Caleb didn't seem like he wanted to talked. Sure, he smiled and waved, but he said nothing before getting back to taking care of his animal. That kind of wounded Kate a little, but she decided not to think about it too much. After all, they were both here for a certain reason, and that reason was to care for their griffin. Seeing him begin feeding his griffin, Kate decided to do the same. First, though, she should clean the griffin and wrap him in a warm blanket. She thought he'd like his meal better if he was clean and warm. Never mind the fact that he was about to eat a messy meal of raw meat.

"So did you ever find your rat?" she asked Caleb, opening her mouth to speak before she remembered he hadn't seemed like he wanted to talk. As she waited for an answer to her question, Kate grabbed a nearby blanket that had been hanging up near Chad's cage. She guessed the professor put it there or something. "Oh right--cleaning first," she told Chad. She re-hung the blanket then grabbed a bottle of shampoo and a cleaning brush. "Aguamenti!" she said, wetting the griffin. She then lathered the soap onto its body and began giving it a bath.

When she was done, she rinsed off its body and returned the shampoo and brush. "You clean up good," she told it.
