It was a Friday afternoon when Emily got home from school, she asked her mom if they could go adopt a cat. Her mom was promising her for awhile they would go get a cat. Emily was very excited. She ran outside to the car and her mom and her were on there way to the shelter. "Are we almost there yet!" Her mom chuckled. "Emily, were just going to go look today. We have to buy the cat stuff first.
Emily and her mom pulled into the parking lot of the shelter. Emily read the sign. It said "Happy Endings." She smiled and ran inside of the building. As she ran her mom walked in be hide her. Cats were everywhere in the building "Hello." A woman walked up with a kitten in her hands. As put the kitten down to run around, Emily's mom was telling the lady what kind of cat they were looking for and why they were there.Emily just walked around. She looked in this cage and inside that cage was the most cutest kitten ever. She looked around. Her mom and the lady walked up be hide her. "Ahh. Noelle. She loves to play. I think sometimes she thinks shes a dog because she'll want you to rub her tummy." Emily looked up and chuckled. The lady opened the cage and Noelle walked out. For about 10 minutes Noelle played with Emily. " Mom she's perfect!"
Emily and her mom adopted the cat. "Alright your all set! Come Tuesday to pick her up!" Emily hugged the cat goos bye and hugged the lady. "Thank you!" As Emily and her mom left they were thinking about what to name the cat. The cat's name was Noelle but they wanted a name to call her for there own. " How about Stella? Or wait, Bella!" Emily's mom smiled. " I like Bella." Emily looked out the window. She could just imagine her and the cat in her room. Laying on the other side of her bed at night. All she could to is imagine how the cat would be like at home, until she would pick her up.
It was Monday night and it was the day to pick Bella up. "Yay!" Mom you have everything ready?!" Her mom yelled down the hall. "Yes sweetie!" Emily was so excited. Tomorrow by this time she would have a cat! In her own room! She layed down and fell right to sleep the next day they went back tot he shelter. Emily and her mom picked up Bella and brought her home. At first Bella was afraid of us. But by Friday. She was already apart of the family.
The events of this story were so clearly written that it made me wonder if this was based off a true story. Well done!
