Author's Note: I don't own anything except for Shelby and Truffles.
Voldemort was so excited about going to the pet shop that he accidentally forgot the snake. Thankfully, Lucius decided to adopt the snake and give it to Draco as a belated birthday present. Also, Voldemort took off so fast that he forgot to take Snape with him. Voldemort preferred to do this by himself because after all, the kitten would be his and no one else would own it.
Voldemort came across the pet shop and he smiled. His loneliness would soon be over. As he walked into the store, he saw that the person who would be helping him was the witch from the grocery store where he bought his dinosaur nuggets. "Shelby?" asked Voldemort.
"Hi Voldemort!"
"What are you doing here?"
"It pays better here!"
Voldemort smiled as Shelby said, "What can I do to help you today?"
"I am here to adopt a kitten!"
"You've come to the right place then!"
Shelby led Voldemort past the dogs, the frogs, rodents, the turtles, and the birds. They then came across the kittens. "Fluffy minions from heaven!" gasped Voldemort.
There was a huge playroom with all kinds of kittens. Fluffy ones, skinny ones, fat ones, big cats, little cats. Shelby took out a key and let Voldemort in. Voldemort sat in the center of the room and Shelby sat next to him. "Let the kitten come to you. You will know in your heart when it's a match."
Voldemort nodded as Shelby showed him how to introduce yourself to a kitten. "You curl up your hand like this," she showed him, "And then you curl up your finger and let the cat sniff it."
Voldemort giggled as a few kittens came towards him. There was a fat white cat, a small grey kitten, and a fluffy brown and gray cat. Voldemort greeted them and the white cat tried to get into Voldemort's lap. Unfortunately, the cat was so fat that the cat could not get in his lap. The gray kitten stood far away. The fluffy cat was chasing his tail and then rolled over.
"Not one of them likes me," Voldemort gasped.
"Give it time."
Suddenly, a cream colored kitten appeared. It was a female and had a nice round face. She wasn't completely fluffy, but her coat was soft and beautiful. Voldemort was mesmorized by this beautiful kitten. The kitten walked towards him and Voldemort stuck out his hand. The kitten rubbed her head on his hand and then gave him a lick. "I think she likes you!" Shelby smiled.
Voldemort gasped as the kitten curled up in his lap. He slowly began to stroke the kitten and she began to purr so loudly. Voldemort felt like he was going to cry because he was so happy. "What's her name?" asked Voldemort.
"Truffles!"
"How cute!" gushed Voldemort as Truffles rolled over onto her back as Voldemort continued to pet her.
Truffles got up off of Voldemort's lap and walked over to Shelby and then looked back at Voldemort. Voldemort could have sworn that Truffles smiled at him. "Truffles is the one!"
Shelby conjured up a cat carrier and Truffles went into the cat carrier. "Wow, it was that easy?" Voldemort gasped.
Shelby smiled.
