The Toilet Affair

One IDEA, three SOLUTIONS

When Ms Minicat saw the water bees were collecting, she had a great idea!

She thought that the orange crab would stop whining and complaining if he got cleaned up.

She could help him get clean up if she brought the hose and hold it for him so he could take a shower.

Ms Minicat tail added to Ms Minicat's thought, that the hose, could be useful also to clean his hole in the ground.

One day, when Ms Minicat was baking 11 cookies for a picnic and used the hose from the sink to clean the baking pan.

What a great idea thought Ms Minicat! What an idea day!

But, even though Ms Minicat tried, she couldn't tell her idea to the crab because he wouldn't stop complaining even for one whole second.

But, at that moment, Ms Minicat had another great thought. She remembered that when you breath in and breath out you have to stop talking. So, she could tell him about her shower idea when he took a breath of air. But, this crab talked non stop. He would keep talking and taking and taking, like... if didn't breath! And that was very strange. Ms Minicat wondered if crabs had noses or if needed to breath at all. This crab seemed to not need to take a breath, he would just never stop whining and complaining, at all.

So Ms Minicat decided to interrupt him. She knew interrupting is not nice. But, she could not keep waiting anymore. She had to tell him her great shower idea. It was such a great solution for the stink. And also, for the whining and complaining. It was one solution that could solve all three problems at the same time.

So, Ms Minicat's tail decided to get the crab's attention. She moved in circles in front of the crab's eyes. And... amazingly the crab stopped whining. He looked at Ms Minicat with the eye that wasn't twitching. And Ms Minicat took the opportunity to say "Wait a minute, wait a minute, Mr Crab."

And she continued quickly "I can help you get all cleaned up and even clean your house hole completely! AND! I can do it right now!"

The crab listened quietly. But his left eye kept twitching. Then, he didn't say anything for one, two, three, four, five seconds!

Ms Minicat was curious about how the orange crab could have one eye twitching and the rest of his whole body not moving at all. She wondered if the left eye of the crab had a mind of its own like her own tail does.

Maybe in crabs, one eye can have a mind of its own.

Crabs are different than cats.

Abruptly the crab answered "Maybe... but I'm not done complaining. I love complaining. Complaining is MY favorite."

Ms Minicat's tail straighten up in the air like a black and white fluffy arrow.

Ms Minicat is the fluffiest cat in the neighborhood. She is a black and white square of fluffy fur. When Ms Minicat doesn't move at all, you don't know if she is a plush toy or a real cat. Specially, because Ms Minicat's eyes are like owls eyes. They are very sharp, and big. Sometimes, Mama wonders if Ms Minicat is really an owl that poses as cat.

And Mr Mundo Cat, Ms Minicat first and only cat friend in the whole entire world, wonders if Ms Minicat is an owl in disguise too, but he is pretty fluffy too and he doesn't like to think about owls very much.

And, in all this thinking about so much stuff... Ms Minicat and her tail forgot to insist about the shower and the orange crab started the whining and complaining again.

The crab didn't seem to like the idea. Ms Minicat's tail curled down around Ms Minicat like the calm before a storm.

Ms Minicat took a breath and she said very firmly "There is no whining in this house."

Then, Ms Minicat looked at her tail and asked "Do we like whining?" Her tailed nodded no. Then Ms Minicat looked at the orange crab and asked "We do not like whining Mr crab."

The stinky crab looked at Ms Minicat and kept whining like if an invisible whining ON button had been turned on.

Ms Minicat got up and walked around the crab looking to see if the crab actually had an ON/OFF whining button for real.

She had made the decision to stop the stink and the whining and complaining and didn't want to leave any options out. If the crab actually had an on/off button, it would be just perfect! She could turn him off. Give him a shower. Clean up his house. And then turn him back on.

She thought looking for the ON/OFF whining button was worth a try.

Did Ms Minicat find the ON/OFF switch?!

Did the crab ever stopped whining and complaining?

Did they become best friends forever?!
