Recently, Boo has been taking to calling Kayla the Cat "Catty." He used to call her "Yayla" or "Kitty." But now, he stubbornly refuses to say "kitty", and insists on calling her "Catty." I think it's because a dog is a doggie, a pup is a puppy, a pig is a piggie, etc, etc, and thus a cat must be a catty. Here is a typical conversation we've had recently about it:
Me: What's kind of animal is Kayla?
Boo: Catty.
Me: Why is she a Catty?
Boo: Cat. Meow.
Me: What kind of animal is Zoe?
Boo: Zo zo dog. Doggie.
Me: Well then what kind of animal is Kayla?
Boo: Cat. Catty.
Me: Boo, Kayla is a KITTY, not a CATTY. It's because a kitten is called a kitty- there's no such thing as a catty.
Boo (quizzical look): Yayla catty.
End of discussion.

Haha, can't argue with logic like that!!! G keeps saying "mines" so I correct her and say "mine?" and then she says "mines" points to me and says "yours"
makes perfect sense.
