Cat-Catastrophe! by Tilda

Crack! Bang - goes lightning on a dark and stormy night, as all the cats scurry into
their hiding places.
They jump through pipes, in and out, around corners and into the darkness.

“MEOW” cries one, “MEOW” cries another.

BOOM goes the thunder.

There was a small cat called Charlotte, one called Sophie and one called Jack.
“I don’t like lightening” meowed Sophie.
“Me neither” cries Jack.

BOOM!!
Suddenly Charlotte disappeared into a small hole beneath them.
“Mmmeow”!!! She cried.
THUMP - she landed suddenly just as another cat came creeping out of the shadows.
She was a small cat with white fur, pink and blue patches and pink sparkly ears.
“Hello, my name is Lilly - what’s yours?”
“My name is Charlotte.”

Just then, they heard voices coming from the hole.
“CHARLOTTE - are you ok? What can we do to help you out? yelled Sophie.
“Why don’t you find some rope to pull me out” yelled back Charlotte.

Jack and Sophie went scampering off to find some rope or a ladder.
“Come with me” said Lilly.
“Where to?” asked Charlotte.
Lilly didn’t answer, so the two of them silently crept along the sewage pipes until
suddenly they were in the alleyway again.

“Thank you very much” sobbed Charlotte.

Out of nowhere a stranger grabbed them and shook them like he would do to a
flea,
“Hey, stop it we don’t like it”meowed Lilly as they were plonked into a cage.

Suddenly green gas filled the cage and the cats were fast asleep.
Back at the hole, Sophie and Jack had a ladder and rope with them by their
side.

“CHARLOTTE” they called out “are you there Charlotte ?”

No one replied, so they climbed down themselves.

Sophie and Jack crept along the sewage pipes until they were peeping out of a door
and into the city streets. Then they saw Lilly and Charlotte fast asleep in a cage
with green in the air.

“I know how to save them” whispered Jack to Sophie “ all we need to do is quietly
creep up behind the man and wrap our rope around his feet. I’ll distract him.”
“Okay” whispered Sophie.

But before they could get to work, they realised they were too late, the man had
all ready gone, taking their friends with him.
“We missed them”cried Jack,
Sophie and Jack chased after the van as it zoomed off ahead of them!

“We will never catch them, never” thought Sophie, “never” she thought again. They crept sneakily along the pavement and across the city, as day turned into night. Then the van stopped and the man stepped out, turning in time to see two more cats, “This is my lucky day!!” he said.
Suddenly a small girl came hopping out of the van as well. Catch those cats for me NOW Ruby!” shouted the man.

The girl chased the cats until finally morning came. The cats were puffing, so was
Ruby. Before Ruby could catch them, they kept running away. Suddenly Sophie found a red and blue scarf that ‘purr-fectly’ fitted.

“Come on Sophie, we have to go, we can try to help them tomorrow” whispered
Jack
“NO” meowed Sophie “we are going to save them today”…
They crept back to the van where Ruby and the man were having an argument about Sophie and Jack.

They quietly moved to the cage where Lilly and Charlotte were sleeping and
opened the door to set them free. Charlotte woke up and looked around same as
Lilly “Who are you?” said Jack “I am Lilly and who are you?”.
I’m Jack and this is Sophie” said Jack “Now let’s go before they realise you’ve both
escaped.”

They quickly scampered back to the alleyway and back to the safety of their home!

The End!!!!!!!!!!
