Playful Kitty Excerpt:

Clouds covered the blue sky and the sun with a soft grey. The blanket of fluffy clouds quieted the world a little. Since everyone in the family was focused on their favorite hobbies Grubby, the little Siamese kitty, hopped onto the couch for a little nap. He circled and snuggled into his cozy quilt. The warm blanket gave Grubby a hug and he relaxed. A loud purr filled the room, as Grubby shared his happiness.

Then the little kitty heard something. Grubby stopped purring. His ears searched for the source of the sound. It was coming from the door! Grubby opened his eyes and sprang off the couch as the doorknob turned. The blue- eyed cat’s tail twitched with excitement. “Who was coming in?” Grubby wondered.
