It was an amusing plaything while it was alive and struggling, enticing the kitten-like cub with its desperate movement, but now that it was dead, his interest waned. That was just as well, because his side was aching and begged that he lie down and rest for a while.

It would be a while before the fizzling of his tongue calmed enough for him to drift off. During that time, he quietly watched his mother, though now and again his eyelids drooped, signalling that he would soon be out of commission for a little while.
