Flynn: During recess, we’d have fun in the playground. I’d play on the wooden balance beam. It was four inches across. Sometimes it’s straight and other times it was slanted. I’d fall off many times. But each time I fell off this narrow path, I’d get back on track. I learned to take my time as if walking on a sharp sword’s edge. And then I’d practice going faster until I had the confidence that I wouldn’t fall off the edge.
Kitty: I know why you keep falling off! It’s not due to lack of practice. It’s because you humanz have only two legs! Plus, yours appears to be quite bow-legged. I’m sorry for your bad design. We felines, however, have four appendages with the fifth one being the tail, which we use for balancing. We’re not monkeys: Some use their tails for gripping. We also have sharp claws for better grip. If you can show me a playground with wooden beams, I’d like to scratch a post to trim my claws, please.
