Poppy's not full grown yet, so she still has time to grow into her eyes and ears...I'm betting they will always be huge, though! If you adopted your cat later in life, she was maybe already nice and staid and cuddly and well and truly over the teenage hoodlum phase that Poppy is in...
Dean rules in the Pilot. There's so much subtle character work there that wasn't apparent on first viewing, but then when you go back and re-watch you see more and more every time. Going to Stanford to ask for Sam's help after so much time apart and Sam cutting all contact must have been so, so hard, but he does a good job in general of not letting it show. Even when Sam flat out refuses to help in any way. Heh, and he cracks onto Jessica so automatically, because she's hot, because he has an image to project, and because she's Sam's girlfriend. What kills me most, though, is the way he just switches her off with his very next breath.
Kinda makes you wonder what Jessica made of him, no? Yep, she's clearly used to having guys come on to her. I kinda think she sees immediately that he's doing it to tease Sam more than anything else, by the way she rolls her eyes. But I can't see Dean making a good impression on her in that brief meeting. He tends not to make a good first impression with many people at all, really, which is probably the point of all that defensive posturing. Keeps everyone at arm's length, which protects both him and them.
