The Big Thing!
by Fuzzbutt of SL, June 11, 2016
Something is scratching about in the alley. It woke me, and is plainly just behind the back wall of the nap place. Yes, I hear it. All the time, it’s not new. This time I know I’ll catch it. Getting up, just the barest stretch to work off the sleep…

Quietly, slip out the door and around the corner… keep low, crouching, close to the wall…
“There you are!” comes The Boss’s voice, loud and insistent! Of course I jump, wouldn’t you? How does he do that? He’s a big, lumbering human (well, this time) and yet out of nowhere he’s behind me, scooping me up as soon as I hit the sidewalk (on my feet of course). And, as well, the scratchy-thing skitters off and away.
The Boss has been busy. The Big Thing is really big right now. plan plan plan work work work meet meet meet and back to the beginning. People are funny that way. But, he wants me there. He even rousts me from my power-naps, makes sure I have which ever hat he thinks is best, and so on. Still, I was close, so close this time >:-( I will catch thing, yes I will!
…and… We’re on a boat. A BIG boat. I’ve not been on a boat this big before. Boats bring fish! Many time The Boss and I sit at the docks as we watch the water, and wait for the boats. Boats with fish. Big fish, little fish… fish fish and more fish! So this is a big boat, big enough to bring more fish than all the kittycats at the Kitty Store could dream! The Boss is good, The Boss is Great! Fresh Fish for me, yes, on my plate! (See how I did that? I love fish!)

But, no... no fish yet. People are now coming, and The Boss talks about Lovecraft Festival, about stores and games and parties and trips to an island and --- Eleanor! Eleanor's here! Eleanor LOVES kitties! She smells of kitties! She has many, many kittycats! At last year's Big Thing Eleanor found many people for so many kitties, many kitties from many people for many people to give kitties great homes! I got to stay with Eleanor for a couple days! She took pictures, gave me a new collar - a squiddy-octopussy-tentacle collar! And she said all those kitties getting new homes were in my name... Well, "Fuzzbutt"... not Fardoragh... but, Eleanor's nice, loves kittycats... so we live with her human funny quirks.
Again The Boss is going to make me The Big Thing Street King. I am always the King of the Big Thing's streets. People, lots of people... many stop to visit with me. I stop to visit with them. I've made many people-friends at The Big Things.
...and, I always get the best fish from The Boss.
Life is Good.
