The Donut Fort

I squeezed back inside through the patio door, nudging my red rubber bouncy ball across the living room rug! Resting beside the bookshelf was a horseshoe-shaped travel neck pillow made of heather-grey fleece. A little black plastic buckle dangled from the tips! Impulsive snap! I hauled both curved ends together with my arms and shoved the prongs into the clasp—click! The pillow locked tight into a perfect plush donut. I rolled my bouncy ball right into the hollow center like a shiny prize, then wiggled my hind paws backward into the donut hole. The squishy fleece hugs me from all sides, chin resting right on the cushion rim. Safe and snug!
