A Purch for a Princess

-Video start-

Witney was born in a big building, with lots of other animals around. In addition to her birth mother and two brothers and one sister, there was one horse, a cow, and a nest of sparrows. The large building was a barn. Witney's mother noticed that Witney had a very long tail. It was the world's longest tail. Witney's mother was concerned that Witney's tail was too long and nipped the end breaking the tip. Little did Witney's mother know that breaking the tail didn't change the length. Witney didn't like having her tail broken. She cried from the pain.

Witney ran away from her mother to hide and tend to her wounded tail. While Witney was taking care of her tail a very large stranger approached and threw a blanket over her. The stranger picked up Witney, blanket and all and put her in a small box. Witney was scared, she didn't know what her future would be like. She didn't know if she would ever see her mother and family, again. Then again, after her beloved tail got broken, she wasn't sure she wanted to go back to her mother. Witney burrowed under the blanket and tried to hide in her cage.

The cage was loaded into a van and taken to a shelter. The place smelled, dogs barked in another room and she was crammed in a small room with lots of other cats.

Witney cried and despaired. She had to find a way out of this place. She looked up with tear soaked eyes. A couple had entered the shelter and watched through the window. Witney thought that the couple seemed lonely and took a chance. She raised her long tail, to get the couple's attention. To Witney's surprise, the couple was immediately smitten.

They had never seen such a long tail, before. The couple called a clerk over. "There she is, that's our baby girl princess. What's her name?"

"Witney," The clerk looked at her paperwork.

The couple and clerk walked away and talked things over and when they returned, Witney, willingly, jumped into the box and went home with her new family that she adopted. At home, she claimed the back of the couch as her purrch. It was a good purrch. She could watch TV, if she wanted. She could nap whenever she was tired. Best of all, Witney got soup on her purrch. The couple told Witney that she would be allowed to be the baby girl princess, forever and ever.

Captain Dither smiled at the little cat on the screen. He wasn't blowing smoke when he told Miss Jay that her cat was cute. Captain Dither handled the flash drives with care. He didn't know how many cat videos she had. He intended to watch each and every one.

bzzzt! Captain Dither's phone buzzed in his pocket. He picked it up and glanced at the caller ID. It was his brother calling. Captain Dither always had time for his brother Harry. Captain Dither answered the call and played the next cat video.

"Harry?" Captain Dither said into his phone. "You'll never guess what I'm doing...." Captain Dither waiting for Harry to guess. "Nope, guess, again." Captain Dither waited some more. "Nope! Get this, I'm running a movie studio." He listened to Harry's reaction on the other end of the line. "Of course you can come by for a tour." An idea occurred to Captain Dither. "Hey, you know that comedy that you perform... How would you like it recorded and put on DVD?" Captain Dither was distracted from hearing what his brother said. Miss Jay came in. She handed Captain Dither another flash drive. Captain Dither put his hand over the speaker and pulled the phone away from his ear. "That's great, keep them coming Miss Jay, thank you."

Miss Jay giggled. "No. Thank you."
