Miscommunication

I took the cats to the vet today. Corin helped me load them up.

On the way to school, he was talking about Preta and how she died. He understood that I was taking them to the vet.

On the way home, he asked about the cats. I told him they were at home.

"Are they alive?"

I could do nothing other that sit in silence. Finally, I managed to say, "Yes. Why?"

He went on about Preta going to the vet and being dead and that I took the cats to the vet. I was flabbergasted.

Once we got home, he got really excited every time he saw a cat. He keeps telling Ryanne that all of the cats are alive.

I really think he thought I was going to have all of our cats euthanized today. I don't know if that's more disturbing or the fact that he didn't seem terribly upset by it.
