Cat Prayers

As Ella is observing Molly sleeping at the foot of my bed.

Ella: "Mommy? Why are Molly's paws all folded like that?"
Me: "I don't know, sweetie. She's just sleeping."
Ella: "Is she praying?"
Me: "Sure!! She can pray if she wants to."
Ella: "She probably should. She's a naughty kitty." Strokes Molly's head. "Molly, say your cat prayers!!"

A little while later:
Ella: "Mommy? If Molly says cat prayers, what does she ask for?"
Me: "Whatever she needs."
Ella: "I bet she asked for Daddy to clean her box. You asked him 3 times today and he hasn't."
Me: "At this point, I think that's what it's going to take!!"
Ella: "Maybe I should pray for it too!!"
Me: "Good idea sweetie."
