"It doesn't like me." Winry moaned.

"She." Al corrected.

"She – it – whatever! Nelly said i-she's not afraid of dogs, but even since she saw Den she hasn't come down."

The Elrics and Winry looked up at the orange tabby cat whose fur was fluffed to look twice her size.

"I just don't understand. She's always such a laid-back cat." Winry almost regretted agreeing to watch the animal for her friend.

Ed shrugged. "Maybe it hates the smell of automail."

"That's dumb."

Smell or not – Al seemed to be the only one who could get close to the cat that day.

A/N: This theme was strangely difficult. I'm still not terribly thrilled with the outcome. However, I do think I at least stayed far enough away from most of the cliches involved with FMA and cats for it to be passable. Although Al IS in it – it, at least, doesn't focus on his obsession with cats. :D Likey? No Likey?
