A Curious Tap
A sudden warm spark tickled my chest! My ears twitched upright, and my little stubby arms actually swung forward on their own. Right in front of my toes lay a colorful paper card resting on a dark cloth. I leaned forward excitedly and tapped it with one paw. It slid across the quilt with a crisp little rustle! I can move, I can touch, and everything around me is real!
