Fay opened his eyes and yawned, his tiny kitten fangs making a rare appearance, before shaking his head to rid himself of sleep.
He pointed his little pink nose into the air and sniffed once, twice. His ears flicked and his whiskers twitched and he yawned again, this time stretching his front paws forward.
Now fully awake, he got out of his basket, tripping on the edge that he was still too small to fully clear, and bounded off down the hallway, pushing the door at the end open with his nose.
The human who had taken him in was big and scary-looking, and sometimes Fay got the idea that he didn't like cats at all. After a few days though, the big scary doggy, as Fay liked to call him, had gotten used to Fay's furry presence.
The human was sleeping, his large arm hanging over the side of the bed. Fay scuttled up to it and pawed it, mewing softly. The human didn't respond, so Fay nudged it with his nose, licking one of the fingers after. The hand twitched and the human made a noise that Fay couldn't really describe before his entire body shifted and red eyes stared at the small kitten.
Fay mewed again as the human's sleepy hand scooped him up and deposited him onto the human's large, warm chest. Fay instantly started purring and pawing the black, worn nightshirt until the human growled at him. Fay crawled up far enough to be able to lick and nuzzle the human's chin before settling himself down, his soft purring sending them both back to sleep.
