Dump trucks and cats

My mom recently sent me some pictures of Ajax when he spent the weekend out at the farm and I just had to share.  My mom explained that their good friends, Mary and Jeff, gave Ajax a large power wheel in the shape of a dump truck.  My parent’s said he absolutely loved it and went exploring all over the place.

One of his favorite adventures, however, involved a new barn kitten my parents got.  A very friendly kitten (I mean ridiculously laid back kitty).  Ajax played with this cat for over a half hour.  He would pick it up and carry it to his truck and plop it into the bed and then try to drive off.  As soon as he hit the gas, however, the cat would leap from the truck.   Ajax would then dutifully go and retrieve the cat and bring it back to the truck.   My mom said that the odd thing was, the cat never tried to run away from Ajax, but allowed him to carry the darn thing back and forth.  On top of that the dogs followed Ajax back and forth each time he went to get the cat.  My parents said it was the funniest thing to watch as Ajax really was very gentle with the cat.

yes, that cat is upside down.
