Thunder Paws studies the world, grows in strength, stature and wisdom


As the precocious kitten, 
Thunder Paws, 
grew in strength and stature, 
he spent much time gazing out the window, 
contemplating. 

He considered the world, 
and all things in it. 

Thunder Paws dwelt 
upon the question 
as to why things
were as they were, 
and what, if anything, 
an orange and white cat 
could do 
to make them better 

- if not for everyone, 
at least for 
the orange and white cat.

And sometimes, during Thunder's studies, 
he observed some truly amazing things. 

Rye was among those things, 
as was his fingers, 
reaching toward Thunder 
from the other side, 
yet, unable to be touched
by the paw
of a kitten.

This gave Thunder much
to ponder, 
as he was
a cat
who wanted
to understand
the workings
of...

...everything.

Thunder Paws, we know how frustrating it is to see those fingers and not be able to touch them. We bet it didn't take you long to work out why.
