I woke up to Storm whining loudly at the window the rain hadn't calmed through the night. My guess is the pup was hungry in pain and scared. Thunder roared through the sky once more making a large tree tap on my widow. Storm mewled softly then shied away under my bed. I rolled off my bed I stretched out I felt a nice pop in my back. I slowly laid down on my belly on the floor to get Storm out so I could fed the little guy. I reach under then gently pulled him out. "Catherine come down it's time for breakfast." I sighed my parents adored me they're always there for me, and I them, but with me becoming a mute how long can they last. I grabbed Storm, and carried him down the stairs. "Hi mom hi dad." They both turned to greet me a little in shock written on their faces until their eyes landed on Storm. "Cathrine what's that fox doing here?" I looked to Storm he was lightly purring in my hand snuggling close to me.
I don't know why, but the puffy red tailed fox was calming my nerves. I cooed down to him, "I was out last night when I saw him he was injured his days were numbered I stop the count down. His name is Storm he appears to be likely 11 months. So do we have any bottles." My mom sighed I've been to many therapies none in which could help with my best friends death. She walked over to a cupboard, and pulled out a baby's bottle. She put some milk into it then warmed it to the perfect temp not too hot, but not too cold. She handed me the bottle said nothing more about it. I smiled to her, "You know he calms my nerves." My parents looked at me in shock. I could tell they won't expecting that. Expect the unexpected I always thought. "Really?" They both ask in unison I laughed softly I love it when people did that.
I nodded as I began to feed Storm I could feel the rumbling in his stomach quiet down he is a bit small to be the age I think he is . 'I'll take him to the vet when it opens.' I told myself. "You're keeping him then, What was his name again it is a boy right. it looks like a girl 10 bucks it's a girl." My mom always betting, but she's not a gambler she alway lose. I nodded. I finished eating the pancakes that was on my plate. They had chocolate chips in them my favorite. I grabbed Storm, and headed upstairs to get ready. I put on a simple tee shirt and jeans I put on my black hoodie.
I grabbed an umbrella and Storm, and left. The vet was shock to have a baby fox brought in, but nevertheless they tended him. He was male like I knew he was undernourished, and roughly 10 months old other than that he was healthy. They gave him the Kennel Cough and the Rabies shot just to be on the safe side Storm wasn't fond of the needle pricking him. Which I found odd he was just fine last night when I gave it to him.
