My friends Virginia and Mark have a kitten named Grader. He was found by the side of the road and rescued by the driver of a road grader. Like many cats, he has some unique personality quirks.
Grader loves Virginia's old teddy bear that she's had for years and keeps on her bed. When "Teddy" started disappearing from the bed and showing up in other rooms recently, she blamed other household members, who protested they had nothing to do with it. However, Teddy's disappearances soon were solved when Grader was caught in the act. He was seen dragging the bear in his mouth, despite being slightly outsized by the stuffed toy.
Now, to prevent losing Teddy at bedtime, Virginia devised a solution: How many teddy bears do you know that are collared and leashed to the bed? (Wish I had a picture of that!)
