Cats by Anjali D.


Ebb walked down the street. She was a sweet brown cat and loved to catch rodents. She was bored and waited for the clock tower to strike 10, for that was the time she was going to see Callie and Gracey. As her 2 best friends, Gracey was a gray fat cat and Callie was a calico and a vocal cat. She was meeting them at café Meow, where they served the best desserts: Whisker Lickens. As the minute hand reached 9:55, Ebb raced down Purr Street in order to get to café Meow on time.
            When she got there, she was surprised to find a young black tomcat by the name of Sushi waiting expectantly. “What are you waiting for?” Ebb asked. “Cleo,” responded Sushi. The 2 of them had been best friends since they were born. As she walked into café Meow, she saw Callie waiting at one of the tables. Rushing over, Ebb accidently tripped over a cat’s tail. Immediately Callie jumped up and helped her friend to her paws. “Are you okay?” Callie asked, sympathetic. “I’m fine, thanks,” Ebb said, getting up,” Where is Gracey?” “ She said that she would be here any minute,” meowed Callie, checking her banana phone. As they sat down, Goblin, the waiter, walked over to them. “ Are you waiting for someone?” Goblin meowed. “Yes,” Ebb meowed,” we’re waiting for another cat.” As they waited, they watched all the different foods being made. They saw a Treat Deluxe, Salmon soft food, and a mouse.
            Gracey finally came and there was a rejoice. Gracey’s appointment with the vet had run late.
            This time when Goblin came over, they were ready. “Could I please have a mouse?” Ebb asked. “And could I please have Salmon Dry Food?” asked Gracey. “Could I have Tuna Soft food?” Callie meowed. “ Your orders will be here in a few minutes.” Goblin said as he walked away. “So….” Gracey said, trying to fill the empty silence.” So I  was wondering I you guys wanted to go on a cruise?” Ebb asked. “A CRUISE?” Callie asked, amazed. “you mean you will pay for it and everything?” Gracey meowed, clearly stunned. “Yes, Yes and yes,” Ebb said, “ we are going to the Bahamas!” “Great!” Gracey and Callie purred. The cats continued their excited squeals throughout the meal. They planned there trip and then went home to start packing.
