Kitty

'Kitty' is Ollie's first repeatable/recognizable word. It is not surprising considering we have 6 cats - 5 real 1 ceramic. It doesn't sound quite like Kitty though, it's a bit more like Diddy. It's close, but we know he isn't talking about Puff Daddy.

We are constantly telling him to 'be nice to the kitty', 'pet the kitty nice', 'don't hit the kitty' and 'give kitty a kiss'. He gets a bit excited when he tries to pet them. He ends up smacking them. He's gotten bitten and growled at a few times. No damage though, just scared. One of the cats will get in a fight with him with her front claws. She eventually gives up and leaves. Too bad they all aren't that smart.

Every time he sees a cat, he calls out 'kitty' and tries to reach the cat. The cat skulks backward from him or gets on top of furniture out of his reach. Eventually, they won't be able to get away from him. They will be in trouble then.
