Homeschooling Gems: Cowtacat

in #funny7 years ago

In which our dear followers get a glimpse into the homeschool life with Opal, Ruby and Pearl (1).png

Opal and Ruby are having a discussion about what kind of Pokemon our black and white cat would be.

Ruby: Mama, what do you think Rose would be called if she were a Pokemon?

Me: Maybe Cowtacat?

Opal: That's perfect since her markings look like a cow! She could have some little horns too!

Ruby: And some udders that lasers come out of!

That's awesome! Ruby loves random cat facts and shares them with me all the time. I'll make sure she reads this.

Cats have 300 million neurons; dogs have about 160 million
