Daud doesn't deign that with a verbal response, focusing instead on the laborious (but oh so adorable, if he was the type to be moved by a pair of big eyes set in soft fur) task of extricating the kittens that have latched onto Billie patiently and repeating the treatment until she's cat-free ... presuming any bolder felines haven't tried to get friendly in the meantime. As usual, it will be up to Billie to actually talk.
