Mr. Mochi has had free roam of the house for most of today because the house is finally kitty safe and he is engaging in the Grand Cat Tradition of “RACE THROUGH THE HOUSE AT MACH 5 CAREENING HAPAZARDLY AROUND CORNERS” but he keeps forgetting where Charlie is and every time he comes around the couch he remembers that The Dog Exists and tries to brake suddenly on the hardwood floor, fails, and then takes an Evasive Four Foot Vertical Leap to change directions in midair.

Charlie, meanwhile, is trying very hard to be firendly to Mochi but only kind of knows cat manners, so hes trying to play as best he remembers, which mostly involves gently batting your friend, but he is a decently sized dog that’s been interacting with humans for most of his brief life and scales his gestures thusly-

Which is an extremly overwrought way of saying my dog just smacked the cat out of midair and halfway across the living room.  

Nobody’s hurt and Charlie is very sorry, but Mochi is now glaring at him from the stairs and refuses to come down no matter how many toys Charlie piles at the bottom of the stairs.
