When Judy met Lily

 

It was a cold winter morning. The bright morning sun shimmered through the snow. It was the day when Judy the alpaca meets Lily. Judy and her partner Jake had wanted a baby ever since they got together. They would look up to the sky and watch a plane go by and wonder if it would drop a baby for them to catch. But fate had some different plan for them.

So one day while Jake set out to go the fields, Judy stayed at home. She was busy with her chores when she heard a faint meowing outside. She thought it might be a stray cat looking around for food. But the meowing continued. So she came outside expecting to find a stray cat. Instead what she saw made her heart skip a beat. It was a tiny kitten playing all by itself with a flower. Judy stood there, amused by the kitten’s play. The kitten jumped around the flower, meowing as if it were another kitten. This continued for a while, until Jake arrived home.

“Look Jake, such a tiny kitten”, exclaimed Judy.

So they both stood there watching the kitten as it played. Their hearts filled with joy and laughter. After a while the kitten got tired and started looking for its mother. But no mommy cat was to be seen around. That’s when it struck Judy that the kitten must have been lost.

They brought it home and fed some milk. After a good meal, the kitten rolled up near Judy and fell asleep. Judy was touched by the gesture.

Watching that Jake suggested, “Let the kitty stay with us until it finds its mother.”

Judy beamed with delight. And that’s how the little kitten, Lily, became the light of the lives of Judy and Jake.
