Familiar Guide: Babysitting Edition

To take care of a toddler.

So you've been left home alone with your master's spawn. Perhaps you've forgotten an ingredient or she went out for a drink to cope with you consistent incompetence. Either way it's your soul bound duty to care for your witch's young. This might seem like an impossible feat for such a creature or your furry stature. But with your four paws, fluffy tail, and button nose you're going to get through the weary mother's time away. After all you are able to read this manual because you're a magical familiar.

Let's start with the basics.

All curled up cozy in your half Jack O' Lantern bed when all of the sudden you hear a noise. A whine, a cry, something much bigger than a mouse coming from the next room. The only other thing in the house stirring is you. So reluctantly you get up to check the crib. Clawed toes gripped tight to the ledge, careful not to get too close because baby paws also like to grip things. Like ears and fuzzy tails. Now sniff the air to determine any foreign or foul smells that could be coming from the infant's rear end, causing them distress. If the air is clear then the case may be that they have woken up hungry. Now don't panic. Until your master returns, there is a simple solution that only requires a bottle and a pour. Just like you, babies also enjoy refreshing, chilled milk.

Step two is to make your way to the kitchen.

When in the fridge careful to inspect every bottle top with your sensitive nose. Because it will be the last thing you do if you give the baby something that will send him into permanent repose.

But oh, no. Just when you think you've found the right milky colored bottle. The top of this one has a foul stink. To your dismay, the milk is spoiled. Fortunately you have this guide to help you along the way.
