My Pumpkin Story

A little bird wanted me to write a little story about my cat, Pumpkin. So, I will do the best I can to achieve this....

Once upon a time (too corny maybe?), there was a lazy (albeit) wise cat named Pumpkin. Now, he is deemed wise because of his adventures with past lifetimes. His first life was spent wandering through aimless streets and houses with no identity to his name. He knew that somebody took care of him, because he was declawed and neutered (now kids, go ask your parents if you don't understand what this is). Yet, he knew that there wasn't a real home for him.

One day, he wandered to a house that looked promising, because of the amazing number of tenants living there. He discovered that this house owned five cats! He was about to be inducted into a new group and friends, and was overjoyed to find playmates. He came to find out the owner was named Sue, and was willing to share her food with him as well as her four children. Yet, as things soon came to pass, the cats did not share his enthusiasm. He was continually made fun of, called nasty names to his face, pulled and tugged by the youngest child, and worst of all, beat up because he was the "outsider". He was just trying to fit in and find his own way when the cats wanted to hurt him maliciously. Just when he felt that his days were numbered, and life was not worth living with these fascist kitties, he found himself in a box taken to another world...

He found himself living another life in a home with a woman named Shelley and her incredibly intelligent, popular daughter (place name here, children.) Shelley welcomed Pumpkin in with open arms and a smile on her face. She was pleased to find that he needed two litter boxes, because of his many fights with the other cats he has not been able to use the litter box in one place. She also noted that he needed hairball medicine, as he was becoming sick with this infectious disease. He could not help it that his coat was so thick. And soon, he came to live with this family with care and ease, and realized that constant sleeping, laughing at birds, and extra water around the house was a cat's paradise. The End.
