Tears

Approach

During an otherwise uneventful visit to the Nature Sanctuary, the girls were approached by a crocodile.

Tears

It seemed to be weeping crocodile tears…

Crocodile

…though Opal and Agathe weren’t sure whether the tears were genuine…

Paw

…until it showed them a poor injured foot.

Chai

They fortified their new friend with chai and doughnuts and then made plans to smuggle it into the Hitty cupboard.

Oh, he’s nice! I do hope he turns out to be good natured. Will there be enough room if he does make it to the Hitty Cupboard?

  I don’t know much about his temperament and I think it might be a tight squeeze to get him into the cupboard, but we’ll have to see.

I hope that their new “friend” doesn’t view Hittys as a nice light snack.

  Crocodiles are apex predators, but I don’t think wood is part of their normal diet. However, just to avoid confusion, I think they might want to take off their cat hoodies…

Unless the Hitty Cupboard is a lot bigger than I imagine, he is going to have difficulty going unnoticed…

  The Hitty cupboard is actually rather small, but he might be a very quiet crocodile?

LOL… I also wondered if there is any possibility of their new friend going unnoticed…. ahem….. good luck on this one, Block Sisters!

  I admire Opal and Agathe for their everlastingly optimistic view of the world!

I’d love to be comforted by chai and doughnuts…do you think the wooden sisters could come and comfort those of us in need? Very sweet episode.

  I wish we could go out for Chai and doughnuts together, and I hereby promise that if you and any of the Muttersholtz Hittys do visit Victoria, we will! Possibly without the Crocodile though.

perhaps the BLock sisters will prevail upon their human to mend the boo boo and then release their friend into the wild. I am not at all certain that Crocodiles make very good companions….

  I am not at all certain either, but I think Crocodiles roaming around in BC might be a bad idea too.

Poor crocodile! I hope they can help dry his tears and mend his wound

  Yes, the crocodile seems to have a legitimate reason to cry, I am sure the Hittys will do what they can to sort him out.
