OHHHH MYYY PCCC-ÆÆAAAA
I slipped back inside through the cracked patio door as the garden grew dark. Resting side by side near the hallway rug, two oversized felt slippers caught my attention. I halted, tilted my head, and circled the left slipper twice to inspect its rounded toe. With a cautious nudge of my front paw, I tested the thick wool rim. It yielded softly. I crept forward step by step, folding my jointed legs beneath me until my front half was nestled deep inside the fleece-lined pocket. Peering out from the fuzzy opening, I let my tail click softly against the floorboards and settled in.
