Mckayla easily gets distracted by MeiMei when we’re eating dinner at home. MeiMei’s always begging by our feet and tapping my legs when we’re eating. And Mckayla sees MeiMei by our seats, would stretch out her arms and try to reach and pet MeiMei. Last few days, we noticed Mckayala would reach out to MeiMei with food in her hands. Not sure if she’s intentionally passing the food to MeiMei or not. She usually reaches down but doesn’t open up her palms. Because MeiMei can smell the food in her palm, she licks Mckayla’s hands and that makes Mckayla giggle.
This afternoon, I gave Mckayla a piece of french baguette to gnaw on while I wash dishes from her late lunch. I didn’t pay too much attention to MeiMei because she was sleeping under the dinner table. Then I heard Ted asking, “did you gave Mckayla and MeiMei bread?”. When I looked, both Mckayla and MeiMei were eating the bread. Apparently, Mckayla dropped her bread on the ground while she was busy “reading” her books. And when there’s food on the ground, MeiMei claims every piece of it. And when Mckayla saw MeiMei picking up her bread, she pulled it away from MeiMei. So we’re pretty sure the piece Mckayla reclaimed was once in MeiMei’s mouth. Yuck!
