- [❀] ‘A New Home Under Starlit Skies’ [] Grouse Finding SRP [❀] -

Instructions

- ♥️ [ Welcome... ] ♥️ - ♡ -------------------- ♡ ❀ [] It was a long way in the evening, the sky pick-black riddles with silver stars shining brightly, bathing the neighbourhood in their gentle light. Only a slim crescent was showing of the moon. The people slept in their houses at the outskirts of what the wild cats of the Vast Planes called the Twolegplace. About said cats... None of the people there had noticed the tiny kitten, curled up under a green blanket in the old wicker basket. But could they? Who knows when or how they, the kitten and the basket, got there. And the kitten himself didn't care either, nor remember or would remember anything beyond the basket other than names and colors and blurry, so blurry inages of orange, red, yellow and brown leaves of trees, the wilderness, the forest, they called it. He was in that forest now in his fluid dreams of escapade and adventure. But he was getting hungry, so hungry! When was the last time he'd eaten? He didn't know, but his tummy's rumbling indicated too long. His waves of frilly fur ruffled in the chilly autumn night breeze. Smalk ears twitched as with a yawn the kitten opened his warm honey eyes, sitting up, his head suddenly hit by the breeze that now it was completely exposed to. He shuddered. Mommy, I'm hungry!, he thought, relessing loud mew. No one was coming. Try again! Another high-pitched meow followed, then another, then another. The soft blanket hals slid off the tom, to which he picked it up in his mouth and tried to get it up on himself again. It was cold! And he was hungry! Why wouldn't anyone come? His belly rumbled again. But in the next moment, perhaps the most tertifying thing happened to him in his short life that far - which could have barely been more than two months. Fallen leaves cracked under careful footsteps as a blinding, bright yellow light pierced through the star-lit darkness. An owl, that was just taking it's flight, seemingly towards the kit!, turned back in fright. The tomkit, painted in all shades of warm brown swirled around to see two enormous figures emerging, Twolegs! 'Hello? You there!' he mewed. His heart was pounding noisly, but he could only think they could help, maybe? He flinched as the flashlight shown at him and ducked under the edge of the wicker basket. The Twolegs, a couple had been camping the last couple days, and thought that they'd be able to make it back before nightfall. But it seems like they miscalculated a bit... It was quite a bit after, afterall. However, the kit opened his eyes again, to see the Twolegs looking worriedly at him. They came closer and ne of them leaned down. The tomkit sniffed and mewed again. 'Will you help me pretty pleaseee? I'm hungry!' The Twoleg didn't seem to understand his tounge, but her head to the other one, and started using her own language, which sounded to the kitten as his language to them. That went on for a bit. Too long! The kit pawed at the leg of the twoleg that was near him. The Twoleg turned her attention to him again. She picked up his basket. The brown little cat flinched agaim, but this feeling, was so strange and so fantastic! Was this how it felt to fly? An uncontrolled purr rouse from his throath along with a hopeful 'Thank you!' while looking up with his wide, warm eyes. Were they going to help? The basket swung at the kitten tried to stick to one place and went under his blanket. They better feed him soon, because he was starving! [] ❀ ♡ -------------------- ♡ ❀ [] Hi!! So on the 15th of October, the results for the Paws of Pride litter came out, and I won Grouse <33 A special thank you to for organizing this litter, and to the entirety of the admin team for picking me! I promise to take care of this little one the best I can! [] ❀ ❀ [] So this was the night of autumn Grouse was found by his housefolk at 2 moons old 'in an old wicker basket and bathed in starlight'! His housefolk will be a younger couple named Ava and Ptarmigan 'Migan' Clark! (She/her and she/he.) They have just finished settling down in their new house at the very edge of the Twolegplace a couple weeks ago, of which I will draw a rough floorplan soon. [] ❀ ♡ -------------------- ♡
