"I got you...
...a cheetah!" Gina pulled out a tiny cheetah.
"A, uh, what?" Rebbecca asked.
"A cheetah!" Gina shoved the little animal into Rebbecca's arms.
"What? Uh, thanks?" Rebbecca looked into the huge eyes of the baby cheetah. "Oh, she's SO cute! You are too cute you little, uh, little...Buma! Oh! I just named you, cutie!" Rebbecca cradled Buma.
"Here. You can feed her this bottle of warm milk. She needs to learn to trust you, feeding wise." Gina handed over a baby bottle filled with warm, thick milk. Rebbecca teased Buma with the bottle of milk to try to get her to eat it. Buma patted the bottle with her paw a little then started to suck and pull on the bottle's nipple.
"A baby cheetah. What will Kandy think?" Rebbecca mumbled.
"What was that? Whose Kandy? Is she nice? Where does she live? Is she your friend?"Rebbecca smiled silently while Gina chattered and the old car's engine went BUMA! BUMA! BUMA!
