I went to reply to you when Shadow came over to the computer, stood there and looked at me. Unspoken message: "It's time for my dinner Daddy, remember?"

First things first.

I've observed their little paws moving as they slept, with their eyes clearing darting all over the place under their eyelids like REM sleep in humans.
