sat perfectly still and let Kevin squeeze him. I did walk over to make sure things didn't take an ugly turn. Kevin let go and then grabbed Ginger's tail and neck. Ginger, again to his credit, took it like a man and sat there patiently. I scratched Ginger's ear and got him to purr and said "OOooh, Kevin, kittycat is purring. He likes you."
This made Kevin bounce. Bouncing = true happiness for our Kevin.
Where was Jason you ask? Riding his pony into town, headed to the saloon for a birch beer. He watched the whole thing from the pony...not very impressed based on his expression.
