I feel like the fly even saw the kitten and was like "ok, I'll give them a chance."

u/Sxilla 1d ago

Haha I thought the same, the fly was so forgiving. It was like “Aw it’s okay, try again.”

u/TheMouseIsBack 1d ago

Right?! It didn't even fly away. I bet it giggled a little bit, but in an endearing way.

u/ihoptdk 1d ago

Aww, so cute. My cat loved “buggies” when she was little. We lived near a swamp so we had tons. I’d have to hold her up to the overhead light so she could try to get them. Until she put on 12 pounds.
