When I pressed my paws against the cool wooden baseboard, whoosh—a sudden, chilly puff of morning air rushed in! It smelled like dry fallen leaves and damp pavement! I wiggled my nose, leaning right up against the dark metal door frame to peek into the tiny gap. There is a whole gigantic world buzzing right outside, and I really want to step out!
