They spent the rest of the afternoon basking in the sun, then returned when the sun hid behind the clouds. Mila was still full of energy, so Iris tried to teach her to change back.

But she had already used up all of the cat's patience. Lucy had demanded for Kyro to lift him up on a dresser which was too high for him to jump on with his lame leg and proceeded to ignore the disappointed weasel.
"I don't know what to do about her," Iris said to Kyro when Mila ran away from her for the fourth time. "She just doesn't want to listen."
"She's three years old and away from home, so of course she doesn't want to listen. We're not authority figures for her."
