We had a black and white tuxedo cat, the spot of white on the chest and then the tip of his tail was also white. One of his favorite things was to sit on the edge of the bathtub and watch with great interest while DD age two was getting nightly bath. DD (a most quick and active child!!) reached up and hauled him in and I swear that is the only time I have ever seen a cat go straight up!! He let out a howl, went straight up in the air, tore out of the bathroom and wasn't seen for a couple hours. This poor animal is also the one that I caught DD with a black magic marker coloring his tail "..because, Mommy, it's almost Halloween and I want Kitty to be an all black cat!" Fortunately, Kitty didn't get sick trying to lick the magic marker out of his fur but he sure didn't like it!
