As I entered the store and saw all the puppys jump, I jumped a bit in fear.

"Scared of em' puppers?"

"A bit"

"We got the kittens right over ere'"
Their accent was heavy with texan, which was odd as I was in Germany.

"Are you american?"

"A bit dear... please don't jugde"

"I won't, you have good english skills"

"Thanks alot sweetie"
I nidded and headed to the kitten area, seeing a mother right away. Her blonde-yellow coat caught my eye with brown-butter kittens and a black-dotted orange one. The dotted one caught my eye the most.

"Hi kitty"
A feeble meow came in response and I grabbed the blue yarn ball, unreeling it a bit for the kitten.

"Here, you can play"
The mothers eyes gazed over to me so I put a fist to her so she knew I was safe. After a few sniffs she dropped me and licked the brown tabbys.

"How did a yellow cat give birth to those?"

"By matin' with some darker kat. A kitten breeder gave her and her kittens to us"

"Oh, do you know their name?"
I lifted the orange cat a little, and made sure they didn't freak out.

"He's Junior, and seems to be a runt or stray added to mama's collection"

"I'll take him"
The person nodded and walked off to get some papers, and I mimicked the texan accent. Junior meowed with me and nibbled my hand a tinie bit.

"I picked the right one"
I set him down with the yarn ball and went to another cat, playing with a feather. Their drabby grey-black coat had white spots and they looked old. A cat next to them was a grey tabby as well, with the same blue-green eyes.

"Got your papers, ya ready darling?"

"Just looking at other cats"

"Glad ya picked a runt, they stay until their late years usually"

"I just like him"

"Glad then, you can buy some gear ere' as well"
I signed the paper and grabbed a bag given to me, then went to grab some basics. After I grabbed Junior and headed home.

The next day I let him climb my legs all day and soon he climed to my pride flag, letting a meow out like he was asking a question.

"Thats my pride flag, I'm Catgender"
He climbed down and begged for some food like he did a hour ago. I put a can down and ran a shower for me, locking the door in hopes that Junior couldn't open locked doors. I wanted privacy for one day. Or one hour.

I left the shower and spelt words in the mirror for fun, I heard a bag fall in the kitchen.

"Junior?"
I quickly put some clothes on to cover up for his sight and went out to see the bag of corn and potatoes on the floor, with a orange kitty biting the plastic.

"Ey! Thats for dinner next sunday"
I tore him away and put a plate down with some cheese, and watched him purr.

"Glad your better"
