One less cat

I couldn't find one of our kittens. It had been missing all day. They stay outside so I didn't worry about it too much. When the boys came home from school I told them to go look for Spice. A few minutes later, Ridge and his buddy Morgan came in the house and told me they found Spice laying in the neighbors yard (where a cat eating dog named Crockett lives.) It didn't take long to do the, "what happened to the kitten " math.
I told Ridge to go get the kitten so we could burry it. Here's where it get's crazy.
While Ridge was looking for a shovel, Brock went to look at the kitten. Well, he had his friend Conner and his friends' dog with him. The dog is a newfoundland, Ramsees, also a cat eater. Needless to say the dog got to the kitten before Brock. Brock wasn't going to let Ramsees have the cat. He grabbed Ramsees by the collar to try to stop him, and yelled for Ridge and Morgan to come help. Brock is now being pulled down the road by Ramsees and Ridge and Morgan are running after, Ridge with a shovel and Morgan with a broom. They went down the Road through the intersection and down another road before Brock let go. They didn't come home with the kitten and I didn't dare ask any further questions. Lots of lessons were learned by all today.
The biggest one dogs eat cats. Caleb still can't figure out why the y just can't get along. Try talking a 3 year old through that one.

Life's tough, thank goodness we're not all cats!
