The Game

Object: Get as many food bits as possible into the water bowl before you're discovered and scolded (and photographed and laughed at.)

Means: You may use only one paw at a time, but you may switch if a better angle presents itself.

Obstacles: If mom moves the bowls apart, even if by many feet paws, do what you must to push them across the floor so that they're touching.

Prize: Once he discovers the soggy bits, your big brother will "ask" for a fresh bowl of water and you will get to partake even though you've been caught. Not to mention the thrill of being naughty and the benefits of honing your fine-paw skills.
