Two posts in one day? You are not hallucinating. Sit back and enjoy reading about the doughnut and Sassy Kat. I created a card project from this story for Freshly Made Sketches #377 card challenge (the sketch is below):
I know everyone has heard the phrase, “curiosity kills the cat,” but have you ever heard, “only a doughnut can make a kitty happy?” I hadn’t heard that phrase either until I read this story.
Little Sassy Kat was known to be a snoopy busy-body. There was no place in her house she had not explored except for the box under her owner’s bed. She didn’t know what could be in it, but it always smelled so good.
Every night after the house became still and quiet, she noticed, while pretending to nap on the bed, her owner would lie down on her belly and reach far under the bed pulling the box out very carefully. Once the box full of heavenly aromas was tight in her owner’s arms, she would walk softly into the very large walk-in closet, shut the door and the click of the lock would faintly sound.
Of course, the lock clicking to the closet door would cause Sassy Kat to lift her head, look around the room, rise up stretching every muscle before jumping from the bed onto the floor. She would wind her way around the room letting her tail hug every bed post spindle until she was at the closet door.
She pressed her body against the door and tried to push herself in, to no avail. She even tried to open the door by pushing her paw under the door and pulling the door towards her. That didn’t work either. After a while of unsuccessfully opening the door, she stretched out on the floor waiting for the door to open.
She was just about asleep when she heard little foot steps running down the hallway, into the room and a little voice crying for mommy. The closet door clicked open and her owner scooped the child into her arms and carried him back to bed.
What!!!!! The door was open; Sassy Kat couldn’t miss this opportunity. She quickly ran into the closet and saw the open box in the corner. She ran over and gently sniffed inside the box. It smelled so good! And, a round circle with a hole in it, covered in pink goo with dots smelled the best. She grabbed the tasty treat in her mouth and ran out of the closet into the bedroom.
She quickly ran beside the night stand and settled in for a midnight snack. Before she could get a good bite of the sugary goodness, she noticed two large feet in front of her. She looked up with big soulful eyes, asking for forgiveness as her owner reached down picked her up and said, no sweet treats for you Sassy Kat. It’s time for bed.
Hope you enjoyed the short story. Here is the card for the story and the challenge.
