We had an interesting dark walk last night. We got to the Sacramento
yard around 10 PM and did a kitten walk as soon as arrived. We walked
all around the yard, and when we walked along the south fence Harri
was fascinated by the sounds of frogs - lots of frogs - coming from
the
field next door. Since she wasn't having any luck figuring out how to
get over or under the fence I picked her up and carried her out
through the gate and over to the edge of the field. As we walked I
warned her
that where you find frogs you generally find lots of water as well,
but she didn't pay a lot of attention to what I was telling her

We reached the field and I set her down to explore. She led us off
down the edge of the field until we were directly opposite where she
had stopped to listen. She then led us into the field. We came to a
large puddle of water, and Harri was a bit frustrated. She would
stick a front paw into the water, pull it out and shake it off, then
try with the
other paw. She finally stepped daintily into the water and got all
four feet wet then returned to the dry land. Finally she decided that
if she dashed across, maybe it wouldn't be too bad - she readied
herself then made a quick dash for the other side.

Her resolve faltered as the water got a little deeper. When the water
reached her tummy her resolve disappeared entirely. She attempted to
pirouette without touching the water (and almost succeeded, I swear!),
