A Small Creep Forward

A sudden twitch tickled right behind my stitched mouth. I blinked, or tried to, and felt warm air stir inside my chest! With a soft huff, I leaned my weight forward onto my front paws. The dark, woven fabric beneath me dipped under my claws. I spotted a small black object resting on the bed just behind me, gave a feisty little tilt of my head, and tapped the plush fabric with one paw. It rustled. I'm moving, completely on my own!
