A young, tiny otter walked on the grass in the early morning alone. It was very early, so no one was awake yet, not even the kitchen workers, or at least that's what the otter thought.

Lois awoke as the sun began to dry the dew on her back. She had chosen to sleep out in the grounds rather than in the dormitories because it had been such a fine night. She stretched and yawned which for a large female badger amounted to a small growl. Then she looked around hoping she hadn't frightened anybeast.

Juan sighed quietly and attempted to climb into a small tree, only managing to make it into the lower branches since he was an otter instead of a squirrel. He stared up at the sky, completely lost in thought. He jumped slightly as a growl like yawn sounded nearby. He looked around curiously and saw Lois, the badgermum which made him tilt his head curiously.

Lois had seen him as well and she smiled. "Hello little one," she said kindly. "I hope I didn't frighten you." She walked closer to the tree. The lower branches were just about at eye level for her so she was able to speak right to him. "Have you decided to be a squirrel today?"

"Climbin's fun sometimes isn't it?" The badger whispered to him conspiratorially. "I could give you a boost if you like." And I'll be right here to catch you if you fall, she finished silently to herself. Lois was proud of the little dibbuns when they attempted new challenges. She just wished they could always attempt them in the presence of a responsible adult and not try to get away with things behind her back that would result in their or some other beast's harm.

Juan nodded excitedly and stood up carefully. Me wantsa try to go alla way to the tippy tops. It didn't seem very high up to him, especially since he was secretly very fond of sneaking up onto the walltops.

Lois reached up with her paw and pushed the dibbun otter up to the next branch. "Up to the tippy top with you then. Just make sure you only do this when there's a big creature around to watch you, little one."

The little otter nodded understandingly and climbed onward confidently. Me wills, Lois. Me promises. He hesitated at a branch that was slightly out of his reach for a moment, but jumped up and managed to grab it so he kept climbing.

Lois looked on, a little nervous but proud all the same, as any mother would be. You have to let them go sometime, she thought. "You're doing wonderfully, Juan. Be careful now. The branches are getting thinner towards the top." She stayed right beneath him arms outstretched ready to lend a paw should he need it.

Juan climbed on carefully, using only strong branches which he found by testing them before putting his full weight on them. A few minutes later he was sitting on the topmost branch, his tail wagging back and forth happily.

"Very good, Juan. You made it all the way to the tippy top. I bet you can see the whole grounds from way up there. Can you tell me what you see?" She encouraged him but still kept a close eye on his every move.

"Well then you best come down right quick or I'll take all the scones with blackberry jam and meadowcream before you get them," She teased, still ready to reach out and grab him out of thin air if need be.

Juan giggled happily as he started his careful descent from the tree. He used the same method going down a he did going up, testing every branch before putting his full weight on it.
