It was a grumpy animal and while Reno figured it was only a few years old at most, it was definitely having trouble adjusting to being a house cat and not an alley cat. At least he'd done a good deed by bringing the thing in from the rain. It actually looked clean now, rather than grimy.

Glancing at Tseng, Reno smiled yet it was a rather empty, bitter smile, compared to the usual happy expression he wore. "Oh yeah? How am I supposed to do that, huh? It's hard to tell if I've got his attention at the best of times."
