Sherlock's Kitten

by CassieWolfe

A series of short disconnected stories. Basically, Sherlock finds a dying kitten and brings it home. Inspired by a beautiful mental image of Sherlock handing John a small, wet kitten with no explanation. K for like one swear word.

"Excuse me, Mrs. Hudson?"

"What? It's midnight!"

"Well, that's the problem," John said tentatively. "Sherlock just has to go out on a case – some guy got his heart ripped out in Times Square – and I can't leave Debbie. She has to be fed every three hours still, so I was wondering-"

"Yes, yes," Mrs. Hudson said with a sigh. "Give her here."

John handed the kitten over, privately wondering if he'd ever see her again.

Werewolf attack, obviously.
