I thought cats were supposed to be independent and not needing anyone for anything. So where do the demand for petting come in? If you're that independent shouldn't you be above needing others to pet you? (Also, that bite left punctures, that's damn adamant about petting.)

I don't see the point in dying an animal. Seriously, do you see baby chicks and Maltese dogs and cats trying to dye us stupid colors? Or, you know, those of us not already colored anyway.

Well I know that scientists use dye to track birds that they're trying to study and use it to learn about how feathers mature. Still doesn't make it completely right. But they're scientists and they know what they're doing. Not people who decide they want their pet to be pink for show.

Yeah, but it serves an actual purpose when the scientists do it and I doubt they're trying to Easter egg-ify the bird, you know? People who dye their pets are probably the same people who carry them around in their purses. They should all be shot on principle.

It doesn't sit well with me but shooting them might be too far.

Google tells me that this woman in Boulder was fined for dying her dog pink. And all those dogs look so sad.

Put them on an island and then blow it up? Use them for the testing of nuclear weapons and/or biological weapons? Experimentation with cross-species organ implantation?

I'd be damn sad if someone dyed me pink, too. Well, I'd end up purple but that's not the point. No offense to pink people everywhere, but pink is not the color I'd want to be. I'd be pretty unhappy if you dyed me yellow, too. And aren't dogs colorblind anyway? All they'd know is you were torturing them and then cooing.

Um. I didn't mean it like that. They seem a little too severe. Maybe?

Being pink isn't so bad. Really. I guess when you're born with it you adjust? I'm quite a nice shade from sitting out all summer.

Dogs are colorblind I believe, but they would be able to smell the dye? Dye smells bad (even the non-toxic stuff).

We could try brainwashing or lobotomies instead if you'd like.

You were born pink? God, that's got to be loads better than just suddenly turning pink out of nowhere one day. Having your eyes turn red randomly? Not the most fun I've ever had.

Scent torture!

Those might not be good ideas either?

Well a lot babies are born pink, I just stayed that way? It was kinda out of nowhere in a way. I guess I'm used to it, can't imagine not being pink, or changing colors.

You're shooting holes in all my grand ideas here, kid.

I've changed colors. It comes with copying someone else's body, you get their color too. It's not so bad, really, especially when you can go back to your own color. Though that's only really true after you're used to the new color being your color. Until then it sucks.

I'm sorry. I just can't support violence.

That makes sense. Because it's in their genetic makeup. What else do you absorb? If I may ask?

I can. I'd make a crap self-defense teeacher otherwise. And technically brain washing isn't violent, per se.

If they're a mutant I can absorb powers and I copy psi-thingies, what the hell do they keep calling them? Thought patterns, basically. Not thoughts but the way you think and assemble information. Powers and thought patterns take time to absorb though. A physical copy is quick and easy to get.

Catseye thinks GrowlyBlueWoman is a lovely shade of blue!!! Mrrrrow!

Why thank you, Kitten. You're a lovely shade of lavender.

I don't growl when I'm coherent, for the record. Um, at least I don't think I do.

Catseye is NOT A KITTEN! If GrowlyBlueWoman calls Catseye a kitten one more time Catseye will BITE!

Catseye already bit. There's nothing wrong with being a kitten. Adrienne's a cupcake. Unless you want to be a sugarcube you're going to be kitten. You'll just have to live with it, love.

Catseye is going to bite WrongNamesWoman! Kittens are Silly! Catseye is not a Kitten!

Alright, sugarcube, have it your way.
