She's getting to be a teen-ager. She knows boys aren't allowed over, and so far we've had no problems with that. But. Is it time to start marking lines on the liquor bottles? Getting a v-chip for the teevee? I'm especially worried when re-runs of old 'Saturday Night Live' with 'Toonces, the Driving Cat'* are on. She's too young!!
I get home and it's all "brrp! brrp!" and then purring, but I have a feeling there's something going on that she's not telling me about.
With all the bad influences in the media -- even in family newspapers, it's "Look -- go eat lasagna, make fun of your person, hate the dog, and don't exercise" -- and have you ever really listened to Tom Jones? "So go and make up your cute little pussycat face!" One of these days I'm going to come home to mascara-enhanced whiskers, and it's going to break my heart.
Any tips for keeping a teen-ager on the straight and narrow?

Some things I forgot:
When we first met, she was living on the street, downtown. So, even though she's young, I'm sure she knows a few things.
She's getting spayed in a couple of weeks.
And, re. catnip: what really concerns me is that it seems to take more and more to get her high. Sigh. Kids!
