Virtually every night this otherwise intelligent teen-ager very dedicated ballerina puts a blanket on the floor and starts stretching and exercising.
That lasts about ten second before the dog comes, sticking her nose in Caitlyn's face and wanting to be petted. Caitlyn patiently pushes away the dog with a foot or hand, whichever is closer :).
The cat then brings her a toy, wanting to play fetch. Caitlyn gamely gives the toy a toss.
The cat returns the toy, eager to play some more. The dog then realizes that the cat is receiving attention and becomes ever more determined to fit onto Caitlyn's lap. And push away the cat at the same time.
Caitlyn pets that cat and again pushes away the dog. We all reach a certain level of frustration.
Finally, Mom intervenes and the dog is put on a leash and held where she can not reach Caitlyn (who usually continues to play with the cat) until finally - success! An exercise!
You can see the pitiful head of the dog who is as far as the leash will let her go, still trying to join in the fun.
Poor girl. With all these distractions, it's a wonder she can do a split at all!
Just a typical night!
