( Does she actually know the gender of the cat? Of course not, she's just defaulting to masculine because of linguistics, and because she doesn't want to call it it. In all reality, she wouldn't be able to tell even if someone paid her.
They spend a few minutes like this, until it probably begins to become clear that if Laura had her way she would spend too much time making friends with a single cat, and they wouldn't have enough left to venture out to meet any of the other animals.
There's something faintly regretful in her expression as she gives it one last pet, murmuring a soft adios, lindo gatito. There is a very strong chance she will come back looking for this kitten in the very near future, and an equally strong one that if she finds it she may smuggle it up to her room. )
