Everyone has heard the expression, “Let sleeping dogs lie.” Today, we explain in pictures why that is such a truism.

He is so innocent while sleeping.

Hu-Dad walked by the window and saw this peaceful, innocent image of Typhoon napping away. Ever the photographer, Hu-Dad grabbed the camera and, “Click.”

Are you taking my picture?

Hu-Dad has awakened the sleeping beast. All Typhoon wants to do is stretch and yawn, so no harm can come from that, right?

Really, Hu-Dad? Does this look like an innocent stretch?

And thus the game of “He’s touching me” has begun. Did you expect any less?

Not quite the same innocent face.
