Emma stood by the window, her eyes fixed on the driveway, her fingers drumming an impatient rhythm against the sill. Her brother, Liam, paced the room, occasionally peering over her shoulder.
"Do you think she'll like it here?"
"Of course she will,"
Whiskers, a small tabby cat with striking green eyes, peers cautiously from her crate.
"She's beautiful,"
"Welcome home, Whiskers,"
Liam crouched low, extending a gentle hand.
"Hey there, little one,"
Whiskers paused, then nuzzled his fingers, her purrs filling the room.
"So, the litter box needs cleaning every day, right?"
"Yup, and we have to feed her twice a day,"
Emma nodded, determination shining in her eyes.
"She's so fast!"
"I think she's getting used to us,"
"I think having Whiskers is going to be amazing,"
"Yeah, she's already part of the family,"
Whiskers stretched lazily, content in the warmth of her new home.
