Menefer's First Adventure
You ever wake up in a place that you've never been before? I sure have. Let me start from the beginning. I woke up in a cat's basket. Now I know what you're thinking. Aren't you a little big for cat baskets? I would've said the same thing, it's just that this was a life size cat basket. When I got up, I discovered I had fur, a muzzle, pointy ears, really good eyesight and hearing, and four legs. I was untroubled by the fact that I was a cat right now because I wanted to figure out where I was.
I found that I was in a large room, with one of those Cat Castle thingies, a scratcher, and a ball on a spring thingy that I was quite interested in for the next five minutes, until I heard footsteps down the hall. I quickly hid behind the door, to run from my captor. When the door opened, there stood a Cat Lady. I know what you're thinking here too. Isn't a cat lady a creepy old lady with like⦠thirty cats as friends? No. This was literally a cat lady. She had leapoard skin pants, a fur vest, and some really yellowish eyes. I wondered if I had yellow eyes, too.
I didn't stop to think about that because as soon as the walked three feet into the room I walked out the door, curious. I wasn't exactly sure where I was going, but because I was hungry I followed the smell of Friskies, which smelled surprisingly good. When I reached the kitchen-of-sorts I heard Cat Lady following me. I turned around to see her cornering me. When I thought she would attack me she did something out of the ordinary. She grabbed me by the scruff of the neck, and carried me back to the room I just came from. She was a cat too, now, and I guess I must've been a kitten because she was so big compared to me. As she walked, I tried to protest, but all that came out was a Mroww! She ignored this, and dropped me in my basket again. I guess I wanted to be stubborn that day, because as soon as she dropped me off, I ran right out the door.
This time, I followed the my instincts. I ended up in a living room, as cat houses go. There were cat structures everywhere, and a few windup mice littered the floors. The thing that really gave me awe was that fluffy thing on the ceiling. I had to have it. I climbed, jumped, and struggled my way to the highest playhouse.
I jumped, and caught the feather thingy with my teeth. Bad part was that it didn't fall down with my weight, so I just sat there for a few minutes trying to figure out what not to do to kill myself. I had just gotten a solution when I saw the Cat Lady, frantic when she saw me.
She turned back into a person, and rushed to my aide, which, quite frankly, I didn't need. She picked me up, and said, "Bad girl, don't do that, Menefer, bad kitten." In return, I bit her, aggrivated and somewhat hungry. She looked me straight in the eye, and said "No biting." I just bit her again. She didn't seem mad, but set me down on the floor of the kitchen. I decided not to run, because I didn't want her to get mad, because I imagine her mad and I shiver.
Anyways, afterward, she got a can of Purina Kitten Chow, popped it open and put it in a bowl, and set it in front of me. Before she could move her hand, I bit her again. I was laughing my butt off inside, so I hoped she couldn't read minds. After I bit her, she said again, "No biting, Menefer. That's not nice." And so I ate in response. Then I decided to be stubborn again and explore the house. She was turned around, taking my dish to the big sink and I took the oppurtunity to leave.
The next room I found myself in was a room full of the most delicious snack ever: catnip! I had gotten through quite a bit of it before I started hiccuping. I had the oddest urge to fly right then and there, so I headed back to the living room. I climbed atop a high playset and was about to jump when I saw a windup mouse moving across the floor. I was torn between flying or getting the mouse so I settled on flying and landing on the mouse. I carefully aimed my flight, and leapt. That day I learned a lesson in gravity. I didn't exactly go as far as I needed to get the mouse. In fact I only went about halfway. I landed allright, but I as I landed one of my paws twisted. I meowed in pain, and quickly got up.
I heard Cat Lady coming, and I tried to hide. I almost was at a safe spot, but she saw me limping when I was only an inch away from the dark box. She rushed to my aide again- which this time I was a bit more grateful for. She scooped me up and inspected my injured paw. It was twisted at an awful angle. I hadn't realized how high of a jump I had taken until I peered up at the ledge I was just on. "You need to stop running away, Menefer."She said quietly. Cat Lady took me back to my room and said a really weird word, I think it was masa al kheyr. I didn't have time to ask because I fell immediately asleep after that phrase.
