How to Breed Kappas
On his way home, a young man approaches a pet store and, on a whim, buys a kappa he sees in the display. He names the creature Kaatan and brings him home. Because he has never owned a kappa before, he primarily relies on a book he bought about raising and training kappa. The book offers various helpful suggestions for raising a smart and well-behaved kappa, and everything looks fairly straightforward. Unfortunately, putting these strategies into action and really getting them to work is more difficult than the book makes it seem. Kaatan initially appears to grasp concepts, but he frequently either forgets what he has learned or shows little desire in doing so. But this particular young man has a lot of patience, so he persists in trying to raise Kaatan into a pet he can be proud of, despite the possibility that his efforts will be in vain.
