The Inconvenient Truth

It's now rather inconvenient for us to use the bin in the room

Because now that Pepper is back to his normal self,
he still remembers his darling cotton buds!

Thing is,
he is fiercely loyal to THE cotton bud,
and not just any cotton bud

There were two occasions
I caught him playing with a cotton bud
he got from the bin,
so I took a fresh one, labelled it,
and gave it to him

Moments later,
he lost the cotton bud
and when I saw him next,
he was playing with another cotton bud
he fished from the bin

I know because that cotton bud is not labelled

Ougwee explains that it is because he likes
SMELLY cotton buds
eww..

As a result we try to tie the plastic bag in the bin sometimes,
so that he can't get anything out
So whenever we need to use the bin
we have to untie, throw and tie
