“Spike? There’s a cat in your armchair.”
“That is correct, Slayer.”
“Let me rephrase that. Why is there a cat in your armchair?”
“I can’t make her move from there! And I tried. I’ve got scratches all over my arms to prove it.”
“And how did she get there?”
“I found her outside.”
“So you just brought her in?”
“She was mewling desperately! What else could I do?”
“Uh, leave her where she was.”
“Buffy, that’s just cruel!”
“Spike. We agreed when we had to leave Tenderloin: no more cats.”
“Cat. Singular.”
“And just one feline away from turning plural.”
“You’ve got killer math skills, pet.”
“Spike, she can’t stay.”
“But she already has a name.”
“You named her?”
“Her name’s Hissy.”
“What kind of stupid name is that?”
“She kept hissing at me!”
“You named your cat after her attitude?”
“She bloody well earned it. And it’s our cat.”
“I don’t think so. You brought her in, she’s all yours.”
“We’re married, luv. And California law states that what’s mine is yours.”
“We are married. And you adopted a cat without consulting me!”
“I’ll clean the litter box.”
“Damn right you will. And if she ruins anything, she’s out.”
