We have a little Siamese and he's a wonderful little fellow. This child was really lucky Supercat was there - faster than a speeding bullet, not quite as powerful as a locomotive, but he got the job done.

He even acted interested in what the baby had found on the floor to keep it distracted.

This took place in China, where babies are often left in precarious places while parents work. When I was there, I saw babies roaming around construction sites and firework factories where an American OSHA inspector would die of shock from seeing how dangerous it is. Chinese think Americans are bad parents for using diapers, so there are some cultural differences.
