A Sudden Jingle
A tiny spark flicked inside my chest! I gave my head a brisk shake—clink-ting! The golden bell around my neck rang clear. My paws flexed, gripping the slick brown leather beneath me. Right beside me sat a soft, puffy fabric basket patterned with blue bows. Eager to check it out, I pushed forward, planting my front paws firmly against its squishy side. It dipped softly under my nose. I can move, I can nudge, and this warm spot is mine to explore!
