Maybe getting “caught” was the cat’s plan all along. 😉🐱

Bill Adler's avatar

Some cats like people. Mine does, especially around meal time. =^_^=

Mark Starlin's avatar

We have a “people cat.” He loves nothing better than to curl up against a human on our couch. Any human. Much to some people’s surprise. 🤣

Fun!

A plan gone awry. Maybe your story could be read in Business Schools, for future project managers, LOL!

Bill Adler's avatar

Even though the plan didn't work out the way the plushies expected, I still wouldn't mind being one of them. ;-)

Christina Chew's avatar

Such a great story! So lighthearted and fun to read!

Bill Adler's avatar

Thank you, Christina.

Plushies are living, breathing creatures, even if we humans never see that.

If a child has you trapped,

And you don’t know what to do,

Just sit tight my friend,

Us toys shall rescue you!

Whether you’re red or white,

Caked in dirt or lost a fang,

You can count on us,

We’re The Liberation Gang!

Loved this! And…just like that, you implanted an idea in my head for the direction I will go for the sequel to my first children’s book.

Thanks!
