            As the man was walking down the aisle, he saw a beautiful cat on his side walking right by him. The cat was nice and small with black fur and a long tail. After he saw this cat, he knew that it was the one. He walked up to the cashier with the cat in his hand and told him he had found what he wanted. “Is this all you would like?” the cashier asked.

           

The man replied, “Yes, this is exactly what I am looking for.”  “This cat is perfect for my little two year old son and my beautiful and adoring wife.” As the man was paying for the cat he then remembered that he needed to buy food for it. He got into his car with his cat in hand and started for the pet supply shop. While driving, the man thought that his kid would love the new cat that he had gotten. He knew that the cat would last a while in their house because he has no other animals around and they have a huge house. That meant the cat could have lots of room to roam around. 

           

He had never been into the pet store before, and he thought that it would be a very interesting store. When he got there, he went looking around for someone to help him out. He found this one woman who was dressed in black pants, a white shirt, and had a blue vest on that said, “May I help you?” The man asked the woman what kind of food should I get for a new cat that is a couple weeks old. She told him that he should get the Kitty Cat Munchies. While walking through the aisles he saw some very interesting animals such as a snake who didn’t even move and looked dead. He also he saw a frog that if you were to touch it you would die, and he saw so much colorful fish it was unbelievable.  

           

When he arrived at his house he walked in and got a huge hug from his kid and a big kiss from his lovely wife. Upon arrival, he let the cat run loose inside the house because this cat is an inside cat. His little boy was so happy with the cat and he kept on playing with it for hours.

           

The days went by and the cat grew bigger and bigger and the boy loved the cat more and more. Finally, they had had this cat for almost half a year. That is when they decided to get another cat so it could have someone to play with. The dad came home that day with a new cat that was almost the same age and he thought that having another cat in the house would be a great idea, but he was wrong. As he brought the cat into the house their other cat started hissing and running around all crazy. As he let the new cat out of the cage their older one jumped on it and started to rip and bite the other cat. “Hey, get away from that cat, Moxie!” said the husband. The man grabbed the cat and threw it into his bedroom and closed the door so it couldn’t escape.

           

As the man was looking at the other cat to see if it was okay, he heard a door swing open. The cat that had opened it there was their original cat, Moxie. Once he had turned around he was too late and the cat was once again on the other one and trying to kill it. The man was astounded that the cat could open doors. Now he knew that he would have to do something with the cat before it really did some damage to the other one. He then decided that he would have to make one of them an outside cat. The cat that he made the outside cat was the new cat that he got.

            That is when the man knew that the cat that he had first gotten couldn’t interact with other animals because it had the need to try and kill the other animals. A couple weeks went by and the cat calmed down more and more. Finally the parents decided to give the cat away for free because it was too much responsibility for them to have two cats. Then they decided to take their new cat from the outside and make it an inside cat.
