In a cozy pet shop on Maple Street, three kittens- Milo, Muffin, and Mochi– loved playing hide-and-seek.
Their favorite hiding spot? The big cardboard boxes near the back door.
One snowy afternoon, as they tumbled into a box labeled “Fragile – Fish Delivery”, they giggled.
“Bet no one will find us here!” whispered Muffin.
But suddenly—thunk!—the box was sealed shut, lifted onto a truck, and driven away! Milo’s whiskers trembled. “Uh-oh… this doesn’t sound like nap time anymore!”
Hours later, after planes, boats, and lots of bumps, the kittens felt the box stop. They peeked through a flap and gasped.
“Snow… as far as the eye can see!” said Mochi.
“And penguins! Wait, what’s a penguin?”
The Penguin Who Thought They Were Snowballs
As they climbed out of the box, a small penguin waddled up, blinking.
“Blub-blub! New snowballs?” he squawked. “We’re kittens, not snowballs!” said Milo, shaking snow off his fur.
“Names, please?” asked the penguin politely.
“I’m Milo, this is Muffin, and that’s Mochi,” said the kittens proudly. “Who are you?” “I’m Percy the Penguin, Official Snow Slide Tester!” Percy announced.
Mochi’s eyes lit up. “That sounds awesome!” Percy grinned. “Want to try?”
Before they could answer, he pushed them onto a hill of ice. The kittens whooshed down, spinning, meowing, and giggling all the way.
Muffin crashed into a snowdrift and popped out wearing an accidental snow hat. Percy laughed so hard he fell over. “You kittens are funny-shaped snowballs after all!”
The Frozen Fish Fiasco
After all the sliding, the kittens’ tummies rumbled.
“Got any milk?” asked Milo.
“Milk?” said Percy. “No, but there’s fish!” The kittens looked at each other. “Eew!” said Muffin. “That’s wet meat!”
But Percy proudly brought out a tray of icy fish popsicles. “It’s the North Pole special!”
Mochi took a tiny lick. “Hmm… it’s… chilly but kind of tasty!”
Soon, all three kittens were happily nibbling frozen fish while Percy built them a mini igloo. “You’re the first furry visitors we’ve ever had,” Percy said. “Stay for the Polar Party tonight!”
“What’s that?” asked Milo.
Percy winked. “Dancing, music, and… more fish.” The kittens meowed in unison. “Maybe just the dancing part!”.
The Paws, the Penguin, and the Plane Home
The next morning, the kittens woke to a loud rumble. A supply plane had landed nearby!
Percy waddled up sadly. “Guess this means you’re heading home.” Mochi nuzzled him. “We’ll miss you, Percy.”
“Don’t worry,” said Percy with a wink. “I’ll visit when the penguin post opens!”
Before boarding, Muffin handed him a tiny fish-shaped charm made of ice.
“So you won’t forget us!”
As the plane soared away, Percy waved with both flippers, shouting,
“Goodbye, my favorite snowballs!” Back at the pet shop, the kittens told their tale to everyone who’d listen.
And whenever they saw snowflakes falling outside, they’d meow softly,
“Wonder if Percy’s testing his snow slides right now.”
The End !
