Julie heard the door to the bathroom shift and she peeked out of the shower, her ears wet as she looked at Mao. The poor thing looked so pitiful and sad standing in the bathroom watching her. "Oh Mao...Sweetie, are you lonely?" she said softly, her tail reaching out from behind her and pulling the other side of the shower curtain open. "Come on...you're dirty anyway...I saw some fur all natted up earlier..." she said softly as she let the curtain from her paw fall, but left the other held open by her tail. Julie would give Mao a nice shower, and then brush the girls fur, make sure she looked nice and prim for Jason.<br/><br/>When Mao got in, the first thing Julie did was squirt some soap on her. "This is shower time, Mao...not playtime.." she said with a gentle giggle. "We want you to look gorgeous and adorable for Jason, don't we..." she purred, leaning over and nuzzling the girl lightly on the side of the neck. Julie smoothed the soap threw Mao's fur, making suds and foaming soap all over her. "This will make you smell wonderful too!"
