I stalk silently through the house. Searching. For what? I have no idea. Hiding. From what? Yet again, I have no idea. It just seems logical at the moment. I hide in corners, watching as people pass me by. They have no idea that I'm here. Good.
I sprint across my bathroom where my Mom-Mom sits at her glowing box sometimes. Pop-Pop does too, but not as much as Mom-Mom. I turn right, at least I think it's right, and run as fast as I can before jumping on my Pop-Pop's chair. I look around. No one saw me. Good.
I creep from one chair to the next as quietly as I can. I am as silent and as quick as the wind in a raging storm. Just like the night when my mommy and Mom-Mom found me. I am a Not-A-Ninja. Mommy called me that a while ago. No idea what that is. But I like the sound of it. NOT-A-NINJA! Good.
I see a pair of big feet coming closer. I don't move. They're doing something on the table. I slowly peek above the edge and watch as my Daddy puts something in her bag. Mommy said that the other young female is my Daddy. I like her enough. She plays with me a lot. Good.
I freeze. Daddy sees me. We stare at each other for a while. I can't keep it up much longer. I blink and hide on the chair again. I can hear her laughing. Her feet disappear. Victory. I guess this is what it means to be a Not-A-Ninja. Can always hide. Good.
Something moving catches my attention in the jungle by the clear walls. I crouch down more and slowly enter the dense jungle. I hope I don't get lost. I approach my prey. A big red bug with black spots that sways back and forth like my pretty tail. Mommy says I have a pretty tail. The bug is standing on a green stick. The stick is stuck in some weird blue thing. Two bigger green things are bouncing up and down. It doesn't see me. Good.
I climb over some of the shorter pieces of jungle.
I'm almost there.
It's mine.
Just a little bit closer...
…
“Cat!”
I stop. I look over my shoulder at the hyper human running over to me. No no no no no! I try to run away.
“Cat! Don't run away!”
The human grabs me out from under the table. I try to wriggle myself free. I am not a dog that you can chase around the yard, human! They flip me onto my back. Nooooooo!!! My body immediately goes limp. Not good.

Howl is part Ragdoll. A type of fluffy cat that turns into jello as soon as you pick it up. Hence his going limp.
