“Please come here, Oreo!”
Lauren Smith begged to her pet
cat. Oreo lifted a paw and just
stood there. Meanwhile,
Lauren’s dog, Coco, watched
Lauren’s angry expression.
Finally, after several hours,
Lauren gave up. “This is the
worst cat ever! He won’t eat
junk food and now he won’t
obey me!” she complained.
That night, she dumped Oreo
outside and took Coco into her
bed with her. “Don’t you think
Oreo is a nuisance?” she asked
Coco. Coco gave a bark, but no
one knew that she was
formatting a plan to get Oreo
back in the house.
The next morning, Coco and
Lauren woke up to find Oreo
gone. “Oh no! I am the worst
pet owner ever!” Lauren
complained. When Lauren went
back into the house, Coco set
out to find Oreo. She followed
the smell of tuna leading from
the door. “Arf! Arf!” she barked.
When she reached the end of
the street, she found Oreo with
his paw stuck under the trash
can. Coco thought: “They pick
up the trash today! I’d better
hurry.” Coco lifted the trash can
with one paw, and Oreo
climbed out. He hugged Coco,
but Coco was thinking: “Oh
boy. Oreo can get himself into
trouble sometimes.”
Just as they were about to head
back to the house, Oreo sniffed
the air. “I smell fish!” he
exclaimed and ran for the big
box on the corner. There were
2 fish inside who claimed that
their names were Beauty and
Beast and they used to be
owned by Lauren. “She kicked
us out because we would
splash water everywhere!”
Beast complained. Coco loaded
the box onto her back and they
started back to the house. On
the way, Oreo tripped over a
empty cat treat box. “Junk
food!” he shouted and ran
down the street without Coco,
Beauty, and Beast.
Lauren greeted Coco, Oreo,
Beauty, and Beast at the door.
“Good dog!” she told Coco and
gave her a treat. “Junk food!”
Oreo exclaimed and ran out of
the room. Then Lauren spotted
the fish. “Beauty! Beast! I’m
sorry I didn’t treat you well. I’ll
make it up.” She put the fish on
a table by the window. Since it
was late, the pets and Lauren
all went to sleep.
The next morning, Oreo was gone
again. “Go, Coco!” Lauren
commanded, and Coco ran out
of the pet door, thinking about
what would happen now.
