The Cat Who Promised to Become a FriendA cat speaks sweetly to a group of birds, but they stay safe because kind words do not erase sharp claws.
1. On a bright spring morning, a small orange tabby cat with white paws, a white muzzle, a cream-colored belly, green eyes, and a blue ribbon around the neck carried a basket of apples beneath an old tree.
2. Three little birds watched from a low branch. The cat folded its paws and smiled. “Good morning,” it called. “You look lovely today.”
3. “I am tired of being alone,” said the cat. “From today on, I promise to become your friend.”
4. The cat pushed an apple toward them. “Please come down,” it said. “We can share breakfast and tell stories.”
5. The birds whispered together. Sweet words were pleasant, but the cat still had claws.
6. Then the cat reached for the apple. Its paw stretched out, and tiny claws peeked through the fur.
7. “Oh, that was only a stretch,” said the cat. “Come closer. I would never hurt a friend.”
8. The birds thanked the cat for the apple. They did not come closer. They stayed high in the tree, where their feet and feathers were safe.
9. The cat's voice stayed sweet. The birds' answer stayed wise. Kind words could sound lovely, but they did not erase sharp claws.
