For all those people who are slaves to their cats!

In the evening after I get home from work, I take my cats (Mama & Son) for a walk - yeah, like some people walk their dogs, but without a leash. I jangle my keys and they follow me.
We go once around the castle and go back home. One the other side of the castle is this little bridge over a stream to the watermill, and the Mama Kitty, Mohrle was sitting on the outside of the iron fence in the middle of the bridge. She was dangerously close to the edge - but I know cats can balance well.
But suddenly she decided she wanted to jump from the middle of the bridge on the outside of the railing to the side wall of the stream channel under the bridge made of sandstone.
She jumped and missed, and PLONK! She fell into the flowing stream! I nearly had a heart attack because she disappeared like a stone. To top it off she is black! But a moment later the little head re-appeared and she swam upstream against the flow to climb up the bank.
Man was that a scare! I thought I would have to jump in the stream to save her! I didn't know that cats could swim so well.
Here is a picture of my cats in the castle gardens:

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
Zenobia has gotten herself into her share of trouble even though she walks on a leash! They'll get into all KINDS of things. Once walking INSIDE our apartment building she decided to jump between the rails from one stair case to the other. Didn't work that well, she crashed, but she wasn't hurt doing it. This time. Seems to have learned her lesson though.
