The Great Cat Council Part 3: Deputy Whiskers’ Wool Ball Adventure

Once upon a time, Deputy Whiskers had a brilliant idea. He wanted to build a machine that would create wool balls for all his feline friends.

As he gathered all the necessary materials and began building, Whiskers encountered some setbacks. First, he accidentally dropped a screw and it rolled under the couch, never to be seen again.

“Oh no!” he cried. “This is not a good start.”

Next, when he plugged in his homemade wood cutting machine, it immediately short-circuited, sending sparks flying everywhere.

Professor Furball, who had been watching from afar, exclaimed, “What the fur?! Are you trying to burn down the entire cat kingdom?”

Despite these minor mishaps, Whiskers was determined to succeed. However, things only seemed to get worse when the machine spewed out a giant puff of smoke, causing Whiskers to sneeze and nearly fall off his chair.

“Wool balls, you say?” meowed Professor Furball, raising a skeptical eyebrow. “Are you sure that’s a good idea?”

“Oh, it’ll be paw-esome!” replied Deputy Whiskers confidently. “Just watch me work my magic.”

Then, a bolt came loose and ricocheted off the wall, narrowly missing Whiskers’ tail.
