Ah, gross! Nasty! Got a hairball! Pleh, pleh! Okay, moving on.

Gotta find Desmond's house. God dammit, I was just there, how'd I lose it?-Wait! Whoa, weird. Got a tail. Never had that before. Flick, flick, flick, flick. No, getting distracted again.

House! Yes, found it! Knew it was around here. Now to find a nice place to wait...Oh! Perfect! In the mailbox. Looks so warm and comfty. Climb up the post, wow, this is so easy with claws. Now get inside. Ah, I was right, it's so cozy. Just curl right up, I fit perfectly. Maybe I'll just rest here a bit...and...close my eyes a little...

Hiss! Stop poking mail in my face! This is my box, leave it alone you stupid mailman! I'll cut you! Ha, that's right, run away from my claws. Damn, love these things. So sharp and pointy.

Why is the sun so low, I wasn't napping that long. I was just...dozing.

Shit, there he is. Okay, play it cool. I've got this. Just waltz right over. Maybe meow a bit to get his attention. That's it...he's totally taking the bait...Yeah, Dessy boy, look at the cute kitty.

"Hey there, little guy. You lost?"

Oh, yeah~ Keep petting, that feels so good. Fuck, yes, right behind the ears! Crap, what are you doing to me, Des?

Aw, he's walking away. Are we going inside now? Perfect! So gullible. It's pretty cute, really. But seriously, you shouldn't just let random stray cats into your house. They could have rabies or some other disease-Ooooh, the couch is so comfortable. Might just take another nap-er, I mean, rest. Who am I kidding, I'll take a fucking nap if I want to.

"You look a little thin, want something to eat?"

Food? You have food? What kind? Yuck! Cat food? The hell is this...tuna? Really, Desmond? I have better taste than that. I'll just go hunting-Oh! Yeah, that sounds good. Hunting is fun. Later though, more important things to do now. Like bug you. Or...I guess I could just curl up on your lap. Don't mind you're eating, just don't spill anything on me.

Done already? Pity, I really didn't want to move. But the couch is a good replacement-Wait, no! Don't pick me up! Where are you taking me? No, not outside! I want to stay with you! Damn, and I was having so much fun. Guess I'll have to jump down and change back.

"What the-Alex?!"

Heh, that surprised him. Give him my devilish smirk, that should make it clear.

"I was hoping you'd let me hang around a little longer." A false pout.

"But-How!?" It's so cute when he's flabbergasted.

"Come on now, Des, I can shapeshift into people, are you really so surprised that I can turn into animals too?" A cock of the head and a small, bemused smile.

"What the hell, Alex? You snuck into my house house disguised as a cat!" Desmond was angry now. He doesn't mean it. Not really.

"How else was I suppose to get your attention?"

"You could have just asked me out on a date, ya creep."

Love it when he looks at me like that, all exasperated yet amused, means I've done my job well. I stare back.

"I dunno, I think tonight's date went pretty well."

"Yeah..." That's it. The breaking point.

"Make out and then sex, or just straight to sex?"

"Sex."

I smile. He smiles. We head off to the bedroom. Mission accomplished.

So me and my sister were thinking, if Alex can consume people and then turn into them, can he do the same with animals? What do you guys think?
