Ramona's Last time outside! - Short Story



This is me, I am Ramona and I used to be able to go outside. But I made a big mistake and now I have to stay in. 

But you want to know my story? Yes?  

I was adopted by a loving family in Jerusalem when I was a kitten.   Here is a video of when I was a kitten, I was cute?  No, more like a rat.  But no matter. I was loved and I liked music. 

But I like adventure and so when the back door would open, I would run for it and climb the pergola and whoop, out on the roof I would go.  Did I tell you that we live on the 7th floor? Yes, it is a long way down!  

This is the view from the window inside. 

But one day I was able to get out!! Glory be, it was wonderful to be up on the roof!  Fresh air, chasing pigeons, taking a nap in the sun, what more could a cat want? 

Food.  Yes, but freedom is more important! 

I was have a grand time all day, and I wasn't even hungry.  

Ohh, the wind is starting to blow!  It is getting dark!  I need go back inside, but now it is raining!  Rain! Water from the sky.  I can't go out in that!  I'm hungry now.  
Where? Oh, there is a cat sized space.  I've never been here before,  its dirty. Yuck, no food, but here's a puddle.  Tastes weird, oh well. 

Tired, Gotta sleep.  

Whoa, it is still raining. How long has it been? I don't know, but now I'm really hungry!  

Meow, Meow meow. 

Meow Meow Meow 

Nobody is here.  
Wait, there is someone, my family has come to find me, but I don't like being caught.  They brought me some food.  I'll wait until they leave and then take it. 

Meow Meow Meow 
Still raining.  It must be another day, This place is really dirty, there is a noise that I hear rummph rummph rummph  then it stops and goes again.  There is a machine that goes up and down.  Its interesting to see, but I don't want to go close. 

Meow Meow Meow 

I have to sleep here again. No soft cushions and it wet.  wet wet. 

Now I wake up and its stopped raining.  Can I go home now?  

I think I remember how to find the way back.  This way? No, yuck another dirty puddle. 

Ahh, the roof!  Here it is!  I have to find my litter box.  Gotta find the litter box.  You know a cats gotta go sometime. 

There, the porch of my family.  Zuup, zomp, zump, oh, the paws hurt that last jump was a doozy! in at last.  wow, how dirty I am, this is going to take some time to clean up. 

I was gone for 3 days?  Wow, well one moment up the stairs, litter box here I come!!!
