And now, this grey kitty, with a bump on her head was looking into the face of a strange man, very far away from home, speaking a language she did not understand. Emily was confused, hungry, and her head hurt from being bounced around in the packing crate. All she wanted to do that morning was explore her neighborhood. Being the curious cat that she was, Emily slipped out of the house when Donny left for school. For a while, she was having a grand time exploring. But Emily was an indoor cat, who didn’t know about the dangerous things that can happen when wandering into strange places.
