I need to get my mind off of school for a little while. Maybe I could get a pet, but what kind? Maybe dog, or cat. I need an animal that I can play with after school but not go crazy while I am gone.
I found my shoes and my satchel and walking out to my bike. I rummaged through some old stuff and found a basket. Hopefully this is big enough. I grabbed a small Blanket and put it in the basket. I went outside and hooked it to my bike and made sure that it was secure.
" There, now whatever animal I choose, it will be comfortable," I looked at my bike satisfied at what I found and pedaled down the road to the nearest pet shop.
*****15 minutes later*****
I arrived at the pet shop and looked around at all the choices. This is going to be difficult. My favorite breed of cat is a Persian or Tabby cat. I have a few choices for the breed of dog I want. There are Jack Russell's, Saint Bernard's, any type of lab. I guess I will just have to play with them all.
I started with the cats, they were only 3 months old. They look so cute! I picked up a Blue Russian that was perfect hand size. I raised my finger and moved it above its head. He pawed at it and tried to leap in the air. I looked down to the ground and there were multiple Persians rubbing against my leg. I smiled at them as they tried to use me as a scratching post. I don't want to declaw a cat if I get one but my furniture will pay for it if I don't.
It was so hard to leave the kitten but I had to see the puppies. Next is a lizard. I went over to where they had the puppies and they weren't much older. I smiled at the brothers biting their sisters ears and them yipping back.
There are at least four different litters. I asked the owner what kind of puppies are a little calmer and they brought me a few Saint Bernard's. I smiled and put them in the play pen. I sat on a bench and they automatically starting biting each other.
"Are these both boys?" I asked the owner and he nodded.
" Yes, they are also from two different litters so if you only want one, you can take one with out the other getting depressed," he said.
"I am thinking about getting this one," I said raising a large puppy into my hands.
"Well this puppy is 100 percent Saint Bernard. All the puppies are 600 dollars and that is with out all the supplies. But, since you are planning to buy a dog, all the supplies are 50 percent off," he said smiling.
" That sounds great. I will get this one then," I was so excited to bring him home.
" Okay I'll make sure the collar fits him," he lifted him on the desk and rapped the collar around his skinny little neck.
" He looks so cute," I said.
He added the leash on him and set the food, toys, the bed, and bowls on the counter.
" Okay is that all for you today?"
" Yes thank you," I grabbed my wallet out of my pocket and pulled out my debit card.
" Alright, your total is $680," I handed her my card and she swiped it and gave me the receipt.
" Thank you, have a nice day," he said with a smile.
" You too," I grabbed my new puppy and put him on the floor. I also grabbed the food, the bed, the toys, and the bowls and headed out.
I put the supplies in the back basket and the puppy in the front. He wagged his tail in excitement. I think I made a good choice. I gave him a pat on the head and pedaled down the street back home.
******skipping ride home******
I grabbed my phone and typed in Marco's number. I really want some pizza. My favorite type of pizza is just the plain cheese pizza.
They should be here in 15 minutes. In the mean time I need to find something to do. I should probably name my new puppy. Maybe Mugwie? I've always wanted to name my pet that. It's a pretty weird name but I think it is adorable. I went to the other side of the room and called for him.
"Mugwie! Come here boy!" He didn't respond. I guess that's a no then. He could be a Pip. "Pip! Come here boy!" he ran up towards me and jumped on my lap. I smiled and gave him a pet. His official name is Pip.
I grabbed the toys off of the counter and plopped them in front of him. He started to sniff them curiously. I sat on the floor and started to drag them on the ground. He started hopping around the toy trying to catch it.
We played a couple more minutes until the doorbell rang. I got my wallet a searched for a 20 dollars. I opened the door to see tall woman smiling with a pizza in her hand.
"Hello, are you Kayla? I have a cheese pizza with extra sauce," she said.
"Yep, that's me, how much is this again?" I asked.
"7 dollars," she said getting the pizza out of the bag.
"There you go, keep the change. Thank you ma'am," I handed her the 20 dollars and took the pizza.
" Thank you very much! Have a good day," She left with a bigger smile on her face.
I closed the door and set the pizza on the counter. I grabbed a napkin and a pizza and turned on Netflix.
" Mmmm.... this is good pizza," I smiled and picked a random movie I haven't seen yet.
