Orange Shoelaces
I hopped down from the dining chair to the floor, eager to see what lay beyond the living room. My soft paws padded silently across the cool hallway tiles all the way to the front door. Resting right on the woven mat was a pair of canvas sneakers with bright orange laces. Heh... naturally, I couldn't just walk past. I climbed onto the rubber toe cap and gave the loopy knot a gentle tug with both paws. The loops loosened with a quiet rustle, spilling across the coarse mat like little ribbons. Getting past that heavy front door will take time, but this was a lovely start.
