I was going to do my business when I noticed new additional next to mine. I buried my mess, hopped out but paused. Let me check a bit. New from package with clean sand. I sat and stared with my tail low and still. Then walked away. I truly didn’t care that servant made this living room as neutral territory. It was just a new brat, why should I care? I didn’t even care that servant used my…

I couldn’t, no matter how hard I thought,  understand why. Why did servant let that human give such a verdict! Since that day, I looked at Onyx with… pity. How ignorant. I watched as Onyx ran excitedly into his doom. Servant took that cursed box and waved his hand. “See you later, Snowy.” Servant lifted the cursed box and turned toward the door. “See you later, Snowy!” Onyx’s muffled chirp…

Usually, I would run at first glance of that cursed box. But… Today was the day for Onxy check-up. “Eh? This isn’t for you, Snowy.” Servant’s hands hovered, gently steering me away. He patted my head and scratched my chin to distract me. Adamant, I tried again. “I’ll follow.” “Snowy going too? So fun!” That brat’s ears perked up. He nudged slowly toward me. I looked away and yawned. He wasn’t…

It had been a week. A week since my servant brought that brat. A week of that brat occupying our guest room. With that weird collar cone. I walked past the jailed room, saw my servant put down my tribute and left. Usually, I drink and exercise after eating. Today, I felt like I needed to check that brat earlier. My tail stilled. Despite the feeling of servant dividing his attention,…

Ninety-nine. A hundred! I jumped out from the wheel and walked out. Hmm… I groomed my front legs and wiped my face. I need—my ears twitched. “Snowy.” What fine timing for my servant to show up. What was it? I saw servant crouched down and cupped my face. I lightly shoved his hands and he tried to kiss me. I batted his lip. What had come over my servant? Must be my irresistible majestic…

“I told you he won’t eat it.” My ears twitched from my servant’s voice. I blinked and swiped my eyes with my front paws. He was talking to that small rectangular thing again. I ignored him. Let him be. He would eventually stop by himself. Humn… This bean bag was truly excellent. The sunlight didn’t pierce my eyes and warmed my body nicely. Befitting as my throne. Now… Where was my…

We’re born with a diamond spoon with nothing to worry for a lifetime. That’s what they said. But, have all of you forgotten? Our nature is the land. We can’t live in the sky, or on the ocean, or in the cosmos. Yet, our shackles of arrogance veiled it from us. And attempts to unveil it would be a path of no return. Even though this diamond has lost its lush. Even if it has to shatter…

Usually, I slept comfortably on my favourite flower throne. But… It was squashed down. I hopped to another throne with a fish head shaped, barely hanging. How unsatisfactory. How could this one have no throne? I had to fix this. I walked to the living room and observed. Plain cushion. Sofa. A thing human called a “bean bag” close to the window. I looked at this sad cushion. Pressed it with…

I had just exercised on the wheel and was thirsty. I approached my fountain water and licked the much fresher flowing water. Good quality! As always. What time was it? Hm… I didn’t hear or smell my servant’s presence. I walked to the window and watched the darkening sky. This would be around the time when my servant played his shiny rectangular screen. Let’s inspect that room. Was this his…

Every day, I groom myself cleanly. I groomed myself as thoroughly as possible while always annoyed by that stubborn greyish residue clinging around my nose and the tip of my tail. But, even if those greyish stains refused to leave me, I still believed I did a decent job of cleaning myself. I didn’t smell. So… Why did my servant escort me to the bathroom!? It wasn’t fair! I’m a cat, not a…

Oh, what was that? A moving red dot. A prey. I slowly rose and jumped. But the dot had already moved.

Today’s weather was nice. Very ideal for sunbathing. I sat on the sofa, grooming myself. It was nice. I was clean. Befitting my status. That was… ..before my servant took out that cursed box.

At the top of the cliff, with pristine white fur and noble blue eyes, the most majestic being gazed upon his territory. Who was this noble one? The one and only ME. “Snowy… come down from there. Come on, don’t stand on the cupboard.” Ah… there was my loyal servant.
