The Adopted Neko and His Family

Hungry and Taken and A New Home (DUH DUH DUH!)

 ???'s P.O.V

I didn't have a name. My life? Lonely, odd, homeless... you get the picture. I was currently a black furred cat with grayish/purple eyes and I was starving.

Now you may be thinking, why read about a cat's life? Well my life is more interesting than you think. Anyways, back to the story, not many stray cats liked me because I liked being around humans.

I was a nekojin in my true form. You know, black cat ears and cat tail with gray eyes but human? It's a long story but blah,blah,blah, experimented on, blah, blah, blah, escaped, blah, blah, blah, homeless and now half cat.

I just summed up the story of my life. So yeah, I was in a dark alleyway and starving and it's not like I could just turn into my neko form and expect humans to give me food. That would be weird and quite disturbing.

So after what must have been hours of searching I FINALLY smelt food. Following the scent I found a dumpster. First off, I was hungry and second off, I was part cat so it was technically fine to dig in a dumpster...right?

Well, whatever. I never asked. I jumped onto a few crates and finally made my way to the food. FOOD! Fries, chicken nuggets, half eaten muffins, trash... of course, molded bread, a fourth of an eaten hamburger, and so, so much more. Immediately I jumped in without giving a second thought nor noticing the human watching me.

 It wasn't the best in the world but food was food. After I finished I hopped down and thought of where to go. It looked like it was about to rain. A split second later then was a net around me?

I think I panicked a bit because I don't remember much except I was meowing like crazy and trying not to speak English. What do I do!? Suddenly I was in a cage after hissing at whoever had caught me then the door shut.

It was dark, terrifying, and a part of me worried if I was going to die. Where was I going? What would happen to me? It was obvious I was in a moving truck and headed who-knows-where.

It seemed to be hours but there was no way I was becoming my neko self or speaking English as a cat. Whoever had caught me would probably immediately make a U-turn to the Laboratory... unless that's where he was headed.

I shivered a bit from the cold and fear. If I was going back I might as well die because I was not going to be experimented on again! I sneezed from the dust. Wherever we were headed better be close by so maybe I can get out of here and escape.

After what felt like half an hour the truck finally stopped. FINALLY! Longest drive ever. The moment the truck was opened I hissed. I ended up inside and in a cage.

Yeah, I didn't escape unfortunately. The only bright side of being through all this was that I got some food and water. It wasn't fish or milk though.

So yeah. A week of being in this place worrying for my life. Finally the day came that I could finally leave! The cage door was finally opened by a human!

I would finally get to run free! Get to eat whatever I wanted! Get to--

My thoughts were cut off as I was picked up. Stupid absent-mindedness! I would have hissed but this person, a woman, pet me behind the ears. It felt so nice.

I was purring without hardly realizing it. "He's definitely the one." She said. The one? What was happening. Maybe I should jump down, switch forms, and take a run for it?

The humans spoke to each other and the woman signed the papers. "We had decided on a boy and everyone agreed on the name Blake." She said. I should have been listening. Was she talking about me? Wait... Was I getting adopted?

I was put into another cage, to my misfortune, and watched as the woman went over to a wall of collars, leashes, toys, and food. After watching her look I watched her grab a bright red collar.

Would a red collar go with my black fur? I mean, I guess it was mine but was this woman going to be nice to me? I continued watching as she bought the collar and thanked the man before leaving with me.

I wonder if she had to pay for me? How much would I have been? The woman put me in the car and off she drove to wherever my would-be new home was. I did not enjoy being in moving vehicles.

After everything I had been through the past week I think I was officially done with the large human-controlled moving machine. When I tried to look around the inside of the car it seemed like there was many seats.

I ignored it. Maybe this particular human liked large moving vehicles. Shrugging it off, I laid down in the cage and started to slowly fall asleep. My nap only lasted like 5 minutes before I felt the cage being picked up. We were here.

My new home! I was a bit worried but what's the worst that could happen? She opened the door and inside we went. Up stairs and there was a living room and a kitchen. Not long after she set my cage down she opened the cage door.

FREEDOM! I had never been happier to leave a closed place! Before I could sprint for my life though I heard... footsteps... MORE HUMANS!?

A teenage boy, a teenage girl, a little boy, and  little girl all ran inside and gasped. The attention was almost too much with all the eyes and talking and another human came in and kissed the woman. SO MANY PEOPLE!

Was this where I was living? What if one of the humans didn't like me? I had over a billion questions running though my head at that moment. I was the pet of a household of 6...
