When Mommy Says "No" to a Puppy

Cameron is now the proud owner of two catepillars, named Twiggy and Joey. After finding the catepillars roaming our yard, clearly in need of a home, he sprang into action. Dashing inside, he grabbed a Tupperware container to convert into a lavish catepillar mansion. Furnished with grass and twigs, the abode features a skylight and floor-to-ceiling windows. The catepillars were noted to excitedly (some might say frantically) explore every inch of their new home. Cameron has also provided the duo with plenty of attention and opportunity for socialization, as shown here. Apparently exhausted from their adventures, Twiggy and Joey were later noted to rest for a long period of time, occcasionally giving a listless wiggle. Although we suggested, several times, that Twiggy and Joey might be happier in our yard, he is certain that they wish to remain with him. Furthermore, he relays that the pair are interested in coming to school with him on Tuesday. I'm not certain, but this seems to me to be analagous to me stating that I wish to visit Mars in 2152. Perhaps the catepillars have more stamina than I assume.
