“Grey Cloud... Milton!” Sergeant Oreo turns around in his leather seat and jumps up onto his table. His fancy room with his unforgettable scent of rose and fish fill the air as we take a seat at the two chairs across from his desk. “Sergeant!” We bow our heads to him. “The one leader of the gang we are following has been planning a terrible heist on the small pet store that recently opened on Rainbow Street. I’m sure you two know the place.” He looks at each of us. “Of course! The owner is a swell cat. Very proper and kind. His daughter is C...

I was awoken by a pretty flight attendant tapping my shoulder gently. I startle from the touch. I am taken back as her bright fake smile is inches away from my face. Her hand is resting on my shoulder. “Sir, we have landed at our destination. The plane is empty, it is time for you to exit the plane now so we can board the next set of people. Thank you.” She keeps smiling at me. I politely smile back and get myself situated. “My apologies ma’am! My trip was quite exhausting. There is no rest for the weary is there?” I make small chi...

Once there was a lonely cactus He sat in the desert and cried all his water out. “Please desert sands Won’t you bring me a friend. Any friend? He asked out loud. He grew tired and weary of waiting around, but before the moon arose for the night, along came a tortoise to the cactus’s delight! “Oh tortoise, oh tortoise, up here if you please! I asked the desert for a friend and here you are right in front of me! So tortoise will you stay and be my friend today?” The cactus asked with such glee, hoping the tortoise...
Another day in this boring square home. The walls colors don’t excite me no more. The rugs that once warmed the souls of my paws, now are hard and uncomfortable to even walk upon for a mere second. I still sit watching the outside world either on the large new bay window or the back door (when I am allowed upstairs that is). Nothing is happening and I have grown weary of waiting for some kind of adventure to happen, but nothing! I cross another day off in my calendar. Days have been passing slower than a snail. Another bleak day in a melanch...

The rain coming down fast and strong. I snuck into the broken screen door on the back entrance. I crept alongside the stairwell before disguising myself in the ruffled curtains at the bottom of the staircase. I poked my head out just enough to get a glimpse at what was taking place in the basement of that run down home that evening. A circle of strong, powerful, and confident felines talked quietly amongst themselves. Before I could truly get to cracking this case and putting these no good felines behind the bars and off the streets; my cove...
I stretched out on the white bay window. The sun hitting my orange fur causing such comfort. I yawned as I stared out into the outside world. The birds chirping their songs, the squirrels collecting food, and bugs busily buzzing about. I knew I had important business to attend to, but I could not let the no paw creatures find out my true identity. I had to be quite sneaky. If only they knew that I was not just placed in a shelter like the others to be pets! I was sent here by my superior officer and head of the Secret Intelligence Servi...
