LOL talking cats... I have to tell you about our talking sheep...
We used to raise purebred Shropshire sheep and when I was in college, my sister decided she wanted to show them like I used to do. So, they were at Timmonium (Maryland State Fair) and my mother was helping my sister. My mother was crouched down behind one sheep who was on a fitting stand and she was carding and trimming the wool so you had a nice smooth blocky fleece. Anyway as she was working there a little red-headed freckled boy came up and started talking to the sheep - he said “Hey sheep - I’m going punch you in the nose - how would you like that!” My mother couldn’t resist and replied - “Nnnoottt verrrrrry wwellll” kind of imitating a sheep sound. The kid took off running calling his mother and yelling “I found a sheep that can talk” His mother came back with him.
My mother felt kind of bad for ‘fleecing’ the kid into thinking the sheep had talked. So she explained to the mother that it was she and not the sheep that had spoken to her son. The mother replied - “I thought it was strange that HE found a talking sheep.” Not strange that a sheep would be talking but definitely strange that her son would be the one to find one. People!!!

That sounds like Doug Brown, when he was about 4 or 5, I had spent several years getting a crop of lemons on my Myers lemon tree, they are small and grow well in pots, so were outside my door getting sun.
Doug thought they were just the right size for throwing, so he picked them, and then I drove in and he threw them over the top of the car at me.
OK, that I could understand, but then he came around the car and checked to see if he had hit me..........
Your boy at the fair, was a meanie, who as his mother well knew, would never get talked to by anyone.
