It was a dreary day in the Seam. I sat on Prim's lap as she lovingly caressed my luscious fur. Arrogant much you may ask, my reply would be rubbish! I am simply using the words that my owner uses most days. I would describe myself more as brilliantly exquisite in every sense of the word. Self-confidence is key you know, though my owners' sister would say otherwise.
I encounter many humans on my daily outings but the ones I see most often would be my fellow house occupants; Katniss, Primrose and their mother, Mrs. Everdeen…though sometimes I do get the pleasantry of seeing Gale Hawthorne-he is one gorgeous hunk of man. Katniss however, is a bit less appealing to the eyes.
Katniss is a very brawny girl; she has long stringy brown hair with dull grey eyes. You'd think with such dismal looks she would make up for it with an astonishingly brilliant personality, well-you would have thought wrong. I personally believe it is her personality that is her major downfall. The day I was saved by my wonderful Prim, her beast of a sister attempted to drown me. Dense girl that one is, I am absolute, her silly little bucket had no affect on me-other than planting a deep seed of hatred.
Prim on the other hand is a beautiful young lady. Almost the exact opposite of Katniss, Prim has glorious long blonde locks with crystal clear blue eyes. Primrose is quite petite, though she has never let her small frame slow her passion for helping others. She is such a caring little girl, as lovely as the flowers she was named after.
Not much can be said for their mother other then she was once as beautiful as Prim. With that being said, time can take its toll on people and having had lost her husband-she is no longer the women she once was. More or less, she is just existing.
Oh, and there is also Lady-Prim's goat. Prim received Lady as a birthday present from her sister. Sometimes there may be a question as to who is the more beloved pet but, there is no question about it. I am obviously more loved because the only reason Prim was allowed to keep Lady is because she produces cheese and milk. Psh, they only love her because she is useful while the love for me is...what was the word Katniss used? Inconsequential I think it was, sadly my vocabulary doesn't extend to that word so, I think it just means that I am loved.
I am a shade of orange that would resemble that of a sunset. There is this funny fellow that lives at the bakery, Pita or Rye I think his name was. He fed me some bread once, said that I was a beautiful little thing and that he would love to paint me one day, he's not very bright though obviously, you can't paint on fur. I saw him throw some bread at Katniss once. It was a shame, he didn't hit her…must not be very coordinated. My eyes are a color I am unaware of but, I think they are close to my fur color, if not a bit darker. I have the structure of any normal feline though, my face is not as pointed which I will admit-it makes drinking and eating a bit of a hassle sometimes.
Most people think that cats are just lazy mammals that depend on humans to survive. That would be the assumption only if one was thinking of a domesticated cat. Yes, I am curious and loving. However, I am also agile and intelligent-as far as common sense goes. I have survived this far, I can support myself and I do not need the help of humans. Though, with Prim around…I wonder if maybe having a family isn't that bad after all.
Hey guys, so this is a revised version of a story I wrote before. As much as I respected the past effort that I put into the story, there was no denying how horrendous my writing was. The attempt was just that-an attempt and if I had put more effort behind it maybe the story would have been better. But who knows, that is in the past and I didn't want to give up on this story because the concept isn't that bad.
Now that I have worn your mind out with that long explanation, I thank you for reading and thank you to any of you out there that are still following this story. So, yea, review if you would like to and chapter one should be up soon.
