FUZZY TWIG FINDS A CAT

ONE DAY FUZZY TWIG WAS WALKING HOME FROM SCHOOL BY HERSELF. KNOBBY HAD SOCCER PRACTICE AFTER SCHOOL AND THORNY WAS WALKING HOME WITH HIS GIRL FRIEND BLOSSOM SNAPPY BRANCH.

FUZZY BECAME TIRED AND SHE SAT ON A LOG FOR A LITTLE REST. A YOUNG KITTY CAT JUMPED UP ON THE LOG BESIDE HER. THE KITTY CAT SEEMED TO LIKE HER AND SHE LIKED IT. SHE STROKED IT'S FUR.

THE KITTY CAT FOLLOWED HER HOME AND SHE ASKED HER MOTHER IF SHE COULD KEEP IT. LEAFY TWIG SAID IF THE OWNER OF THE KITTY CAT COULD BE FOUND SHE WOULD HAVE TO GIVE THE KITTY CAT BACK TO IT'S RIGHTFUL OWNER. FUZZY HOPED THE OWNER WOULD NEVER BE FOUND. SHE DECIDED TO NAME THE KITTY CAT MR. C.

AFTER SUPPER LEAFY WAS SITTING ON HER PORCH KNITTING A SWEATER. HER BALL OF YARN WAS ON THE GROUND. WHENEVER SHE PULLED THE YARN FOR SOME MORE STITCHES THE BALL WOULD JUMP AROUND. MR. C THOUGHT THE BALL OF YARN WAS A PLAY TOY AND SMACKED IT WITH HIS FRONT PAW EACH TIME IT JUMPED.

HE FINALLY ROLLED THE BALL OF YARN SO FAR IT COMPLETELY UNWOUND AND WAS ONLY A PIECE OF STRING LAYING ON THE GROUND.

LEAFY TWIG MADE FUZZY ROLL THE YARN INTO A BALL AGAIN. FUZZY LOOKED AT THE KITTY CAT AND SAID, "MR. C YOU ARE A BAD CAT!" BUT SHE DID NOT MEAN IT. SHE REALLY LOVED MR. C AND HIS OWNER WAS NEVER FOUND.
