In a cozy corner of Mrs. Tulip’s bakery, there lived a chubby, gray cat named Whiskers. He loved to nap among the warm bread loaves.
Every day, Whiskers would wake up, stretch lazily, and then watch Mrs. Tulip work. The smell of fresh cookies always made him purr.
But one morning, the bakery was filled with laughter. The children had gathered to hear Mrs. Tulip read funny tales.
Whiskers, curious about the noise, decided to peek from behind the bread shelf.
As he listened to the stories, he started to giggle. A cat giggling was something no one had seen before!
The children noticed the giggling Whiskers and laughed even harder, finding the sight of him very funny.
Mrs. Tulip saw Whiskers and decided to make him part of the story, weaving tales of a magical laughing cat.
Laughing along, Whiskers felt happy to be the center of attention and performed little silly dances.
Every time Mrs. Tulip mentioned the laughing cat in her stories, Whiskers would let out a sweet 'meow' of joy.
At the end of the day, the children didn't want to leave the bakery without saying goodbye to their new friend.
They gave Whiskers gentle pats and promised to come back for more stories and giggles.
With a full heart and a sleepy head, Whiskers curled up in his favorite spot, ready for another dream full of laughter.
